The Perfect No-Bake Dessert for Hot Summer Nights
Summer is no time to give up on dessert. Sure, your air conditioner is blasting 24/7 and you’re wearing far less clothing than during the other 8 months of the year, but skipping dessert? Not worth it. Not when there are fresh berries and stone fruit to be had. While I may be slightly more […]
Mango Curd and Rice Pudding Parfaits
If there’s one thing y’all should know about me, it’s that I don’t consider myself a baker. I don’t have the patience to test five different versions of a potential recipe and experiment with how leavening agents affect a baked good. It’s not entirely my fault, I didn’t grow up in a household where baked […]

These are the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies on the Planet
It’s a bold claim, I know, but I’ve had these tested by Adam an official cookie expert, and the verdict is in: these are the best chocolate chip cookies on the planet. Since they’re chock-full of nuts, coconut, and oats, one might call them a “monster cookie,” but the fact remains that they’ve beat any […]

Orange Carrot Cake Trifles
One of the best ways my mom communicates love is through carrot cake. Seriously. Her co-workers know that it’s gonna be a great day when she shows up to the hospital (she’s a psych nurse) holding the covered dish that houses her famous 3-layered orange carrot cake sandwiched with orange cream cheese frosting. It’s insanely […]
Curry & Brown Sugar Holiday Snack Mix
Is anybody else craving simplicity this holiday season? Maybe it’s the fact that I’m coming off of a week of two turkeys, three pies and more overindulgence than I’m willing to admit, but this week, I’m just looking to simplify. Don’t get me wrong, I’m as pumped for the holidays as the next gal — […]

If Making Pie Scares You, This Plum & Thyme Tart Is for You
While I’m not totally freaked out by the idea of making pie from scratch (Callie helped demystify it here and showed us how to decorate it here), let’s just say that it still feels like a big production for me. One that I’d attempt when I have a long, lazy Sunday afternoon ahead of me, or maybe for […]
Wine Poached Plum & Almond Cake
Fall is finally upon us! After one very long, hot summer, I can’t help but feel immense joy at the thought of the cozy sweater-wearing months ahead of us. I’d be lying if I said this wasn’t the case last year and the year before that, too, but somehow, each year the anticipation and excitement […]

These Frosé Popsicles Just Made Summer a Lot More Fun
It’s no secret that I’m a major rosé fan – my Instagram feed is like a Where’s Waldo of pink wine with bottles and glasses peeking out of perhaps a few too many shots. And come summer, the only thing that makes a chilled glass of rosé even better is when it’s frozen (i.e. frosé) and we just […]
