I’m still recapping foods made in April! This is the last recipe I made for the ladies at my church’s annual Women’s Retreat. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to attend since I had a bunch of studying to do, but I was glad to at least participate by providing the food. It sounded like it wasRead more
I didn’t used to be a cake person. When Sister and I were little we always chose ice cream cakes for our birthdays, and not the new modern kind that have cold cake at the bottom, just straight up ice cream in the shape of a cake with a ganache on top. So when askedRead more
This was my first attempt at fudge. It was a great recipe, very easy and delicious! I’d definitely like to try some other variations, maybe some darker chocolate, some with nuts, maybe a swirl of peanut butter. Whatever variations you decide to do, this is a great base, and great on it’s own in itsRead more
Here is another fabulous recipe from Grandma. These were apparently one of her go-to recipes when having guests over in Japan. Blondies are non-chocolate versions of brownies, but with the addition of chocolate chips these are like soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies. They’re absolutely delicious.

Warning: this is highly addictive. This is popular with people that don’t like chocolate, this is popular with people that don’t like mint! This is great for a salty, sweet, minty, crunchy treat! There’s a little bit of everything in here and the possibilities are endless. While this isn’t really “cooking” it’s a great assemblyRead more
Yesterday was Pi day. I’m not really a math person, but I’ll take any excuse to celebrate pie!

This is aRead more
