If you’re a fan of zucchini bread, then you’ll be a fan of this recipe. If you don’t think you’re a fan of zucchini bread, then you need to make this recipe and become a convert. Immediately. I know it’s seemingly inconceivable to use a green vegetable to any degree of success in a sweet […]

This is the original biscuit. The biscuit that I always come back to, the one I’ve been making for years. Let’s be real- any time you take cheddar and mix it together with herbs, good things happen. But when you take them and pulse them in the blender with cream cheese (and a few other […]

Yes, it’s that time of year. The time of year to embrace all that apple and cake have to offer… ideally melded together into one fluffy, buttery, cinnamon-scented coffee cake of autumnal goodness. (Is it possible to say that something is fluffy and rich at the same time? I wanted to say rich a moment […]

I knew I was going to fall hard for this recipe as soon as I stumbled upon it. White chocolate? Definitely interested. Cashews? Keep talking. Coffee in the batter? Um hmm. White chocolate frosting, generously slathered over top (my own twist on the recipe)? Preheat the oven and let’s get these blondies baking. (Interested in […]

So after I made the beautiful batch of White Chocolate Cashew Blondies with 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar, I realized that the recipe called for 1 1/2 cups of packed light brown sugar. Allow me to clarify the magnitude of this mistake: I, purveyor and promotor of all things sweet (ahem, check out the […]

Chocolate chip cookies are fiercely competitive with one another. And why blame them? Everyone likes a good chocolate chip cookie, so cookies have had to step up their game. In a cut-throat cookie world where Google lists about 11 million links to “best chocolate chip cookies”, how does a binge-seeking baker separate the Toll House “please the masses” […]

Sometimes it’s okay to spend an inordinate amount of time in the kitchen, slaving over an intricate and special dessert that wows a crowd. But what if you could spend next to no time in the kitchen, with the same outcome? Sold. The pros: this glitzy gluten-free ganache tart recipe needs hardly any baking time, requires no need for […]

I am usually unflappable when I make baking mistakes (maybe because I make them on a sadly regular basis, or maybe because I’m a naively wide-eyed optimist and find ways to make lemon cornmeal shortbread tarts out of lemons and such). But some screw-ups have the ability to seriously flap me, if that’s even a word. […]

Tasty, totally healthy, and easy. Check, check, check. You know when you’re on a plane, and you’re easily engrossed in anything you have to read in front of you (to stave off the boredom on a flight to Winnipeg, for example), with the exception of the Sky Mall magazine which features hideous ornamental lawn […]

Hm. This was my first take on the Healthy Peanut Butter Balls, which should have been the world’s easiest treat to make (other than the Rocky Road Chunks, maybe, since they don’t require baking either. Nope- these PB Balls are even easier than the Rocky Road Chunks, because you have to actually melt chocolate for […]

Happiness is… a dessert made of chocolate, marshmallows, white chocolate chips and walnuts. Happiness is… an easy-to-make dessert that doesn’t require you to turn your oven on (and in my case, that’s a great thing since there’s something wrong with the pilot light and we need to use a lighter to coax our oven to start these […]

Does a cookie seem less sinful if there’s something as angelic as oatmeal in it? We all know that oatmeal reduces cholesterol, and has fiber, and well, maybe negates the little indulgence associated with butter and sugar and chocolate? And corn syrup? Yeah, no, I know. But work with me here… at least these […]
