Salted Brown Butter S’more Tart

I think we can all agree that s'mores are one of the best parts of summer? Sweet, chocolatey and toasty, it taps into the highlight reel of summer, from cottage trips to roasting marshmallows on the stove. Just me? Ok. I thought up this tart yesterday morning, wanting to put all the things I love … Continue reading Salted Brown Butter S’more Tart

The ~Baked~ Brownie

I like my brownies fudgy. I like them dark, chewy and gooey, I don't think I'm the only one either. If you agree - this recipe is for you.  The Baked Bakery really got it down pat here, because this brownie is everything I listed above and more.  The fact that it's super simple to … Continue reading The ~Baked~ Brownie

Champagne Vanilla Donuts

I've been thinking about baking with champagne for awhile, something about the fizz and the association with celebrations and glamour make me want to put all those feelings in a baked good. Then today when I started thinking about how National Donut Day is tomorrow, it hit me.  Kind of how champagne does;)  Champagne donuts … Continue reading Champagne Vanilla Donuts

Strawberry Ginger Hand Pies

The next few weeks will consist of me buying strawberries at the market and proceeding to make any and every kind of strawberry based pie/hand pie/galette possible.  These strawberries are far too delicious and the season too short to pass that up.

While I've enjoyed many a macaroon, I had never made them or honestly even known what really went into them.  I've gotta say, … Continue reading Coconut Macaroons with Chocolate Glaze

Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart

Do you have a go-to dessert for potlucks?  One that is quick/easy/delicious/impressive all at once? This is mine. I've been making it for years and keep coming back to it.  It's obviously delicious, y'all know I'm a sucker for sea salt - but it doesn't even require an oven and comes together in under an … Continue reading Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart

Texas Sized Chocolate Chunk Cookies

For a long time, I was adamant that there was only one recipe for chocolate chip cookies that mattered (see Chocolate Chip Cookies).  I was under the impression that they should be relatively flat and chewy with a crisp exterior. But when you have a baking blog, sometimes you need to try new things.  I tried … Continue reading Texas Sized Chocolate Chunk Cookies
