Failure Rebound {Recipe: Peanut Butter Bundt Cake with Jelly Glaze}
Food blogging isn’t always pretty…not everything I make comes out in the nice little package I envision when starting a new recipe. Take this Peanut Butter Bundt Cake with Jelly Glaze. I make bundt cakes all the time and think they are one of the most beautiful cakes around. I don’t always blog the cakes…
Recipe: Soft & Chewy Vanilla Butter Cookies
When simple is what you want, these soft and chewy vanilla butter cookies do the trick! If you haven’t noticed by browsing Pinterest or your favorite food blogs lately, Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. It seems the entire internet has erupted in a fit of red and pink!
Now I Get It! {Recipe: Biscoff Biscotti & “Keep Warm” with Frigidaire}
I finally get the love people have for Biscotti. I honestly didn’t understand it before. Why was there such adoration for a crunchy type treat that seemed to be having an identity crisis? Is it a cookie or is it a biscuit? Besides that, all the Biscotti I had in the past seemed dry and…
Oh, Bananas {Recipe: Banana Gelato}
Three ripe bananas were sitting in our fruit basket, taunting me with options. Should I make banana muffins? How about sour cream banana pancakes? Banana Crumble was a huge hit around here… maybe I should use these ripe bananas to make that recipe. Undecided, I went about my business for the day, still stewing about…
The Best Brownie Recipe & Using the Frigidaire Symmetry Oven Convection Feature
I will admit, I am a bit of a brownie snob. I like milk chocolatey brownies with no add-ins. I don’t want nuts, chocolate chips or candy messing up my brownies. Plain and simple is the best. My brownies must be soft and chewy and have that perfect, soft, top crust. I like gooey, but…
Frigidaire Double Oven Workout {Recipe: Grandma’s Chocolate Cream Pie}

This past week, things changed and we made up for lost time! Over the last seven days, we have used our Frigidaire Symmetry Double Oven to…
Our Favorite Cutout Sugar Cookie Recipe
It just dawned on me that of all the years I’ve been blogging, I have never shared our absolute favorite recipe for cutout sugar cookies. I think the reason is, I never have an end picture. Either it’s dark by the time we are totally done decorating or we’ve eaten them all already, but for…

Breakstone’s Holiday Showdown {Dessert Recipe: Baked Apple Brulee}
Part three of the Breakstone’s Holiday Showdown had us creating a delicious holiday dessert recipe featuring Breakstone’s sour cream. I love dessert and I especially love over indulging during the holidays, but sometimes it just feels like there is too much food all the time. I kept this in mind when I created my holiday…
