For St. Patrick’s Day, I wanted to make cupcakes. I had picked up some fantastic shamrock sprinkles and some St. Patty’s Day cupcake cupcake cups and I was determined to use them. In the true spirit of the holiday, I decided to make Chocolate Guinness Cupcakes and had found this recipe by David Lieberman (because [...]

For dinner last night, I made chicken pot pie. Quite delicious. Not really sure how healthy it is given the pastry crust but definitely some good comfort food. For dessert we had No Pudge brownies. They are delicious. Super easy to make and much healthier (or at least lower in calories) than normal brownies. We [...]

I left my man all alone for the weekend so I made him some cinnamon buns to keep him company.

Sometimes they even put it in the food.

I’ve been wanting to make bolognese sauce ever since I saw it on notmartha. I found a recipe on Allrecipes. (Allrecipes rocks.) Specifically this recipe. I left out the whole bacon part but it was still quite good and I would make it again. I would leave out the carrots next time because they were [...]

The highlight of my baking were these s’mores cupcakes. I got the recipe from Sew Darn Cute. And they really are damn cute. I love them. Oh, and they tasted wonderful (of course, I love marshmallow cream, so that’s probably why). But seriously delicious. Those are graham cracker crumbs on the top. My frosting was [...]

Not sure whether these are cupcakes or muffins, but they are good. They have this cream cheese-y filling. These didn’t turn out quite as well as my test batch. All the cream cheese filling floated to the top. I think this is because the filling was much more watery than last time. Moral of the [...]

So, I went a little crazy making cupcakes for the bake sale as well. If this isn’t plainly obvious by the number of cupcakes I made: I decided to try the Billy’s Vanilla, Vanilla Cupcakes once again, this time with cake flour and a full recipe. I think they came out much better tasting. I [...]

Here’s the toffee I made. I divided it into little approximately 2 oz bags. This made 8 of them. Sad to say, I forgot to bring them to the bake sale But I tasted it later (since I forgot it for the bake sale) and it tasted quite good

In my craziness, I thought, “hey, I’ll make some chocolate chip cookies as well.” This was silly. Although they tasted good. I used this recipe from  Shelterrific which is supposed to be the best chocolate chip cookie recipe ever. In my opinion, it tasted very similar to Tollhouse. And my cookies came out super flat [...]
