Friday Favorites – Episode 91

This week I’ve been making the mistake of blog reading in the evenings.  Let me tell you… Repeatedly looking at gorgeous food at 10:00pm is not smart!  I’ve been craving a midnight snack every night. It’s also made it difficult to pick just a few favorites for this blog post. There were lots of amazing recipes and…

Friday Favorites – Episode 90

It’s Friday, Friday… Am I the only one who feels the need to walk around the house singing that horrid song every week when Friday rolls around? I’m really trying to stop, but that’s easier said than done. Fun, fun, fun, fun… I have to admit that I’ve gotten pretty far behind with my RSS…

It’s time for my Friday Favorites, again… I’m not feeling so chatty this week, so we’ll just get right to it! Easter is right around the corner… And, when I think Easter, I think of peanut butter eggs! I can’t wait to try these Homemade Peanut Butter Easter Eggs from Confessions of a Cookbook Queen!…

I’ve been in a bit of a funk lately… That’s the best way I can think to describe it. We’ve just had a lot going on for the past few weeks, and it’s drained me of all energy and inspiration… I just haven’t been myself. I know I will be fine… Things are gradually getting…

Friday Favorites – Episode 86

Another week has come and gone!  It’s hard to believe it. After enjoying the gorgeous weather last weekend while I was in New York City for a few days, it has gotten cold and rainy again… In fact, we are supposed to have lows in the 20s overnight and I’ve seen some flurries. That’s not really my…

Friday has rolled around yet again! So, naturally, it’s time for me to share my Friday Favorites… Before we jump right into the blog posts, though, I want to introduce a few new features that I’ll be including in each week’s favorites post.  Instead of just my favorite blog posts, I thought I’d start talking…

Yeasted Whole Wheat Doughnuts

There’s no need to check your calendar… Fasnacht Day isn’t here quite yet. I had planned to post these doughnuts on Tuesday for Fasnacht Day, but then I realized that you might actually want to make them for Fasnacht Day, so I decided to post them a bit early to give you the chance. Growing…

Friday Favorites – Episode 83

I try to mix it up and feature different blogs each week, but sometimes I find myself going back to the same ones. Do you ever find that you go through phases where you will love every single thing on a particular blog for a while, and then you move on to a new favorite…

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Topped Brownies

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.

Peanut Butter Caramel Corn with Cashews

You really can’t go wrong when you combine sweet caramel with salty cashews. The caramel corn with cashews would have been perfectly fine and delicious on its own, but I couldn’t leave well enough alone. I am a big fan of peanut butter, so I decided to throw some peanut butter into the mix, too. It couldn’t hurt, right?

The peanut butter and caramel melt together to create a creamy and rich sauce. When you combine it with the popcorn and cashews, you end up with a crunchy snack that will satisfy your salty sweet cravings.
