So funny story. I had planned to make these back in mid-August, just in time for back-to-school. I did my weekly grocery run at the beginning of the week and purchased all of the supplies and ingredients I would need for these tasty little treats, one of which was Nutter Butter Cookies. It’d been a…

Orange Dreamin’
Yes, I know it’s been weeks since I last posted. School started back up for me this week, and there has been so much to prepare for for teaching this year! I’ve been running around like crazy for the past few weeks, but I hope that things will settle down a bit as the new…
Monster Cookie Cupcakes
This week’s baking adventure was quite an exciting one! I dreamt up the idea a few weeks ago and was able to construct a yummy and unique cupcake, inspired by chewy, hearty, chocolatey, crunchy, oatmeal peanut-buttery monster cookies! I must warn you that this is not your typical cupcake. The flavors are all very distinct,…

Happy Father’s Day to all of the great fathers out there! And an especially happy day to my own Dad-Dad-Daddio (my Back to the Future nickname for him). My Dad is a super fun guy who, when he gets an idea, will do whatever it takes to make that happen. Pretty sure I get a…

It has been quite a while since I’ve had some time to sit down and post what with all of the holiday business! I had big dreams for all of the beautiful and delicious things I would make around Christmas time. As it is, I’ve only had time to whip up a couple kinds of…
Cocoa Coffee Cupcakes
It’s getting to be that time of the year where it’s consistently colder each day, especially in the mornings and at night. As a result, I will sometimes enjoy a toasty cup of hot cocoa or coffee while starting work in the morning, or in the evenings a few hours before bed. Both of these…
