Guys, let’s talk football food. As I have said over and over again, I do not get football. I don’t understand the plays, the scoring rules, or the commentary. What I do know is that you cannot watch football without food. Lots and lots of amazing food! With the Superbowl coming up this Sunday (can you…
Stuffed Oatmeal Cookie Bars
We are slowly getting back to reality in my house. The Christmas tree is down. The garland is put away. The Christmas decorations have been carefully wrapped back up and placed in their proper storage containers in the attic. The pantry is full of our go-to pantry staples (canned beans, pasta, canned tomatoes, brown rice)…
Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies
These babies are our number one go-to cookie. Because seriously, who does not love Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies? They are loved by: My crew. My cousins. My friends. My former roommates in college. My teachers. My Girl Scout troop. My nurses at the hospital. Oh, and me! Why are they absolutely addicting? Because they balance…
Pretzel S’more Hot Chocolate
Winter has officially arrived to my neck of the woods. Chilly temperatures, frosted window panes, and snow flurries are now a constant, causing me to want to stay curled up in my bed ALL DAY with a book and a hot beverage. Like hot chocolate. My obsession with this wintery treat started during my study…
Chocolate Peppermint Bark Cookies
Holiday cookies are my jam. Gingerbread, sugar cookie, molasses crackle, peanut butter kiss… I probably love the holiday cookie tray more than the Big Man himself. While I am obsessed with our traditional favorites, this year I wanted to make something a bit different for Santa’s cookie plate. As I was rooting through my pantry…
Lazy Girl Gingerbread Cookies
I LOVE gingerbread cookies. But not traditional gingerbread cookies. (it’s a bit confusing…) As I have said before on the blog, I had an interesting experience with gingerbread when I was young. At a holiday party, I got so excited when I saw a platter of decorated cookies. Being a small kid with no self-restraint,…
Small Batch Blackberry Peach Crisp
Happy Post-Thanksgiving Weekend, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful day celebrating with family and friends and eating all the amazing dishes! We totally did it up this year with a delicious stuffed turketta (boneless turkey wrapped around sausage/veggie stuffing) and all the fixin’s (onion gravy is my jam), so I decided to whip up…
Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread
Let’s talk about banana bread. In my opinion, banana bread is should be called the “blank canvas” of sweet breads. The basic recipe is delicious by itself, but you can add different flavorings and mix-ins to create something new and delightful. Basically, anything is fair game. (so get creative!) I had some super ripe bananas…
Salty-N-Sweet Harvest Bark
Happy Halloween Eve!! Tomorrow is all about the sweets and treats, which means that I am going all out for our Halloween celebration for our family friends. And I’m bringing bark. Salty-N-Sweet Harvest Bark. I am obsessed with chocolate bark. What is better than a layer of really, really good chocolate that is topped with…
Stuffed Baked Apples
This week has been a doozy. Between balancing work, transferring the blog to a new host, having the blog break during said transfer, and figuring out what to pack for FNCE, it’s been slightly chaotic in my house. When life gets busy, I need to have an arsenal of recipes that I can turn to….
