Oreo Pudding Cookies

To be quite honest, I had no idea what these even were but per baby brother and his friends requests, I tested these in my kitchen, having a good ole’ time ripping open nostalgic pudding packs, that unmistakable smell taking me back to middle school again.  I produced this recipe by scaling back both the..read more

Flourless Chocolate Cookies

flourless-chocolate

These cookies are light and crisp on the edges, chewy and rich in the center, and have a delicate crackly crust on top, a hybrid cookie and brownie if you will.  I actually made these when I ran out of flour and I’m happy to report I’ve made them several times afterwards because they’re just..read more

You can’t help but feel naughty when you have melting chocolate smudged all over your fingers, gooey caramel dripping everywhere and cookie crumbs that won’t be brushed off absentmindedly this time. Nope. You’ll be..read more

2-ingredient-cake

Say what? Now, I have to be honest.  This cake came to fruition on one of those lean-ration days when my fridge bulb seemed to stare back blankly at me, apathetic to a grumbling tummy because I’d failed to feed it first.  Fair enough.  I managed to gather some eggs {which is forever my default}..read more

This recipe is Dad approved. He is addicted to these things so I was more than happy to whip some up that were homemade where I could control the quality/quantity. I also figured that there could be a million things that could be done to spruce up this classic candy bar, including but not limited..read more

Bacon Cheese Fritters

bacon-cheese-fritters

This idea sprung up on me one morning as I sat eating a late breakfast of heavy, streaky slices of bacon, topped with melted, broiled cheese, on crunchy, golden toast.  These bacon cheese fritters are exactly what I had for dinner that night…an echo of an earlier meal but made even more delicious with the..read more
