There is no such thing as too much chocolate in a dessert. These chocolate on chocolate cupcakes will prove that to be oh so true. Whenever I make chocolate cupcakes, I generally opt for a cream cheese frosting or some type of fruit buttercream. Strawberry buttercream, raspberry buttercream or even blueberry. I had a chocolate […]

Classic Coleslaw With Raisins
A seriously good homemade classic coleslaw with an added sweetness from raisins. Growing up, coleslaw was a simple mix of creamy dressing mixed into shredded cabbage and carrots. The first time I had coleslaw with raisins, I was not very open to the idea. It was one of those situations where you are a guest […]
Cauliflower Pea Salad
This simple salad is made with peas, eggs and cauliflower. It reminds me of potato salad, but fresh and elegant. My sister first told me about this recipe after she tried it and I didn’t think it would work. Peas AND cauliflower? But it does! Cauliflower Pea Salad has a nice crunch from the cauliflower […]

Easy and Moist Banana Muffins
A few months ago, I started letting the children help out a lot more with preparing breakfast. It started with setting the table and then into slicing bananas. That lead to washing and slicing strawberries and grabbing ingredients out of the fridge for ME to make breakfast muffins on the weekends. Now, they are pretty […]
Sour Cream Baked Donuts
Who doesn’t love a good donut? Is it doughnut or donut? Either way, I love them. Donuts bring back so many wonderful memories. There use to be this donut shop on the corner where the bus use to let us out for middle school. We would get off the bus, go straight into the donut […]

Butternut Squash Flan
I love flan. It’s different, but it’s delicious. It’s like a creamy custard pie whose crust has been replaced by a silky caramel-like sauce topping. Flan was actually one of the first desserts I ever made. It was a pumpkin flan and it was a little over 12 years ago and I have no idea where […]
