Gluten Free Raspberry Brownies (DF, RSF, Low Fat)
Happy almost Valentines Day my blog readers! I am so excited to bring you this recipe. I know when you read gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free, and low fat, it does not make it sound too exciting. But after writing this recipe and testing it out, I was shocked at how good they tasted. The texture is the perfect balance between cakey and fudgey, not too moist but not too dry. This recipe has a great balance between the two. They are rich and decadent but not so much that it puts you into a sugar coma. My favorite addition, is the homemade raspberry jam. I was inspired…
Gluten Free Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies
Happy Super Bowl month! This year, we will be watching intently as the Chiefs and the Eagles face off, to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy and be crowned champs of the NFL Super Bowl 2023. I have become quite the football fan over the last couple years, and have been watching all season. It is finally that time of year when millions of Americans come together to watch, but let’s be real, people go to Super Bowl parties mostly for the food. Am I right? I’ll admit, food and drink are a huge draw for me. The community and just hanging out with your friends and family is the best.…
Chocolate Cake Pops with Vanilla Frosting (Gluten Free)
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! I don’t know about you, but I do not personally do a ton to celebrate this holiday. I will occasionally go out with friends to dinner or maybe have a small get together. Drinking is not something I regularly do, so going to the bar and grabbing a beer, isn’t my go-to activity. But the best and biggest way I know to celebrate any holiday, is with food! I like baking and cooking delicious things, and then sharing them with friends and family. These Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Pops are so fun, festive, and you can get really creative with the decoration and colors. Of course,…
Toffee Chocolate Macarons
Hello friends! It is almost March which means Spring is right around the corner (I hope). To jumpstart the season, I wanted to share a delicious Toffee Chocolate Macaron recipe. Now, macarons are not my favorite dessert to make, only because they are time consuming and laborious. You do have to have patience with these, and enjoy taking your time. Macarons are infamous for being finicky and more on the difficult side. I do not say this to deter you at all, just being real with ya’ll. One of the hardest parts of making macarons, is the meringue. Getting it to be the perfect consistency, is key. These elegant sandwhiches…
Marble Bundt Cake (Gluten Free)
We are almost in February guys, and you know what that means… Valentine’s Day! I rarely do anything for this holiday, as I am single and see it as just another day. However, I know there are millions of people that love celebrating it, and have someone special to spend it with. It is fun to see the bouquets of roses, balloons, teddy bears, and surprise trips that my friends and family receive. I love creating and writing recipes for desserts that others can use to make for February 14th. I haven’t made a bundt cake in years, and thought it would be something exciting and different. Bundt cake pans…
Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookie Recipe
(with White Chocolate)Merry Christmas friends! Christmas is officially 9 days away, and I have fully decorated my apartment with green and red. I have snowmen, Santa, a mini Christmas tree, stockings, trimmings, the whole shebang. Christmas is my favorite holiday by far, and always has been. I love baking and cooking during December because there are so many yummy and delicious options and you get to make it cutesy and cozy. I love making the classic sugar cookies cutouts with frosting and sprinkles, peppermint flavored pastries, hot chocolate from scratch, and last but not least, gingerbread cookies! Our family did not grow up making gingerbread cookies, but as an adult I started…
Quick and Easy Apple Crisp (Gluten Free)
Good afternoon my friends, family, supporters, and passerby strangers. Thanks for visiting my humble blog today! This apple crisp recipe may be one of the fastest and simplest desserts on my blog. It is 5 steps and very staple ingredients that most people have in their pantry. I like to describe apple crisp as a sort of upside pie. But it takes way less time to make a crisp than a pie. There is no crust, rather a granola type topping that gives the perfect crunch to a sweet and tangy recipe. I am not going to lie, I am not a huge pie person, and I don’t love hot…
Gluten Free Brownie Cookies w/ Ganache Center
It is October 1st and I can hardly believe it. Like where did September go?! Does anyone else feel like 2021 is going by at lightning speed? This week I bring to you, a new favorite dessert. It is not apple or pumpkin, but it is CHOCOLATE, and who doesn’t love chocolate? I am not going sugar coat it (pun intended), this recipe does take longer than your average cookie, but it is 1000% worth it. These delicious brownies cookies are more laborious because you have to make the chocolate ganache for the center, and refrigerating the dough takes some time as well. But the reason that I love this…
The Best Pumpkin Loaf with Streusel (Gluten-Free)
It is OFFICIALLY Fall people! We are two weeks into September and I have literally already seen dozens of pumpkin recipes flood my Instagram and Pinterest feeds. I get it, it’s super basic and super cliche, but everyone loves pumpkin recipes, and they make you feel happy, cozy, and warm. I love coming up with new, exciting, and different recipes. But sometimes ya gotta stick to the classics, because they just work and they are consistently great and tasty. I am going to be honest with you, I tinkered with this recipe couple times. I even went through all the effort of making the video and shooting the photos for…
Chocolate Chip Strawberry Thumbprint Cookies
Consider this your weekly reminder, that traditional and basic (but also perfect) recipes like chocolate chip cookies, can always be reinvented, modified, or added to to make it exciting, new, and different. That is what I did with this recipe! My roommate and I were trying to think of a dessert that I could incorporate raspberry jam into, because I had just bought a delicious jar of it, and I wanted to have a dessert with raspberry in it without actual raspberries, because lets face it, it is summer and they are a little bit spendy. That is when my roommate (gotta give credit where credit’s due), thought of the…
