If you like a dense, rich cupcake with a buttery coffee-flavored frosting, this recipe is for you! I started developing this cupcake recipe back when #Choctoberfest was going on, but got too busy to finish finessing it. My husband’s office really enjoys when I develop new recipes! These cupcakes have a strong chocolate flavor and […]
#Choctoberfest was an awesome event again. This year, we had over 70 bloggers take part, and collectively we posted over 300 chocolate recipes! My taste buds are happy (even though my waistline will suffer as I work through this list!) THANK YOU to our event sponsors this year, as well as to all the bloggers […]
I have to admit, that I’m usually not an overnight oats or oatmeal person. But if it’s chocolate-flavored, I’m on board! Plus, I love the combination of chocolate and orange, as is evident by all the other chocolate and orange flavored recipes on this blog, including Orange Chocolate Chip Bread, Chocolate Orange Cookies, and Mini […]
I love trying new variation on old favorites! Growing up, my mother use to make cookie cups with a peanut butter cookie dough and a miniature peanut butter cup. My sister and I always wanted to help our mom in the kitchen when she was baking cookies. I know I always enjoying getting to stick […]
If you love a rich, fudgy brownie recipe, this is one you should try out! I’m not a vegan by any stretch of the imagination, but I do love to experiment with vegan baking. It’s awesome to bring a delicious vegan treat to a gathering so everyone can enjoy it, even friends who don’t eat […]
I have been itching to use my ice cream maker more often. I have the KitchenAid attachment, but it is usually stored in my chest freezer, which is out in my storage shed. You know how it is: out of sight, out of mind. But the other day, we were driving home from running errands […]
Do not adjust your screen color… those Hershey kisses really are orange. They are the “caramel pretzel” variety. I just happened to find the caramel pretzel kisses at a local grocery store and thought they would be a wonderful addition to the chocolate cookie for this year’s #Choctoberfest! Because these kisses are caramel instead of […]
If you know us Boyer women, you know love our cookie recipes! Our Rolled Sugar Cookies is a recipe I grew up eagerly awaiting to help my mother make every year at Christmas time. While getting ready for #Choctoberfest this year, I knew I wanted to try turning that beloved recipe into a chocolate version! […]
Did you know that Cinnamon Toast Crunch comes in a chocolate variety? I didn’t until a few months ago. Man, is that stuff addicting! When I was brainstorming ideas for #Choctoberfest this year, I knew I wanted to make some kind of cheesecake bar. So I thought… how about using Chocolate Toast Crunch in place […]
Every October, I get to host my favorite event of the year: #Choctoberfest! This is now the 5th year! My sister, mom, and I have tried dozens of delicious recipes over the past five years, and we are excited to see what our bloggers have in store this year. #Choctoberfest is an annual recipe-sharing event. […]
Happy National Cheesecake Day! The Golden Girls definitely had the right idea. Every day can be made better with cheesecake! Yes, it is a little pricey and finicky to make. But when you get it right… YUM! And of course, cheesecake is like pizza: Even bad cheesecake is still cheesecake. Since this blog celebrates all […]
Today is #CupcakeLoversDay, so we’re joining some of our bloggy friends in a cupcake-filled celebration! (BIG Thank you to The Baking Fairy for organizing this recipe round-up!) A few days again, Jess and I made and posted a recipe for white chocolate wine truffles. As we were perfecting the recipe, we realized that we had […]
This past weekend, my sister Jess came to town, and we decided to go to a wine festival. She usually works at festivals, so it was nice that she was on the other side for once to actually get to taste some wine! One of the wineries there was Horton Vineyards, which makes a wine […]
Mother’s Day is just around the corner, so today I have a recipe and giveaway for you that is all about mom! My mom is the “cookie lady.” I used to say that she is known for her Christmas cookies, but that makes it sound like she only bakes cookies in December. Her freezer ALWAYS […]
Happy Earth Day, friends! I’m teaming up with some of my favorite food bloggers to bring you yummy recipes inspired by Earth Day. If you’re seeing this post later and it isn’t earth day anymore… don’t worry, you can eat environmentally-friendly recipes all year long (haha!). They aren’t just for one day per year! Thanks […]
Listen y’all… I have a confession to make. I’ve never made homemade granola before. I feel like that is a good blogger sin. I mean, granola is SO EASY to make at home. And I truly do love it as a quick snack or even breakfast cereal replacement. But I’ve always just picked up a […]
