Vanilla Bean and Almond Biscotti
So our air conditioner broke, and it sucks. I had a conversation with my mom this morning about how to keep the house cool until it can be fixed, and she 100% advised me not to turn the oven on. Well, moms know best for sure, and I should have taken her advice. The […]
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Stuffed Krispie Treats
Oh and there’s some caramel (and maybe some sea salt) involved too, but I decided to stop there. For a split second, I though about maybe, possibly dipping them in a chocolate/peanut butter mixture, but that may have been taking it a bit too far. They are sweet…just a tad sweet (no, I’m kidding…they […]
Peppermint & White Chocolate Sugar Cookies
Well the 4th of July is right around the corner. If you haven’t had your picnics yet, I’m sure they are soon. In order to please Zach (I feel like I’m always pleasing Zach in the form of sweet treats (=), I decided to make him a peppermint cookie. Now I normally would not […]
Chocolate and Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches
Oh and there’s peanut butter too. I had to, just had to. I see all of these ice cream sandwich recipes popping up all over the “blogosphere,” and I couldn’t help but join in. Besides, ice cream is delicious. Brownies are delicious. Cookies are delicious. Why not smash them all into one? I thought […]
The Zach and Cilantro Saga – Day 1: Patriotic Peanut Butter Cookies
While Justine is out of town, we figured it would be a good idea to do a few posts contributed by me. I have decided to call this series of posts “The Zach and Cilantro Saga”. As you may already have guessed, these posts will most likely be something sweet and/or something fried because honestly, […]
Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Kara came to town! Yay! If you all are wondering, Kara is my sister and she’s super cool (sometimes). She has quite the sweet tooth so I had to whip her up something extra special yesterday for her arrival. We celebrated with roasted chicken and carrots, but the dessert was the best part. So great […]
Double Chocolate and Macadamia Nut Biscotti
Anise-free biscotti that is. There are few things on the planet that I dislike, and star anise or anything that tastes like black licorice is one of them. This may be why I dislike fennel so much, unless someone cooks the crap out of it. Then it’s ok. Maybe you can begin to understand why […]
Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Bacon Cookies w/ Vanilla Glaze
Well I know we just got finished making a million different types of cookies over the holidays, but what the heck. It’s been over a month since I last made a cookie. I know that I said I needed a break, but I really, really needed a cookie. So here we are, making cookies again. […]
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Granola Bars
Granola bars can be so annoying sometimes. I feel like every time we buy a store-bought granola bar, it isn’t how we expected it to be. It either lacked a certain sweetness…or saltiness. Most of the time they are WAY to hard. They get stuck in the bottom of the packaging, and you’d be lucky […]
