I remember a conversation I once had with my brother about chocolate. We were both pretty young, and he asked me what my favorite type was. “That’s easy – milk chocolate!”, I said almost immediately. “It’s so yummy!” He responded that his favorite was dark – he liked how it was a little bitter – and … More Peppermint White Chocolate Brownies

Imagine a bed of tart apples, bubbling with sweetened juices and perfectly spiced with cinnamon. Strewn atop is a rich and buttery mixture of hearty oats and walnuts that soaks up each bit of fruity flavor. Is your mouth watering yet? This apple crisp is truly my idea of the perfect autumn dessert. It is at … More Apple Crisp

Chocolate chip cookies, passionfruit mousse, blondies, and now pumpkin pie?! I know, I’ve been posting way too many sweets lately (like that could ever be possible, haha)! I guess this is proof that I really am a desserts type of gal. What can I say, baking is my passion! To be honest, most of my … More Pumpkin Pie with Maple

These blondies are one of my very favorite treats! I came up with this recipe a few years ago, and have been making it for family and friends ever since. The bars are rich and dense, so a little goes a long way. Butterscotch chips (my favorite guilty pleasure) are the perfect addition, along with … More Blondies

This passionfruit coconut mousse is a fancy and fun dessert that’s surprisingly easy to make! I’m not very familiar with passionfruit, so coming up with this recipe was a bit of a shot in the dark. But luckily, it turned out delicious. I was gifted the fruits, and had so much fun trying my first one. … More Passionfruit Coconut Mousse

Last summer, I went on a quest to develop a recipe for the perfect chocolate chip cookies. I wanted a rich and buttery dough with hints of butterscotch and plenty of salt. I wanted each cookie to have a perfect, smooth exterior, slightly crisp edges, and a meltingly soft center. I wanted the bursts of rich, … More Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

Here’s another pumpkin recipe for ya! These cookies are so easy to throw together with just a few pantry ingredients – mostly pureed pumpkin and rolled oats. They’re moist, chewy, and not-too-sweet. Feel free to substitute the spices with two teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice, like the one sold at Trader Joe’s. A couple cookies … More Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies

In a daily eats post a few weeks ago I hinted that a recipe was coming for these cookies. I’ve been busy sharing with you a kale salad and pear blondies, but the time has come! These little cookies taste just like banana bread. They’re moist and subtly sweet, made even better by the crispy edges and … More Healthy Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Cookies

These blondies may not look like much, but they’re one of the best things I’ve made recently. The base is fortified with whole wheat flour and lightly sweetened with maple syrup and coconut sugar. This creates a surprisingly tender and moist crumb. Diced pears and a smattering of chocolate chips are incorporated throughout for extra sweetness. A touch … More Whole Wheat Pear Chocolate Chip Blondies

For me, seasons are defined just as much by baked goods as they are by the movement of the sun or the changing colors of the leaves. Buttery, cinnamon-infused apple crisp in fall, spicy gingerbread in winter, bright strawberry shortcake in spring, and for summer, this stone fruit cobbler. Lucky for me, I arrived home for … More Summer Peach Cobbler
