  • Nutty Pastry Cookies

    Nutty Pastry Cookies

    September 20th, 2014

    These cookies make me happy. Even though they score a 7 on the Effort It Takes To Make scale (you know, the scale I just made up right now, where 1 means So Easy You Can Have Your Three Year Old Make This Dessert, and 10 means This Dessert Will Be Annoying So Brace Yourself […]

  • Banana Chocolate CHip Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting

    Banana Chocolate Chip Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting

    September 17th, 2014

    This is a bar that really just wants to be a banana cake, because of its sort-of-cakey consistency and the fact that it has a thick layer of cream cheese frosting going on all over the top of it. I don’t care if we call it a bar or a cake or a bread or […]

  • Hazelnut Fudge Brownies

    Hazelnut Nocciolata Fudge Brownies

    September 13th, 2014

    Guys, I’ve gotta tell you- the World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie just keeps getting better. Have you heard of Nocciolata?  Me neither, until recently. Think of it as Nutella on organic crack.  (Really- it’s a hazelnut chocolate spread that’s made from totally organic ingredients, so I don’t need to feel bad swirling them into my all-organic brownie […]

  • Gooey Pecan Coconut Cheesecake

    Pecan Coconut Cheesecake with Chocolate Crust

    September 10th, 2014

    This dessert really is a culmination of All Things Amazing. I know I say that about almost all of the desserts I post, because I am pretty much smitten with All Things Desserts, but really.  In italics. Take a look at the picture above.  (Don’t pay attention to the sort of sub-standard photo quality, though- focus […]

  • Cinnamon Donut Muffins

    Cinnamon Donut Muffins

    September 3rd, 2014

    Who can’t make a recipe that they stumble across called “Dirt Bombs”? You know by now that I rip recipes out of magazines like there’s no tomorrow (until The Husband gently asks if I need to move any of the ragged pages from the kitchen counter over to my recipe binder, because they really do […]

  • The Pound Cake Pounding.

    The Pound Cake Pounding.

    September 1st, 2014

     If it’s okay with you, I don’t really want to talk about this one. (Because this disaster is all too similar to this one, and this one.  Oh, and this one, when I learned that silicone and I don’t get along.) I’m taking a break from these little baking pan things for a while.  Or […]

  • The Original Strawberry Cake

    The Original Strawberry Cake

    August 30th, 2014

    Wow, wow, wow. I made this cake (after being duly inspired by Martha Stewart’s version) years ago, and People Took Notice (yes, in caps). I shared the recipe with you a while back with raspberries making center stage (remember the Crazy-Good Raspberry Cake?), but knew that strawberries needed their day in the sun (ha!).  I […]

  • Blondie Bit Brownies

    Blondie Chunk Brownies

    August 27th, 2014

    Holy shizit. It happened. The dreams of many have come true (well, maybe it’s mostly my dream but I have to assume there are other sickos out there like me). Imagine a buttery blondie chopped up into chunks, and baked into the World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie.  Hello?  Are you okay?  I think you blacked out […]

  • Triple Lemon Pound Cake

    Triple Lemon Pound Cake

    August 20th, 2014

    As soon as I found lemon chips on a recent splurge at the Bulk Barn in Toronto I knew I was done for. Have you ever seen lemon chips?  Me neither.  (When I say lemon chips I mean like chocolate chips, not potato chips.  Lemony potato chips would be gross.  Come on.) So I realized […]

  • The Sour Disaster.

    The Sour Disaster.

    August 20th, 2014

    This is what happens when you bake an insanely yummy Triple Lemon Pound Cake in little teeny muffin cups and you don’t grease the cups well enough. The lemon chips like to linger on the pan.  And leave odd-looking holes in the bottoms of the mini-muffins themselves, where the chips were supposed to be securely baked. […]

  • Chocolate PB Caramel Brownie Pie

    Chocolate Peanut Butter Caramel Brownie Pie

    August 16th, 2014

    Oh. My. Dessert God. Thank you for this! I have made many a pie with peanut butter & chocolate in the last few years… there was the Honey Roasted Peanut Butter & Chocolate Tart, the Incredible Peanut Butter Chocolate Ganache Pie, the Chocolate Peanut Butter Tart with Oatmeal Crust, and a few others I’m just […]

  • Easy Baklava Bites

    Easy Baklava Bites

    August 13th, 2014

    Please tell me that you are aware of the exquisite pleasure known as baklava.  (I bestowed the gift of Classic Baklava on you back in September [the 18th, to be exact, of 2013, to be more exact], so shame on you if you didn’t go straight to the grocery store and stock up on honey and […]

  • Frozen Orange Yogurt Pie

    Frozen Orange Yogurt Pie

    August 6th, 2014

    I had no idea this dessert was going to taste this good. I wanted something summery, something cold, something light.  I liked the idea of orange and vanilla (flashback to Orange Julius at the mall as a kid), and thought it would be a perfectly above average dessert.  But no!  This is a perfectly excellent […]

  • Nutty Cream Cheese Spirals

    Nutty Cream Cheese Spirals

    August 2nd, 2014

    I have been making these for years and have been holding back on you. This post is my mea culpa.  I’ve been busy (with 345 recipes posted prior to this one) and really have no excuse as to why I’ve slacked off on the spiral-sharing.  (Maybe it’s the same reason I haven’t shared my peanut […]

  • Blueberry Crumble Muffins

    Blueberry Crumble Muffins

    July 30th, 2014

    I am so excited by these! Yeah, we’ve all had blueberry muffins, and I’ve posted more than my share of blueberry-filled recipes.  But these.  These muffins have a crumbly top, which takes them out of this realm and into another kind of buttery, sugary world.  (I think crumble tops make anything better.  Maybe I’ll start putting […]

  • Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Bars

    Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Brownie Bars

    July 23rd, 2014

    Imagine a brownie- a fudgy and chocolatey one- baked with a layer of cheesecake inside of it. Imagine not inhaling this dessert after it has cooled down just enough to not burn your tongue and mouth to smithereens. I know, it’s not possible.  You’ll either let it cool just barely enough and eat the whole […]

    White Chocolate & Pistachio Dipped Cookies

    July 19th, 2014

    I need more pistachios in my life.  (I also feel like I need more cilantro and cumin, and adventure, but I’ll stick to the sweet stuff since I know that’s what you came here for.) I’ve already bored you to tears with my soliloquies about shortbread cookies.  You know I love them, you know it’s […]

  • Creamy Berry Icebox Cake

    Creamy Berry Icebox Cookie Cake

    July 16th, 2014

    Sometimes us bakers just need to chill the freak out. Sometimes a “no bake” recipe just works.  Sometimes it’s just too hot to preheat the oven, let alone have it raging at 375º for several hours (because if you’re anything like me, you don’t just bake one dessert at a time… you bake like two […]
