I need this Chocolate Pie…NOW
I think I could eat pie everyday, given the opportunity. I love a good creamy filling topped with more yumminess all wrapped in a flaky crust. Doesn’t it just sound so good? Well, if you love pie too you have to try this Chocolate Cream Pie…it is a must make for sure!! Chocolate, please… My favorite pie of all time is definitely a chocolate cream pie. I just love the deep dark chocolate filling paired with a fully whipped cream topping, making each bite OH SO GOOD! For this pie I used bittersweet chocolate. The sis-in-law and I prefer a dark more bitter taste. If you wanted a lighter chocolate you…

Easy Peasy Pie Crust
Do you make your own pie crust? Did you just look at me (thru the computer) like I am a crazy person? I know, I know, why make your own crust when you can buy it? Well, the short answer is…it is so much better and its easy!! It’s easy? YES!! You throw everything into a food processor and voila your done. I mean you still have to roll it out but pretty much it’s done. I love this because you don’t really have to worry about over working the dough and it has come out perfect each time I have made this version. Plus I am little crazy and anytime…

a S’more isn’t just for camping…
S’mores are a favorite of mine. I love the combo of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows…it is summer in a bite. NO campfire needed… One of the hardest parts of having s’more is they are traditionally cooked over a campfire, or at least a flame of some sort, but the beauty of these s’mores is that you don’t need a fire of any kind. It is COOKIE time! Getting the fun started… Every good s’more is loaded with graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows and now they are mixed into a cookie. This chocolate chip cookie recipe is balanced perfectly with white sugar and brown sugar. There is also the perfect amount of butter and salt making…

celebrate with cookies
The 4th of July is just around the corner (like next week) and these cookies are a perfect way to celebrate!! These are not just chocolate chip cookies? So what makes these so special? Simple, pudding. Yes there is pudding mix in the cookies, making them super moist and tender and oh so good!! The pudding also adds another layer of vanilla goodness giving these cookies something people will remember. Sprinkles everywhere! To make these already delicious cookies even more fun I threw in some sprinkles. Now you could use any sprinkles you have on hand, but I went with red, white and blue for the upcoming Holiday. Not only…

easy peasy peachy peach cobbler
What is the one dessert you have to have in the summer? Is it something lemon? Chocolate anything? Pie? For me it is definitely cobbler and peach cobbler is a must!! Peaches are everywhere When I walk through any farmers market or in the produce area of my grocery store I see, and smell, fresh peaches everywhere. There is just something so summery about the smell of a peach. It just screams summer to me! Now obviously cobbler is not the only thing peaches are good for, you can grill them and top them with ice cream, or you can make a peach pie…but for me cobbler is the way…

double the peanut butter goodness
Peanut butter cookies are a must make for the summer (at least in my family). The Hubby loves them, the Dad loves them and my Mammaw loves them. A good peanut butter cookie to me is soft in the center, crispy on the edges and dusted with sugar giving each a bit of extra sweetness and a little crunch. These cookies are all that a little more…I added in some peanut butter chips for an extra bit of peanut butter goodness. They are so easy! One of my favorite things about these peanut butter cookies is the fact that you can mix them up and bake them immediately…no chilling…

caramel makes me happy
I LOVE caramel anything really. I love it in my coffee, I love it on ice cream, I love it swirled into cakes and I especially love it with brownies. Over time I have made a couple of caramel brownie recipes (like this one) but this new recipe is The Hubby’s favorite one hands down. For most of my other caramel recipes I use my super easy homemade caramel sauce (recipe can be found here) but for this brownie recipe I used the caramel candies. You know those little square bits of yummy goodness wrapped in that annoying cellophane…well just because I love caramel (& The Hubby) so much I unwrapped them…

remaking the oreo
I love Oreo cookies. At any given time you can find at least 1 package in my pantry…right now I have the original variety and the new S’more variety. PS… the s’more options is so, so good, especially for the summer. As much as I love the Oreo cookie I also love incorporating this favorite into cookies, pies and bars…today we are all about the cookie. If you have spent very much time here you know I love cookies…and I make a lot of cookies for The Hubby, my family & friends. One the years I have made everything form a traditional chocolate chip cookies (this is our favorite…

sheet cake updated for Honey
My mom’s birthday was not too long ago and we had a big family dinner to celebrate her. My brother and sis-in-law grilled out my mom’s favorites (ribs) and I was responsible for dessert and a side (the side recipe will come soon). For the dessert I asked her what she wanted and she said sheet cake…sheet cake really? THE DARKER THE BETTER (AT LEAST FOR ME) In my mind I was thinking about a beautiful layered cake, maybe cupcakes or a even a pie but mom wanted sheet cake…so I decided to take our family’s favorite sheet cake recipe and amp it up a bit…to make it a dark…

Oreo Lasagna
There are certain foods I CANNOT have in my house because I will eat all of it and this dessert is full of one of those sinful treats…OREOS! I love all Oreo’s and yes I think I have tried most of the varieties….but my favorite is the original. There is just something about the chocolate wafers and that delicious creamy middle…I just love them. A surprise…. The Hubby loves Oreo’s as well, so when I told him about this dessert he was so excited and asked me to fix it right away, & has asked me to make it several times since, so it is definitely Hubby approved. The last…
