Excuse me while I attempt to contain frantic excitement that I am FINALLY ABLE TO POST THIS! After so, so, so many recipe tests and so many weeks of this sitting in my bank of delicious food waiting for its turn to join the internet world, today is finally the day! And - people - it is a special day. This recipe is everything. It is one of my favorite things that I've ever posted. It is... ...
Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies
Um, hello. Remember last week when I posted this Peppermint Bark recipe and went on and on about how I can't bake in the slightest? STILL TRUE but makes the creation of these cookies that much more miraculous. I mean, I 100% cheated by using cake mix, but I'm okay with that. Cheating is highly necessary for me when it comes to baking. On top of the chocolate cake mix that we use as the base for ...
15 Minute Peppermint Bark
Hello, my name is Annie, and I am incompetent when it comes to baking. I rarely post desserts on here because I've been known to ruin a BOXED BROWNIE mix. Aka I can't bake. Hence why the first dessert I've posted on here in I don't know how long is literally melted chocolate that you spread onto a baking sheet...holllaaahhhhh - this is my kind of homemade dessert! And the cool thing is that ...
Skinny Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse
It's the first pumpkin recipe of the season!!! Ah, fall food makes me so happy. Pumpkin, caramel apple, cinnamon, nutmeg - doesn't it all just make you feel warm and fuzzy inside? What is it about fall that makes you feel that way? It's like a feeling of nostalgia, but I don't even remember doing anything particularly special during fall while growing up. Who knows - it's a mystery. But one that I ...
S’mores Rice Krispies Treats
I am sitting in a super cute coffee shop right now sipping a drink that I'm not even sure you could call "coffee" with its amount of sugar. It's called a Snickers Mocha...and it tastes like a melted snickers bar. And I get it so often that this one was free since I built up so many rewards. Something to brag about? Probably not...but it's so addictively delicious. For those of you who work from ...
Peppermint Bark Christmas Crunch
Whooooooooops sorry for my crazy absence last week! I wasn't feelin' so hot, food didn't sound good, and I couldn't bring myself to write delicious things about my recipes when they all sounded "blech" to me. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL. I have three supa yummy recipes comin' your way this week, though. So...forgive me? Forgive me if I tell you all about the delicious Christmas treat that is: PEPPERMINT ...
Cheater Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls with Maple Glaze
Um...what happened. I know I have said this before...but I mean it every time...and I'm saying it again...these are probably the best things I have ever made! I need to never buy any of these ingredients again, because the cinnamon rolls are so delicious that they are 100% wiped out within two days ?. For the sake of my pants still fitting, these tasty treats will only be allowed in my house on ...
Homemade Pumpkin Spice Marshmallows
OKAY, people, it has taken some serious self control to wait all the way until Friday to post this recipe. I have been dying to put these marshmallows on here all week. They have just been sitting on my counter...staring at me every time I walk by...saying "Hello, look how pretty and fall-y and fluffy and delicious we are! POST US." So...I am very excited to finally be able to do so. And I have ...
Popped Quinoa Crunch Bars
Like...what is this. It might be the coolest thing ever. Wrap your minds around this, people - you are eating a chocolate peanut butter swirl bar, but WAIT. It has a bunch of quinoa loaded up in there too. Say whaaaaaat?!? That's right. Popped quinoa. In your chocolate bar. What is this life...I'm diggin' it. Chances are high that you are sitting there saying "Raw quinoa in my chocolate ...
Apple Pie Cookies with Cinnamon Whipped Cream
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness. THESE ARE THE BEST THINGS EVER!! As you all know by now, I am not a baker. Desserts are not my strong point, so I had very little faith that these little cuties would turn out well. But they were ammmmaazziinnngggg. I'm not sure how much credit I can actually take for these since I used pre-made pie crust and canned apple pie filling (....I ...
