On Friday, little Miles turned one. How a his first year went by so quickly baffles me. To think this time last year I was snuggling a very sleepy, very tiny, new born baby boy makes my heart burst a little. I loved that new born baby stage. But one year old Miles is pretty incredible…
Desserts
Browned Butter Vanilla Bean Blondies
Okay, is it browned butter or brown butter? I see it used differently all the time and really have no clue which is correct. In my head I think, “well the butter is browned so it should be called browned butter ____ ” ( for whatever it is you’ve made) right? Does it even matter? Whether it’s browned or brown,…
Hot Fudge Sundae Cocoa Krispie Treats
We are taking a last minute road-trip to visit my family in Colorado for the long weekend. The nine hour drive with a busy 11-month old who hates his car seat has me terrified. Any traveling tips? Sleepy drugs? Just kidding. But while I’m stuck in a car for the next ten hours someone please…
The Very Best Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies
My good friend Claire shared this Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe from Orangette with me months ago and I just got around to making them last week. Actually, Brett made them. I wanted a treat for our road trip to Vegas over the weekend (Happy Mother’s Day to me!!) and after having two cookie…
Biscoff Cookie Butter S’mores
S’more anyone??? I’ve been dreaming about s’mores ever since reading Jaclyn’s post about creative s’more ideas. Then a friend made us s’mores at her house the other day. It’s like I forgot how good they are. And it got me all excited for weenie roasts, sitting around a fire, and making s’mores for dessert. We…
Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Oreo Chunk Cookies { And a Giveaway!}
Last week Brett and I decided we were going to eat really healthy. Those Skinny Tuna Melts were about as far as I got. {They were delicious!} But I made these cookies over the weekend and you can just imagine my husband’s excitement to have them lying around the house. I think sometimes he thinks I am trying to sabotage…
Snickerdoodle Cake {Take Two}
After making this Snickerdoodle Cake on Sunday for our Easter dessert (and devouring so much I’m still sick two days later) I realized just how much I love it and how it deserves another day in the spotlight, with some better photos to showcase it. I’ve actually shared it before but made it as a…
Soft-Baked Double Chocolate Cookies
Are you guys ready for Easter? Do you have your menu all planned out? I don’t! Turns out we are hosting dinner here with family, so I better get with it. You can guarantee it’ll be a super simple and not-quite traditional Easter meal. So while on many other food blogs you’ll find great…
Browned Butter Oatmeal Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies
The last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind. After church on Sunday I was torn between two things: taking a much needed nap (which I never do) or making some cookies (which I always do). I opted for making cookies. Cookies with some browned butter. I know I’m a little late to…
Key Lime & Coconut Cream Pushpops & a Duncan Hines Sweet Treat Giveaway!
My site got a little makeover over the weekend ! Do you like? I’m loving the fresh, clean look! I’ve still got some tidying up to do but once that’s all done I’ll go over some of the new features with you:) But for today I’ve got a fun recipe and a fun little giveaway…
