Cannoli Sandwich Cookies
Happy 2023, friends! Do you have bright, colorful, nutrient-rich salads and soups on deck for January? ME TOO, and I am so excited about them. And alsoooo… I’m still baking. A lot.

So this is it– the culmination of 10 days and LOTS and LOTS of hamantashen. I didn’t think I’d get to this point, but… (spoken in a hushed tone) I might actually be hamantashen-ed out! I’m so glad I saved these Pistachio Nutella Halva Hamantashen for last– I’m kind of in love with them. They […]

Puff Pastry Pillows: Spicy Shakshuka Tarts
I love shakshuka and I love puff pastry… so I guess this was bound to happen eventually. I don’t usually cook on this blog, but sometimes we have to rethink things when inspiration takes hold, and this was a recipe that I really wanted to share. I absolutely *adore* savory pastry; in fact, contrary to popular […]
One Dough to Rule Them All: Chocolate Chip & Vanilla Cream Hamantashen
