There are a ton of different cobbler recipes out there. You can find cobblers made in a baking dish, a cake pan and a cast iron skillet. Some cobblers call for the crusty/cake mixture to be poured below the fruit, others call for it on top of the fruit. Some people mix in nuts and… Continue reading Peach & Blackberry Cobbler

Valentine’s Brownie Truffles
I don't usually make Valentine's treats, but when I do, I go all out. I wanted to make something nice and sweet for my coworkers after a long week of weather coverage last week. It's nice to have a treat every once in a while--and they don't last long around the newsroom. These brownie truffles… Continue reading Valentine’s Brownie Truffles
Gingerbread Cupcakes with Eggnog Buttercream
Christmas is almost here. You can feel the anticipation in the air. December 23rd is usually I day I spend making goodies and snack for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I won't be doing that this year because I have to work, but I'll be with everybody in spirit who prepares for the big holiday.… Continue reading Gingerbread Cupcakes with Eggnog Buttercream
Black Forest Cookies
One of my favorite types of cake is a black forest cake. It's a luscious chocolate cake with a rich cherry filling and it's absolutely sublime. Anytime I'm at a bakery and I spot a black forest cake I'll ask for a slice. It's the king of cakes, in my opinion. Imagine my surprise when… Continue reading Black Forest Cookies

I've got a few Christmas Eve snack night recipes to share, along with some more dessert recipes that are sure to hit the spot.… Continue reading Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzels
Thin Mint Cups
One of my favorite things to do over the holidays is to make treats and candies for my neighbors and friends. I've been experimenting in the kitchen with different treats this year and have unfortunately made rather small batches of each, but I'm hoping I can knock out a bunch next weekend. One of the… Continue reading Thin Mint Cups
Cranberry Ambrosia
One thing that's very much a delicacy in the South is Ambrosia. It's taken to parties and cookouts in the spring and summertime and is a staple. I've grown up on two types of ambrosia: pink & green. The green stuff also goes by "Watergate salad" for some unknown reason. My mom used to make… Continue reading Cranberry Ambrosia
Marshmallow Pumpkin Pie
I think I may have found the best version of pumpkin pie yet. This is a no-bake pie so it's no-mess and no-fuss. On top of that, it's exceptionally good. It's sweeter than your average pumpkin pie (that could be from the whipped cream) but it's got this incredible flavor and texture. It's almost like… Continue reading Marshmallow Pumpkin Pie
Cocoa Bourbon Balls
The holiday baking season is here! I've officially made my first treats of the season. Funnily enough, though, they were both no-bake treats. It still counts though, right? This recipe came from one of my old recipe tins. I must've written it down somewhere between 8-10 years ago. While I was going through the tin… Continue reading Cocoa Bourbon Balls
Apple Pie Churro Bombs
There's something about fresh, home-grown apples. There's so delectable. Juicier. Sweeter. I moved into a home that had a fairly mature apple tree and it has yielded some great apples the last two autumns. My apple tree isn't alone, either. I've spotted two others like it in the city, and a woman came up to… Continue reading Apple Pie Churro Bombs
