Soft & Chewy Cookies – Part 2
Cookies are something I always enjoy baking and sharing with others. They tend to make enough to bring to work, have throughout the week at home, or freeze for later (although I don’t know why you would have any to freeze and not eat them right away). And the recipes are often simple or less complicated that you can quickly whip up a batch. Today I have 4 different cookie varieties to share. All are incredibly soft and chewy (hence the blog name), large (like large enough to share), and contain great flavor combinations. Here’s what I have for you: Soft & Chewy Carrot Cake Cookies Soft & Chewy Dulce de Leche Cookies Soft & Chewy Cookies & Cream Cookies Soft & Chewy Peanut Butter Cup Cookies Now let’s walk through how to make them. Each recipe makes 7-8 cookies (one actually makes 12 but who’s counting), but they are decent sized cookies and can be shared … Continue reading

Tasty Tidings
It’s that time of year again where we bake way too many cookies, gorge on sweets, go cocktailing with friends, enjoy meals with family, and celebrate the holidays! This is my favorite time of year for baked goods and all things dessert. Anyone that knows me knows what a sweet tooth I have.

Individual Dessert Cup 2.0
I previously posted a blog called Individual Dessert Cups where I discuss easy, no bake desserts that are mini-sized and served in 2oz cups. They are perfect for a holiday gathering (especially with Christmas and NYE coming up) or would make great treats for a birthday party, picnic, or even a bake sale. I think they are JUST the right size to satisfy your sweet tooth yet are small enough that you can have more than one without feeling bad about overindulging. You can make them in a variety of flavors, complete with cookie base, creamy filling, and themed toppings. Here are the recipes I’ll be walking you through today: Individual Cookies & Cream Dessert Cups Individual Strawberry Cheesecake Dessert Cups Individual Pumpkin Spice Dessert Cups Let’s start with Individual Cookies & Cream Dessert Cups. These are easy to make, delicious, and perfect for any Oreo lover! There is an Oreo crust, creamy … Continue reading

Super Simple No Bake Pies
Any recipe that is “no bake” is pretty amazing. The recipes are typically simple to make and often don’t take a lot of time (just plan ahead so the pie has time to chill). My favorite “no bake” recipes are for dessert. You can make some delicious bars, pies, etc. without ever turning on your oven. So, if you aren’t a baker or don’t have a lot of experience baking, these pies are for you! The recipes I want to share with you today are for 4 different No Bake Pies. A little variety, something for everyone. I think these pies are rich in flavor and will be a crowd favorite so whip up one or two for your next gathering! Here are the recipes: No Bake Butterfinger Pie No Bake Heath Bar Pie No Bake Mint Pie No Bake Pistachio Pie First up is No Bake Butterfinger Pie. … Continue reading

Your Favorite MN State Fair Food…. At Home!
The MN State Fair is cancelled. Those are words I never thought would come out of my mouth, but it’s 2020, and anything is possible this year 🙂 And what a year it’s been! Luckily, some food trucks and vendors are still able to sell their highly demanded food at various locations around town. If you have ventured out and waited in line for any of your favorites – good for you! If you have not, there’s still time. OR…. drum roll, please…. you can enjoy fair food in the comfort of your own home. Just think….no crowds, no waiting in line, no overcrowded buildings, no “sold out” signs, etc. I love the MN State Fair so if I have to miss out on one of my favorite summer traditions, this is as good as it gets. The list of foods we “have to get” is quite long and the … Continue reading

Instant Pot Cheesecake Bites
Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts. I love the crumbly crush, the sweet and creamy filling, and the variety of toppings you can use. It’s such a customizable dessert! I recently tried my hand at cheesecake bites made in an Instant Pot and let me tell you, they did not disappoint. They had the perfect texture, were just the right size to satisfy a craving, and took very little time to make. Please note, you will need not only an Instant Pot but also an Instant Pot Silicone Egg Bites Mold to make either of these recipes. My first batch was Instant Pot Oreo Cheesecake Bites. This is the easiest cookies and cream dessert you will ever make. The “crust” is one Oreo and the filling has crushed Oreos mixed in. I could eat each and every cheesecake bite from this recipe in one sitting. Delicious! The recipe can … Continue reading
