Baked Goods
Apple & Cranberry Crisp
Welcome fall with this Apple Cranberry Crisp! Cinnamon baked apples, a sweet & tart layer of cranberry sauce topped with a candied, crumbly, buttery oat topping. This was originally posted September 13, 2015. I’ve updated a few of the photos during some fall baking. My love of fresh cranberry is no secret. The tart little berries…
Chocolate Hazelnut Bars
Chocolate Hazelnut Bars. Rich, chocolate topping – something in between a custard, a ganache and a fudge – over a buttery hazelnut crust. Not your average, everyday cookie bar or brownie. Let’s talk recipe inspiration… Most often mine will occur when I’m grocery shopping. I’ll find a great price on something or find some type…
Chocolate Banana Nut Bread
A delicious, moist, easy to make chocolate banana quick bread. Made with cocoa powder & applesauce – this decadent bread is almost guilt-free. This was originally posted on December 12, 2014. I’ve updated the photos during some rainy day baking 🙂 Chocolate Banana Bread, How I Crave Thee ♥ It’s a miracle, once again, that…

Frosted Root Beer Cookies
Fun, sweet & unique Frosted Root Beer Cookies. I woke up in the mood to bake. Actually, I’ve been wanting to bake for days but ongoing kitchen renovations have kept my kitchen playtime at a bare minimum. My kitchen is always a bit on the chaotic side – I work best that way – but…
Chewy Gooey Fudgy Jam Brownies
Rich, chewy, gooey, fudgy chocolate brownies swirled with your favorite berry jam. Decadent & delicious ♥ I need chocolate! I’m in the midst of dotting the i’s & crossing my t’s of my tax details, a kitchen renovation and a major snowstorm. It’s just all a bit much right now, and nothing fixes me up better than…
Rye Bread
A wonderful all-purpose, basic rye bread. Dense but soft and loaded with flavor. Makes great loaves or rolls. Simple & delicious ♥ It’s a New Year and there’s not a whole lot of new stuff going on around here. Each year I half heartily resolve to become more organized and each year I fail miserably….
