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 […]
Rustic Peach Tart
Peaches were 49 cents a pound at Sprouts. As a result, I had to do something with peaches. They are NEVER that cheap. I almost didn’t believe it. Almost. We are getting into that prime peach time here in Colorado. We’re almost there. We still have a couple of weeks to go, and if […]
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 […]
Sopaipillas (or Sopapillas) with Cannoli Cream & Fresh Fruit
Ever since our recent road trip to the Grand Canyon, I have been craving sopaipillas. Of course, I’m sure most of us have had a sopaipilla at some point in our lives. It’s really just a Southwestern/Mexican/Texan/Latin American/South American/Central American (yeah they serve them just about everywhere!) version of a donut. I forgot about […]
Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow and Fruit Skewers
Because the 4th of July is right around the corner, that’s why! I have seen many “skewer-type” recipes out there that delve into the dessert category, but I wanted to go a slightly different route. I originally wanted to do this recipe with pound cake because pound cake is absolutely delicious and it’s holds […]
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Pretzel Bundles
I say “bundles” because I didn’t know what else to call them. I was craving something super sweet today, so I went a little crazy. Actually, I went crazy in the form of pretzel bundles, vanilla bean cookie sandwiches and cheesecake bars (which will be up later this week). I know, it’s a good […]
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 […]
Strawberry and Rhubarb Milkshakes
I’m kind of obsessed with rhubarb here lately, and since I had some left over from the bars I made the other day, I had to find SOME way to use it. This milkshake was wonderful. It was even more wonderful after a 9 mile run today. Although, I think it most clearly resembles a […]
Brown Butter Rhubarb Cookie Bars
I feel like rhubarb often gets the pushed aside. It’s often looked over in the grocery store, and I bet you that many people don’t even know what it is. While I was grocery shopping the other day, I saw some rhubarb stalks just staring me in the face. Literally they were staring me down, […]
