Carrot Cake Cookies

Ever crave something you’ve eaten before, but you know if you make it at home it just won’t hit the same? That’s how I felt about wanting a slice of carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. So instead of trying to bake a whole cake, I cured the craving kind of by turning it intoContinue reading “Carrot Cake Cookies”

Buddy the Elf’s Breakfast Cookies

No pasta here! Much like our Kitchen Trash Mix, this cookie idea came from trying to use up a few leftover ingredients in the pantry. With Christmas around the corner and Elf on my screen, I was inspired to make something full of fun flavors – something Buddy the Elf would definitely approve of. That’sContinue reading “Buddy the Elf’s Breakfast Cookies”

Butterscotch Cookies

Anyone else remember those classic hard butterscotch candies from childhood? I used to love them!

Southern Style Cabbage

I always find myself caught in a friendly debate about which side is better -collard greens or cabbage. For me, cabbage wins every time! I’ve had it just about every way you can imagine: rolled, fried, steamed, and of course, my favorite – Southern Style Cabbage. When fall rolls around, this dish is always inContinue reading “Southern Style Cabbage”

Maple Glazed Bundt Cake

When I think of fall, I instantly think of cinnamon, maple, and all those cozy, sweet flavors that make the season so comforting. I’ll admit I’ve always been more of a cookie person than a cake person but I wanted to challenge myself and dive deeper into cakes this year. With a lot of mapleContinue reading “Maple Glazed Bundt Cake”

Mixed Nut Pie

Sometimes the best recipes come from a little kitchen improvising. I had an extra pie crust on hand and a few leftover nuts in the pantry, so I figured – why not make a Mixed Nut Pie? I’d never made one before, but I used my favorite pecan pie as inspiration and went from there.Continue reading “Mixed Nut Pie”

Chocolate Espresso Pie

A coworker’s mother once made a chocolate pie that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about. After she moved away and the recipe was lost, I decided to experiment on my own.
