I just got back from Minnesota last week. I went home for my nephew’s graduation and while home, I got the chance to make my Dad a special father’s day dessert and he loved it. Okay, he maybe loved my Mother’s Dessert a bit more, but he still really liked it. He’s not a moron, people. He would never say he didn’t love it because Tanya Drama would ensue and that could get ugly. Fast. 😀
Strawberry Cheesecake Lush
PLEASE NOTE: I've fine-tuned the recipe to prevent it from collapsing and to have better defined layers. Okay, I'm late. Like real late. Mother's Day was last Sunday and I'm now just posting my Mother's Day dessert. I have a good excuse! You see, I last track of time and over-baked the dessert I ... [Read more]
Shortbread Cookie Bites
I have a love/hate relationship with cookies. I love eating them; I hate making them. Baking is something I do more out of necessity (desserts are my most viewed posts) versus really love to do. Thus, I try to keep my desserts simple, and cookies, while not difficult to make, are more hands-on and ... [Read more]
Chocolate Candy Cookie Bars
Last summer when I was visiting my parents, my nephews and niece typically ate lunch with us. Their parents were working and Grandma's cooking beats frozen pizza :) One thing I noticed is that they really loved the M&M ice cream cookie sandwiches my Mom had for dessert. So when I saw these bars ... [Read more]
Chocolate Chess Pie
First, I have to apologize for my absence. It wasn't planned, but you know how sometimes you just don't feel like blogging? Even though you have things to say? That was me this month, and I decided to honor those feelings. Sure, a good blogger posts consistently. But a good blogger also cares more ... [Read more]
Strawberry Cheesecake Poke Cake
Yup, that's quite a title. Thankfully, this cake lives up to its humdinger of a name too. I've been eyeballing this recipe for a long time but wanted to wait to make for Mother's Day. What's that — you say? Mother's Day is weeks away. Ummmm ... no, it's not. Mother's Day is on May 8th or a week from ... [Read more]
Lemon Sour Cream Pie
I love pie. They are so tasty and gorgeous. But I hate making them. Hate. It. Mine may taste good but won't win any beauty pageant awards. Sometimes, they look pretty mangled, like a little kid made them or a wild animal ravaged it. Pies are my mortal enemy in the kitchen. Okay, that's a bit of an ... [Read more]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bites
Glorious food. Oh how I love thee. You, on the other hand, love me too much. You cling to my thighs, my belly, my booty. You and I are in the midst of a change of guard. For far too long, you, dear food, were in control. And I was your humble servant. This will no longer be the case. I am taking ... [Read more]
