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 […]

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 […]
Over the past few weeks (okay, let’s be honest… months) you may have noticed that our blog was quieter than normal. Behind the scenes, we were getting ready for our big change! Back when we started our blog back in 2012, our goal was to test recipes that got popular on Pinterest to see if […]

We love #FoodBloggerLove, because it is a day to show appreciation to other food bloggers that we really enjoy. We are so lucky to have these lovely ladies in our lives! In some industries, bloggers are really […]
I have a problem… I live alone, but LOVE to bake and do so often. I’m always looking to share treats with friends and family so I don’t eat them all myself. My coworkers love when I feel like baking because I usually end up bringing in treats for them to enjoy! Many of them […]
Country superstar Martina McBride has brand new cookbook called Martina’s Kitchen Mix: My Recipe Playlist for Real Life. Usually I don’t do cookbook reviews here on the blog, but this one is a bit nostalgic for me! I was born in 1985, which means that I really grew up in the 90s. We listened to […]

Whoopie pies always make me think of home and family. We’ve been making them for years, but whoopie pies seemed to have really grow in popularity over the last few years. They were a special treat growing up, mostly because they require a few more steps than a normal cake or cookie dessert. But also […]
