A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
While I usually make my cookies from scratch, sometimes I do buy premade dough. When I do buy ready to bake cookie dough, it usually come in the form of a school fundraiser… Let’s face it, sometimes premade cookie dough is perfect – it’s quick and it’s easy, and often pretty darn tasty. But, it can be improved upon with a bit of creativity and your store bought dough can become something special. If you are so inclined, you could {Read More}
One of my all time favorites sweet treats is the Rice Krispies Treat. There is something so simple and so delicious about them. They are incredibly easy to make and they make a fantastic base for creative recipes. You can cover them with chocolate. Put them on a stick. Shape and build with them. Stuff them with surprises. I’ve yet to try anything with them that hasn’t worked. I’ve shared quite a few recipes and ideas that use Rice Krispies {Read More}
First it was peanut butter balls in chocolate cupcakes. Then it was Oreo truffles in vanilla cupcakes. This time it’s pink velvet cake pops stuffed into devil’s food cupcakes. This stuffing stuff in cupcakes things is kinda fun. I made these for my daughter’s second birthday over the weekend. They are apparently great fun to play with. Pretty simple – the cake was a Duncan Hines Devil’s Food cake mix. For the cake pops, I first made a pink {Read More}
When wandering down the Easter isle one day, I saw this… And I had to buy it. Because I had to make these. Cotton Candy Cupcakes. Inspired by the amazing cupcakes at American Cupcake (see a pic over on Bakerella). This is really more of an idea than it is an actual recipe. I kept these pretty simple. Just a box white cake mix and a quick buttercream frosting. I added food coloring and cotton candy flavoring to both. {Read More}

I can’t believe Easter is this weekend. I feel completely unprepared – probably because my little one’s second birthday is also this weekend (which I am equally unprepared for). Time flies crazy fast! There are SO many cute and creative Easter ideas all around, that I had to share some of my favorites with an Easter Bites From Other Blogs. I’ll start with a few of my own Easter ideas… PEEPS Style Sugar Cookie Pops by Love From The {Read More}
After making cupcakes stuffed with peanut butter balls this weekend, I had to come up with a nut free version for my nut allergy kiddo, who was feeling all kinds of left out of the stuffed cupcake enjoyment. Since we love making cupcake pops with the Oreo Truffle recipe, I figured I would try that. Worked like a charm! To make these, you will first want to make your Oreo Truffles. Follow the directions from this post – it’s super {Read More}
Everyone seems to be loving the Chicago Metallic Brownie Bowls as much as I do (make sure to go enter to win yours – I have three sets to give away!). From the day they arrived, my daughter has been begging me to fill one with chocolate mousse. She wore me down, but I decided I would cheat a bit and make a super quick and easy mousse using Cool Whip and hot cocoa mix. I was NOT expecting it {Read More}
