Biscoff Rice Crispy Treats

I’m sneaking this in at the very end of 2021… what a year. Personally, the first half of the year was extraordinarily good to me– lots of stars aligned for […]

Breakfast Treats

Butternut, Olive Oil, & Bittersweet Chocolate Cake

Cakes

Spiced Persimmon Ginger Cake

Apparently I have suddenly become a persimmon person. This was not a thing that I expected, now or frankly ever. I had precisely zero encounters with persimmons until about a […]

Baked Sunday Mornings: Flourless Chocolate Cake

Normally I would advocate for throwing flour into my cake batter (kind of a no-brainer, right?), but in the right ratios, the magical combination of chocolate, eggs, sugar, and butter […]

Cakes

Guinness Stout Cake

I’m not generally one to drink by myself at home. I’d rather eat my calories any day of the week, especially dessert. But right now in Coronaland, days and calories […]

Cakes

Green Tea Rhubarb Pudding Cake

I think it’s safe to say that St. Patrick’s Day 2020 will go down in history as the saddest/strangest/quietest St. Patrick’s Day in modern times. No parades, no drunken bar […]
