So, for this week’s Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share the game day appropriate recipes that caught my eye this week……

Whether you love it or hate it, entertaining is a big part of the holidays. I happen to be one of those people who really enjoys entertaining friends and family. If I had the time (and energy), I’d prepare a 4 course dinner for friends and family every night of the week. I am also…

I cannot keep track of how many different brownie recipes I have tried… Some have worked, some haven’t. Some have turned out cakey (not my thing), and some are chewy and fudgy (my preference). And, of course, there were the ones that had a giant crater in the middle and turned to rock on the…

It’s time for this week’s Friday Favorites again! Even though I’ve been feeling a little bit better each day, I’m afraid I still have a while until I’m back to 100% again. I’ve been able to get back into the kitchen a little bit, but not nearly as much as I like. Instead, I’ve been doing…

This week has been a crazy one! I’m writing this post early (on Wednesday) since I’m headed to New York City on Thursday and Friday. I’ve been getting ready for my trip, trying to get some work done, and also doggy sitting for my parents this week. Needless to say, my house has been a bit…

I don’t really have a long elaborate story to tell this week… It’s been a fairly ordinary week. I’ve been cooking, baking, writing, and taking photos. It’s been nice, but also uneventful. So, instead of dragging things out any further, I’ll just tell you about my favorite blog posts from the past week! I love doughnuts, but…

The hardest part about this recipe was coming up with a name. What do you call fudgy Nutella brownies topped with peanut butter cookies and chocolate chips?
This recipe has been a long time in the making. I have been seeing the brownie/chocolate chip cookie combinations for a little while. Then, a few weeks ago, I saw these Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies from Evil Shenanigans. They have been haunting me ever since.
