Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies
I’ve got another delicious cookie recipe for you today. A buttery flaky shortbread cookie with chocolate chips. Just so you know, short bread cookies aren’t my favorite type of cookie, they are good but most of the time I’d rather have a traditional soft and gooey chocolate chip cookie instead. But as far as short […]
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Swirl Cookies
So I am on week 10 of training for a half marathon. It’s funny because my mother in law was the one who said we should all train at the same time even if we couldn’t run it together (due to living in different states and such) but she injured her knee and hasn’t been […]

Peanut Butter Caramel Popcorn
Yesterday during some down time at work I decided to browse instagram for a few minutes. One of my favorite bloggers shared a picture of some peanut butter caramel corn and I knew that was a snack I had to make right away. I also had a half can of sweetened condensed milk left in […]
Cream Cheese Danish
After making our new recipe index with a page for each category, I realized (even more than I knew already) that the recipes I make are a little lopsided for certain categories. A lot of desserts and a lot of chicken. Although this recipe could technically be considered a dessert (and I ate it like […]
Applesauce Chocolate Chip Cookies
Do you ever feel bad eaten sweet upon sweet upon sweet, and think about how much butter and sugar you just added to your body? Maybe you don’t struggle with this problem as much as I do. But as someone who is addicted to candy and desserts sometimes I feel just a little guilty about […]
Chocolate Chip Cookies for Two
Sometimes Nate gets mad at me for making dessert recipes because I am usually pretty good at only eating 2 or so cookies at a time (I count my calories everyday, so I can still get my sweet fix without blowing my calories for the day) but that leaves a bunch more cookies to be eaten. […]
Copy Cat Samoas – Girl Scout Cookies
When I was a little girl, I think maybe 5 or 6 (or maybe even 7 or 8) I was in Girl Scouts. I was in the program with one of my best friends, and I don’t remember who the other girls were. We were first “daisies” and then “brownies” and I’m not sure why […]
Mini Cadbury Egg Blondies
When I think of Easter, I think of Easter candy. It’s sad for me to say that my mind doesn’t first go to the true importance of Easter. I am very grateful that our Savior, Jesus Christ was resurrected, and that we can celebrate it on this day. But, I do love my Easter candy. Why […]
Banana Ice Cream with Peanut Butter Swirl
Because I decided to do a one flavor cake for Nate’s birthday - triple chocolate cake - I decided I should make a fun flavor of ice cream to accompany it. Nate and I are both fans of banana flavored things, and of course you know we both love peanut butter. So I decided to make banana […]
Triple Chocolate Layer Cake
Last year for my birthday celebrate, Nate made one of the yummiest cakes I have ever eaten. He got the recipe for a chocolate peanut butter cake from smitten kitchen. The chocolate cake was so moist and the peanut butter frosting was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Topped with chocolate ganache. Perfection. […]

Actually this recipe is perfect for any time, because its delicious. What could be better than peanut butter + oreos + brownies baked into a delicious snackable […]
Orange Sweet Rolls
I use Google Calendar to organize my life. I have a calendar for my day to day life. I have a calendar for the work events I have to be at. I have a meal plan calendar. I have calendars from the executives that I work with at work. I have a blog post calendar. […]
Cannoli
For Craig’s birthday last year, Aimee and Nate presented him with a beautiful Italian Cookbook all written in Italian. Their next gift to him was a scale with grams because all the Italian recipes used grams in measuring. This past Christmas they gave him cannoli forms. Do you see the trend? Yes, we love Italian […]
