For most of us, when we hear the term ‘crock-pot,’ our minds arguably tend to visualize some sort of roast or stew, seeing as these sorts of dishes are what crock-pots are most often used to create. Crock-pots are fantastic options for individuals who yearn to cook a hearty, homemade meal but don’t necessarily have … More Hot chocolate … in a crock-pot?
While the concept of me sharing recipes with all of you here on my blog is certainly not new, I did recently realize that the majority of the recipes I have been sharing have mainly been entrees and appetizers. My sweet tooth could rival Willy Wonka’s, so you can arguably imagine my dismay when I … More How about some Toasted Marshmallow Caramel Rice Krispie Treats for dessert tonight?
When I think of summer desserts, one of the first things that comes to mind is peach cobbler, and I couldn’t tell you why. Peach cobbler is delicious, yes, but oddly, I’ve only had it a handful of times throughout my life, so I’m not entirely sure why it presents itself so prominently in my … More Let’s make some peach cobbler
It seems as though just about each and every time I open up Instagram on my phone, I find myself watching a Reel explaining how to make a relatively common food from very uncommon ingredients. Sometimes I can’t help but wonder if some foods should simply be left alone in their harmless existence, and how … More Cottage cheese … ice cream?!
I haven’t been to Costco in a hot minute, and as much as I could benefit from going, it’s arguably best I don’t to abstain from spending money on items I don’t necessarily need. It doesn’t matter how prepared you are prior to going to a Costco – you’re always going to buy things you … More If you love birthday cake, you need to visit your closest Costco
For some bizarre reason, I have always been drawn toward bread pudding. The reason I say it’s bizarre is that I’ve never even had it before; I have no idea what it tastes like, but I am convinced I would love it, and when an opportunity presents itself, you can bet that I will take … More Let’s make bread pudding
Suppose I were to sample a group of random people and inquire as to whether or not their favourite component of making cookies when they were children was sneaking chunks of raw cookie dough behind their mother’s back. In that case, I suspect the overwhelming majority would agree. Most folks I know love cookie dough, … More As it turns out you, can enjoy raw cookie dough with this product
I wager if I were to ask people if they prefer brownies or blondies they would more than likely answer brownies, and rightly so; brownies are positively scrumptious, when prepared correctly, and there really is nothing like biting into a chewy yet soft chocolatey delight. On the other hand, however, blondies are also excellent. Quite … More Move over, brownies; it’s a blondie summer
I don’t mind donuts, but they’ve never been a personal favourite. I much prefer other sorts of pastries to donuts, for example, cookies or cupcakes, to name a couple, and while I have sampled some over the years that were decent, I’m just not a huge donut gal. My sister would throat-punch me if she … More President’s Choice Flake Outs croissant donuts: are they worth buying?
When it comes to dessert, chocolate is just about always my preference. I’ve loved chocolate my entire life, and I doubt that my fixation will alter anytime soon; I’m rather rigid in my love and dedication for chocolate, and nothing can take the special place it holds in my heart. I was raised on authentic … More Let’s make Skillet Apple Cake
I recently came to the troubling realization that the majority of recipes I share here on my blog are food dishes as opposed to dessert recipes. Is this acknowledgement a riveting one in its nature? Absolutely not. But, I certainly don’t want to give anyone the impression that I’m not a fan of dessert, because … More Read this for some Easter dessert inspiration
For our Christmas gathering this year with my husband’s family, I have been asked to bring two things. The first is a cheese platter, which is easy enough, and the second is some sort of dessert. The criteria pertaining to what sort of dessert I will be bringing specifically remains undisclosed, and I’ve been trying … More Let’s make Christmas sugar cookies
A few days ago, my dad’s side of the family got together for a lovely dinner to celebrate my Nagymama’s (grandmother, in Hungarian) birthday. We tend to celebrate her birthday with the entire family every year, and this year was no exception. We went to Devlin’s Country Bistro in Mount Pleasant and enjoyed a tremendous … More Let’s make pecan pie
This past weekend I attended a function involving my dad’s family. It was nice to see my cousins again; now that we’re older and growing up and whatnot, we don’t see each other as often as we once did. We all enjoyed a barbecue and some dessert, and one dessert option was a lovely blueberry … More Here is how to make some scrumptious blueberry cake
If you happened to read the title of today’s post aloud, in the presence of others, and someone countered your exclamation with bless you, I would not be surprised. KürtÅ‘skalács isn’t exactly the most common word, and furthermore, I imagine it is one most folks aren’t entirely familiar with. Referencing onesweetharmony.com, KürtÅ‘skalács is the Hungarian … More Here is how to make KürtÅ‘skalács
I like Oreos, but I wouldn’t say I love them. They’re tasty, don’t get me wrong, but when it comes to original Oreo cookies, personally, I’d rather nibble on a homemade chocolate chip cookie. Blaine likes Oreos, so I purchase mini snack-sized ones for him to take in his lunch when he is at work. … More Oreo showdown: which flavour is best?
