I got this idea when I was in the cookies aisle at the grocery store. It just kind of occurred to me, if I can put a milk dud inside a cookie, then why not a cookie inside a cookie. First thing you wanna do is make your cookie dough and place it in the […]

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 […]
Baked Spaghetti
I feel like spaghetti is everyone’s go to move. You know what I’m talking about, you just got home, have been running around all day. Don’t want to make mac ‘n’ cheese again. So you decide on spaghetti. But, in the back of my mind when I serve spaghetti I always kind of feel like, […]
California Club Sandwich
I have never been a huge fan of clubs, but I figured I’d try this anyway cause it just looks so yummy, and it didn’t disappoint. I think it’s the sour dough bread that make this sandwich so amazing. But all the flavors together were just so so good. I really liked this sandwich too, […]
Island In the Sun Cupcakes
This week I’m going to have 3 beach themed cupcakes on here because I’m making the cupcakes for my sister’s wedding, which is on the beach. This is a vanilla cupcake with orange cream cheese frosting. The cupcake is super yummy, but the cream cheese frosting is what makes this to die for! The sand […]
