Most of you have probably tried these or at least heard of them. Why are they so popular you might ask. Well, try them and you’ll know. These are my husbands absolute favorite, which is saying a lot, because although I might call him “a human garbage disposal”, he is super picky when it comes […]

Taffy Vanilla Truffles
One last dessert before we start the work week 🙂 and what could be better for curing a case of the Mondays then Chocolate!! Some of you might recognize that this recipe is going to be very similar to the Oreo Truffle recipe that I posted a little while back, but I liked the Oreo […]
Raspberry Citrus Bars
You will never go back to a normal lemon square after trying these! Don’t get me wrong… I love a really good lemon square recipe, but I’m seriously debating about altering my lemon square recipe after trying these bars. And it’s not what you would think. Although the raspberries do give the bars a really […]
Extra-Chocolatey Brownie Cookies
It’s about time for some more desserts 🙂 I needed a chocolate fix so I made these the other day and they turned out so delish!! If you aren’t really a nut person I would only add 1 to 1 1/2 cups of nuts, but I liked them just how they are. I used pecans […]
Strawberry Sunrise Crepes
The inspiration for this recipe came from a trip we took last winter to Mammoth, California. One of the mornings we stopped at this little hole in the wall cafe, called The Side Door, to have breakfast and this is what I had. Well in the course of the next two days, I ended up […]
Caramel Stripe Cheesecake
Before this recipe I had never made cheesecake before, and was always kind of under the impression that it would be difficult. It was actually surprisingly easy! The hardest part was waiting for it to cool before eating it 🙂 I love this recipe because not only is the cheesecake so yummy and smooth, but […]
Spiced Chocolate
I’m gonna be a little rough on this recipe. First, the good parts. I loved the flavor! Very interested. It’s almost hot, like as in spicy, which I liked. It gave the chocolate a lot of depth and interest as per taste goes. So I’m glad I tried this. On the down side, how in […]
Shredded French Dip
I love this recipe because it almost effortless. I just throw the roast in the crock pot on low the night before and then turn it up to high when I wake up. Quick Tip: the roast needs to be completely covered with water, but too much will dilute the broth used for the sauce. […]
Layered Lemon Pie
So I have this theory that there are two different types of dessert people. The people that love desserts with fruit, and those that will tolerate them, but if they had their rathers, they would prefer a good chocolate cake or cookie. I happen to be in the first category. Some of my favorite desserts […]
Banana Bread Muffins
This is kind of a twist on your traditional banana bread. My kids love having banana bread as a snack, but having it in a loaf means every time they want some I have to stop what I’m doing and go cut them off a slice. Which is no big deal once, but when it’s […]
