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 […]
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 […]
I think this recipe is the most chocolatey recipe of all time! It has chocolate pudding mix, hot cocoa mix, cocoa powder, white chocolate chips, and milk chocolate chips. Chocolate to the max!!! So, I knew I had to try it for #Choctoberfest this year. To make this cookie even better, it uses brown sugar […]

Yes, you read that right… this lemon pepper chicken recipe contains an ingredient from one of our lovely #Choctoberfest sponsors: Forte chocolate! You’re going […]
I love the flavors of chocolate and orange together, especially around the holidays. It always makes me think of Terry’s chocolate oranges (YUM). I always thought chocolate and orange was a weird combination, but my dad liked the chocolate oranges. One time, I tried a slice and OH MAMA I was hooked ever since! I […]
We just love quick and easy semi-homemade recipes that look like they’ve taken you a long time but are really very easy. This recipe only has four ingredients, and you probably have three of them in your pantry already. All you need is some fresh raspberries. I made these brownie cups for Allison’s bachelorette party […]
I absolutely love this time of year… the music, the friends and family, the decorations, the presents, and the food, including the cookies!!! During the holiday season, we all do a ton of baking. I love making plates of holiday cookies to share with friends and family. Participating in the Food Blogger Love Cookie Exchange makes this […]
You guys… this is pretty much the easiest, cutest idea in the world for any patriotic holiday, like Memorial Day, the 4th of July, Veteran’s Day, etc. I saw this idea from several different sources on Pinterest, so I just had to give it a go. They were a huge hit at a Memorial Day […]
My sister Jess is a HUGE fan of white chocolate. She must take after our dad, who also loves it. So, I decided to do a recipe round-up that would make her drool and post as many white chocolate cookie recipes as I could find! These white chocolate cookies would ALL be great for your […]

Everybody who bakes has a basic peanut butter cookie recipe that you put the Hershey Kiss on top. I also take the same recipe and put it in the mini muffin pans with a peanut butter cup in it. So for #Chocotberfest, I wanted to share a version of this recipe. They’re always crowd-pleasers. This […]
When I was younger, I always cheated and used store bought frosting on my cakes and cupcakes… or convinced my mom to make frosting for me. I just never had a good recipe! Since testing so many recipes for The PinterTest Kitchen over the last few years, I’ve now got a few good ones added […]
When Allison and I started planning #Choctoberfest with Imperial Sugar, I automatically was put in charge of coming up with some white chocolate recipes since I LOVE it and my sister is not a fan. Loving white chocolate is something I share with our dad. Growing up, my mom would have to search for white chocolate […]
Once again it is strawberry season in Pennsylvania. I was looking for a cookie recipe using fresh strawberries from my garden, and I came across this recipe from OMG Chocolate Desserts. I like soft and chewy cookies, and when I read the recipe, I saw it had cream cheese, fresh strawberries, and white chocolate. Those […]
Christmas is always bittersweet. I love being able spend time with our families in Pennsylvania and Alabama, as well as our adoptive family of friends in Virginia. But it feels like we just get to town when we have to leave again. I hate leaving my family. But I can’t complain too much. Even though […]
