A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
For the final day in Magic Cookie Bar week, I decided to stick with the classic recipe, which in many ways, remains my favorite of the bunch. But given it’s the holidays, I decided to dress it up. It’s ready to hold it’s own on those cookie trays and at holiday parties… And I’m sharing my recipe today over on one of my favorite blogs, In Katrina’s Kitchen in her “I’ll Bring The Cookies” collection. If you haven’t {Read More}
Disclaimer #1… This post is totally NOT about baking. There, I said it, it’s out in the open. After a few years of trying to balance putting up enough holiday decorations to keep my oldest feeling happy and festive (she pretty much gets as excited for holiday decorating as Will Ferrell does in Elf – I kid you not) while not having any of the decor broken or destroyed by (or worse yet, hurting) her younger sister, I’ve found {Read More}
I love all my recipes, I really do. But some I love just a little extra. And this recipe is one of those. Have you ever wondered what would happen if two of your favorite holiday treats collide? Well, let me tell you, if those treats are Buckeye Ball Peanut Butter Balls and Magic Cookie Bars, it turns out to be a very, VERY good thing. Did I mention it’s a good thing? And if that incredible deliciousness isn’t enough, {Read More}
I have a theory that you can really never go wrong with cookies and cream. Exhibit A. Cookies & Cream Magic Cookie Bars. Yum! I made these earlier in the year and they are divine. I had planned a new recipe for today, but instead I have a toddler with the stomach flu, so baking had to get pushed to the back burner (really bad pun intended). But this recipe is incredible, so it really works out okay. So head {Read More}
Day 3 in 12 Days of The Best Holiday Recipes is all about cupcakes! I never cease to be amazed at how talented and creative cake and cupcake decorators are. I’m really only good at throwing sprinkles onto my cakes and cupcakes, so I am always humbled by their talents. So today we will take a look at some of the great holiday cupcakes that are out there. My contribution to this collection is my Christmas Cupcake Cones. I love, {Read More}
While thinking of different ingredients that could be used in seven layer magic cookie bars, I came across a combo so fabulous that I simply had to share. Hayley, also known as The Domestic Rebel, created Gingerbread 7 Layer Bars. Um, yes please! Holy bar loving amazingness! Hayley’s version uses the same Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Gingerbread Flavor Packet that I used for my Gingerbread Cinnamon Rolls (which happens to be the flavor that I fell in love with when {Read More}
Without fail the first sign of Christmas approaching in my house is the appearance of Egg Nog in my fridge. Egg nog, as a drink, is not my thing. I liked it as a kid, but as an adult it’s just a bit too, well, thick. My husband on the other hand… Now, I won’t say he has an Egg Nog addiction or anything, but if there was a 12 step program for “nog” as he calls it, it might {Read More}
I have always loved doing the Bites From Other Blogs Recipe Round Ups here on Love From The Oven. There are so many amazing and inspiring baking and bloggers sharing such incredible recipes and I always enjoy discovering them and sharing them. With the holidays bringing so many special flavors and treats and the web buzzing with delicious and creative recipes, I think 12 Days of The Best Holiday Recipes sounded like fun. Today we will kick the 12 Days {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}
When the folks at Smucker’s asked if I would like to share with you how my family enjoys topping our holiday and celebration desserts (and host an awesome giveaway for you with delicious Smucker’s toppings and a $100 American Express gift card!), I was more than happy to take part. It just so happens that Smucker’s products are often used to make what is quite possibly my family’s favorite celebratory dessert… Cookie A La Modes. In this house, especially for {Read More}
Ready for a really cute winter treat that is surprisingly easy to make? Let me introduce you to Hot Cocoa Pudding Mugs… This recipe is from Jell-O, and while they look a bit challenging to create, I promise you they are super simple. These would be so fun to serve at a party. Jell-O even gives you a recipe option to create an “adult” version of these using some creme de cocoa or peppermint schnapps. I had photos of the {Read More}
I really am such a lucky girl that I get to create yummy treats for one of my favorite companies, PEEPS. When I say I’m a long time fan, I mean like life long. The photo to the left would be me, mid-70′s, with PEEPS. I would shave some years off my age and say that was the mid-80′s, but let’s be honest, that couch doesn’t lie. I have so much fun coming up with different ways to enjoy PEEPS {Read More}
