What could possibly make brownies any better? How about topping them with the salty, peanut buttery goodness that is a Reese’s peanut butter cup.

Saucy Teriyaki Meatballs

Little saucy balls, aka my street name. Just kidding (maybe).

To me, summer time means trips to the farmer’s market even in the sweltering heat, and picking up the most delicious produce, especially fresh delicious peaches that are so sweet and juicy you think you just might die.

Cream Puffs

Cream puffs (or pâte à choux if you’re feeling particularly french today) are often perceived as a fancy foo foo dish. Don’t get me wrong, I feel very luxurious when I eat them, and serving them to friends and family usually gets a few oohs and ahs. But these little puffs are deceivingly easy to …

Honey Bourbon Peach Ice Cream

Coconut Berry Cornbread Muffins

Recently, my tik tok has been flooded with the audio of an old Lifesavers commercial. It’s got a medieval looking man who sings “Berries and cream, berries and cream, I’m a little lad who loves berries and cream!” and you know what, I AM a little lad who loves berries and cream. So I set …

Chewy Maple Pumpkin Cookies

Imagine jumping into a giant pile of leaves on a crisp fall day. Yeah this cookie is pretty much the equivalent of that feeling.
