Golf Themed Vanilla Cupcakes with
Buttercream FrostingIt’s Springtime! This week we have Easter coming up, and I bet you thought I was going to do a post for Easter didn’t you? You think you know me soo well. I like to keep you on your toes, because this week, the recipe is inspired by the Masters! The Masters is like the Super Bowl of golf. It occurs annually in the beautiful city of Augusta in Georgia, and it lasts 4 full days (Thursday-Sunday). Around 40,000 people attend it every year! The best of the best come out to compete for the Masters Trophy, a good sum of money, and the coveted Green Jacket (they get to…
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…

I have been watching the Super Bowl for many years now, and let me tell you, my favorite part of this lovely day is not the game, but the friends and the food. Everyone loves going to a great super bowl party where there is tons of appetizers, drinks, desserts, and usually nachos. Bringing appetizers to a party is a wonderful idea, because they are scrumptious finger food that a person can easily grab and walk around while talking to people. This particular appetizer should be…