The month of May is a busy one for me and my family. Not only do we start planting some of our crops on our farm in May (some are planted earlier), but we also celebrate Mother’s Day, Blaine’s birthday, my birthday, our nephew’s birthday, and Blaine’s Dad’s birthday. My birthday and Blaine’s are four … More Read this to learn how to make homemade Dairy Queen ice cream cake
This past Thursday, Blaine and I celebrated his 29th birthday. He isn’t exactly the type to willingly engage in celebratory birthday activities, so our festivities were pretty low-key, just as he prefers. Blaine has a sweet tooth but can be picky with his desserts. He is an avid fan of his grandmother’s chocolate pie, and … More Read this to learn how to make homemade chocolate pie
When I sat down to write today’s post, I hit the wall hard when it came time to come up with a topic to discuss. I eventually decided on a recipe of some sort, but because I couldn’t think of one in particular to share, I thought I would ask Blaine to see if he … More Here’s how to make the absolute best peanut butter cookies
I try my best to limit myself and my tastebuds when I go grocery shopping. I really do. I make a list beforehand, try my best to avoid going on an empty stomach, and try to find the best deals and prices possible to save some coin. I still, however, buy myself some treats from … More Here’s how to make some cinnamon coffee muffins
Please don’t kill me, but I have to be honest and admit that I am not in any way, shape or form a big fan of pumpkin. You can prepare it however you would like, but I’m probably not going to enjoy it, regardless of the version of pumpkin you serve me. I love pumpkins … More Here’s how to make the perfect pumpkin pie
As mentioned in yesterday’s post, my mom and I recently made a trip to Costco. I picked up some new goodies as well as some I’ve been getting from Costco for a while, one such item being the cookies that they bake in-store. Costco actually has a rather impressive selection of baked goods. If I’m … More Costco cookies: yes or no?
Blaine has a profound love for chocolate pie. He always has, and arguably always will, although I should make mention of the fact that the version of chocolate pie Blaine would arguably kill for is his late grandmother’s recipe. Blaine’s mom hasn’t yet given me the recipe, but one day, I would like to take … More Here’s how to make chocolate pie
For Christmas last year, my mom generously gifted me and Blaine an executive Costco membership to use once we are living in our home. Considering I eat as much as a rhinoceros, buying in bulk makes sense, so I was very happy to be gifted this. Blaine and I are (hopefully) going to be moving … More Run, don’t walk to get this dessert from Costco
I firmly believe that brownies are just one of those things that provide an instant mood boost. Brownies are the shit; they’re slightly crunchy on the outside and on the edges, yet soft and gooey on the inside, enveloping your mouth in a chocolatey euphoria. At least, that’s how I enjoy my brownies. In case … More Read this to learn how to make the best homemade brownies
Tiramisu, if you have not yet had the privilege of tasting it, is life-changing. That may sound dramatic, but I assure you it isn’t. Naturally an Italian dessert (hence why it’s so damn tasty), it consists of delectable layers of ladyfinger cookies which are soaked in coffee, along with a divine mixture of mascarpone cheese, … More Here’s how to make the best homemade tiramisu
Brownies are one of those things that appeal to just about everyone. I have yet to meet someone who dislikes brownies, and, honestly, I think if I ever do, I’ll be a little concerned for their sanity. You simply cannot go wrong with brownies. They’re lightly crunchy and toasted on the exterior, yet warm and … More Here’s how to make some of the best brownies you’ve ever tasted
I love dessert. Arguably more than I should, but I have a massive sweet tooth, and one must simply fulfill the demand of what the palate wants. That’s a little dramatic, I’ll admit, but you get my point. I’m not fussy when it comes to dessert, and, really, I think the only dessert I’m not … More Here’s how to make the best fruit crisp this summer
When it comes to waffles, I am inclined to say the Belgians do it best. You simply cannot compare a frozen Eggo waffle to a rich, fluffy, decadent Belgian one, and I believe the hype pertaining to Belgian waffles is, without a doubt, warranted. I also conveniently happen to have Belgian ancestry, so I can … More Here’s how to make homemade Belgian waffles
Mug cakes, for anyone unfamiliar with them, are essentially exactly what the name suggests; a cake in a mug. They’re delicious, simple to make, and often require ingredients you likely already have in your cupboards. I first heard about these divine little creations a few years ago. It took me a while to get around … More Here’s how to make a mug cake
