“I hate carrot cake” is often what I’m told by people who have no idea what good life is all about. A bunch of weirdos, honestly. People you just cannot trust. I mean, who in their right mind hates carrot cake? What has carrot cake ever done to you? It’s sweet, flavorful, moist, delicious, and…

Red Velvet Cheesecake Cupcakes
You could argue that “red velvet” is overrated, and honestly, in many ways I’d probably agree with you. However, when it comes to the classics, red velvet cake and cupcakes are here to stay. I’ve seen some strange things become unnecessary red velvet versions of themselves, and I mean hey, it’s the food world —…
Latte Glazed Mocha-Almond Cinnamon Rolls
Good morning. If you’ve tried ANY of the cinnamon roll recipes posted here, then you already know these are about to be insane as well. These satisfy all of my cravings — buttery, doughy, cinnamon’y, chocolatey, nutty, espresso’y, glaze’y…mmmmm. The one thing you should know about these in particular is that conceptually, they may sound a little…
Handheld Apple-Cranberry Pies
You ever eat something so good that you start cussing? Because that’s exactly what happened after my sweety and I savored every buttery, flaky bite of these delicious and adorable little pies. We stared each other down and shook our heads in decadent disgust as we devoured every bite — cussing each other out in the most romantic way possible. The sheer frustration that possessed us both let me know that this is one of those treats I’d have to make quite often, just to keep balance in our home.
Tequila & Lime Cupcakes
ERMAHGERD! We’re only a few days into Summer, officially…and I already hate it. Y’all, it’s unbearably hot outside. As soon as I open my front door, I am attacked by the hot sweaty steam of Satan’s scrotes. It aint fun! This heat makes my soul so weary. I can’t even enjoy normal activities because it’s just so damn hot outside. My car read 109 degrees yesterday and I basically cried — are we being punished?? Anyway, as long as I have these delicious lil boozed up cupcakes to cool me off, I won’t complain too much…for now lol.
Bacon, Gruyere, and Shallot Quiche
Recently, I whipped up a delicious brunch that included this uh-may-zing quiche filled with smokey bacon, delicious gruyere cheese and a hint of sweetness from the shallots. Served it alongside a fresh green salad and lots of fruit — it was a pretty epic meal. If you’re a lover of quiche, you gotta give this recipe a try.
Super Creamy Vanilla Ice Cream
Heavenly Father…
Deep Dish Apple Pie
Before you freak out and automatically assume you cannot possibly make this delicious bounty of all-American greatness, just hear me out. I am not an awesome pie-maker. It’s one of the things I kinda steer clear from because I know how much “technique” is involved, and its so easy to screw up despite how seemingly simple it is…right?
New York Vanilla Bean Cheesecake with Fresh Strawberries
Another cheesecake recipe 😀 Back to back to baaack. This one is also equally incredible. Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a huge fan of anything vanilla based. It’s such a powerful, potent, yet delicate flavor that I simply cannot get enough of. This cheesecake embodies everything that is right within the world. It’s tall, it’s thick, it’s rich, it’s creamy, and it’s easy to do. I sound like I’m describing a Hollywood housewife…
Meyer Lemon Cheesecake
Hello, Spring! What better way to ring in the warm breezy weather than with a super luscious bite of creamy meyer lemon cheesecake topped with deliciously sweet and perfectly tart meyer lemon curd?? I bet you can’t think of another way…I’ll wait.
