Sometime last week, as I opened up my Google reader, I was greeted by this. Is that not the most wonderful and genius muffin ever? It made me mad with muffin envy. Those bad boys just looked so damn good I set myself a goal to make muffins ASAP. I wanted to de-glutenize Mihl’s version, [...]

Over the weekend, the family and I stocked up on plenty-o-cherries. While I was excited about eating them as is- savoring each sweet and juicy bite- my son had another plan for them: cherry pie. He must have asked me to make cherry pie at least ten times this past weekend. Truthfully, the thought of [...]

This is a simple and delicious recipe I created the other day with what I had on hand (hence the array of flours used). They don’t rise as much as typical scones I have baked in the past, but they are very moist and have a terrific flavor. Bookmark Digg Facebook Reddit Stumble Twitter Subscribe [...]

The name says it all. Okay, maybe not. But they are chocolatey, and twirly… and “doodle” just sounded nice with the rest. And, seriously, what kind of cookie with a “doodle” at the end doesn’t taste good? These cookies are my first experiment using sorghum flour, and I must say, I am pretty impressed. It [...]

This is a fun twist on an old favorite. I have been making this recipe for years and it always turns out perfectly. In fact, I’m pretty sure this was the first recipe I came up with “all by myself”. :) To make it gluten-free, I just subbed out a few different flours where I [...]

Okay, when I say this cake is super sticky… I mean it is super friggin’ sticky. See how the cake kinda dips in the center? I’m not exactly certain why this happened. :| My guess is: incredibly moist (and heavy) cake with crispier ( therefore lighter) edges = cake that sinks in the middle. But [...]

A little unconventional maybe– but pretty delicious for a last minute pantry raid. What I like best about these cookies is their texture– they are thin and chewy and crispy all at once. The flavor is, well, flavorful! Since Garam Masala varies— I cannot guarantee that your cookies will taste just like my photo. :) [...]

When I woke up this morning, it was beautiful and sunny and the birds were singing. Yay! There was still two feet of snow on the ground… but the sun gave me a much needed burst of energy. So, rather than the usual bowl of cereal my son is honored with in the morning, I [...]

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’ve got love on my mind. Puppy love. As much as I bake, I often neglect to bake treats especially for my furry friend (even though he always gets some of my human treats). But our dog friends deserve their very own batch of cookies just as much [...]

While not super fancy, these cupcakes are sure to please the kids and adults in your life. The recipe provides an excellent, almost “no fail” type of cake, while the frosting is over-the-top chocolatey. I think it’s the best chocolate frosting I have made so far, and it goes really well with this simple white [...]
