A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
I’ve been wanting to make these cookies for a while but was missing a really important ingredient. That would be willpower. Dark chocolate, dense cookie, caramel, salt – seriously, how does one resist? They kind of just call your name. Or maybe they just call my name? A few weeks ago I was picking up some groceries at Trader Joe’s, trying to mind my own business, and they had these caramel wafer stroopwafel cookies hanging right by the juice boxes on {Read More}
A few weeks ago I shared McCormick’s 2013 Flavor Forecast. With a number of trends and flavors that we can look for in 2013, I was really drawn to one particular recipe – the Cajeta Sauce With Anise, also known as Mexican Caramel Sauce. Spiced up caramel sauce? Sign me up! This recipe ties into a few of the aspects of the Flavor Forecast, including “Global My Way“. A caramel sauce kicked up with some warmth from spices sounded amazing {Read More}
So I think that I might have found the most incredible recipe ever. And I do not say that lightly. Let me just show you. Caramel Pecan Rolls anyone? The recipe for these over the top delicious rolls comes from folks over at the Become A Better Baker. They asked if I would like to check out their series of videos and possibly share one, along with a recipe, with my readers. Um, yes, I think I would be {Read More}
I have a great recipe for you today that is easy to make and will give you a great new option for your holiday cookie trays. Cinnamon Caramel Swirl Bars! I was recently asked by McCormick to be a part of their Seconal Seven Flavors Holiday Program. So many of our favorite flavors of the holiday season center around seven different flavors… nutmeg, ginger, sage, vanilla, peppermint, poultry seasoning and cinnamon. I get to represent cinnamon, something I use all {Read More}
Out of every sweet or treat I’ve ever made for the holidays, one item remains my most favorite ever… The Magic Cookie Bar. Or Seven Layer Bar. Call it whatever you want, it really is magic in a pan. And not only are they insanely delicious they are SO easy to make. You don’t even need a bowl (though for this version I used one bowl, but minimal clean up – I promise). Hello, how great is that??? And I {Read More}
Let’s talk chocolate. Really amazing chocolate. Chocolate you can use to make things like this… You know the saying “go to your happy place”? Well, I’m happy to announce I’ve found my happy place. It has been hiding in a box of Julia Baker Confections Chocolates. Yeah, right in there. Wait for it… Julia Baker Confections French Caramel Truffle. Quite possibly one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. If I was asked to be on that show “The Best {Read More}
This is one of those recipes that I actually didn’t intend to share on the website. I made these for my daughter’s teacher, for her daughter’s birthday. She mentioned that she liked salted caramel (the glorious goodness that it is), and I thought these would be a fun treat for her 15th Birthday. I made them late at night so I didn’t take my step by step photos or any do any of my normal “I’m blogging this” type of {Read More}
Time to share the final stuffed brownie cupcake. The Caramel Coconut Cookie Brownie Cupcake. Samoa lovers, take note! No, I don’t have a secret stash of Girl Scout Cookies or a sweet little scout supplier. I have these… Keebler Coconut Dreams. And they do the job quite nicely and fit perfectly into the cupcake liners. Caramel + Coconut + Chocolate = Cookie Goodness. Like I did with the other stuffed brownie cupcakes, I stuck my “stuffing item” (the cookies) into {Read More}
These are kind of amazing. And with a name like Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie Stuffed Brownie Cupcakes With Cookie Dough Frosting, how could they not be? Even more amazing when you realize that there is a cookie inside. A caramel filled chocolate chip cookie. And they are frosted with cookie dough frosting. How I have gone this long in life without cookie dough frosting is a mystery to me. The stuff is life altering, it’s that good. These are actually {Read More}
One of my absolute flavor combinations is salty and sweet. It’s hard to beat – almost perfection. I recently came across these Pretzel Balls from HK Anderson online, and after searching (obsessively) for months, I finally found them. I found some small sized bags of these at Big Lots. Mine were called Popcorn Style Pretzel Balls, but I think they are the same thing. The company has a product finder online, but most of the stores I went to {Read More}
One of my all time favorite flavor combinations is caramel, chocolate and coconut. Just divine. So much flavor and so much texture. Today I have a quick and easy way for you to enjoy caramel, coconut and chocolate as well as an amazing contest to tell you about – you could win a trip to the Duncan Hines test kitchen for a bakers weekend! First, let’s start with cupcakes. While I was making the Caramel Chocolate Pretzel Cupcake Cones last {Read More}
So recently I was wasting time doing important stuff on Pinterest, and I came across something that stopped me in my tracks. PRETZEL CONES. Did you hear me? PRETZEL CONES PEOPLE???? Shut the front door! It was a life altering moment. Can you even begin to imagine the possibilities??? Holy sweet and salty combinations batman! And I HAD to have them. ASAP, stat, tout de suite, now now NOW. I quickly found that Cone Guys are {Read More}
