A new way to sundae
Confession time…I never once had a traditional strawberry shortcake until I was in my 20’s. Growing up my mom and grandmothers made their own version of “shortcake” with pie crust. Yep you read that right…pie crust. It is all about the crust My dad’s most favorite dessert is crust and strawberries. It is really as simple as it sounds….it is pie crust topped with chopped strawberries. The key is the super flaky and very tender pie crust, and how we cut it. Trust me this will change how you think about pie crust! Double duty crust recipe My MeeMaw and Mom have been using this recipe for both these…

Like no Brownie (Pie) I have ever had
Brownies are a favorite in our house. I have made almost every brownie version imaginable. One of our favorites are these Oreo Caramel Brownies and these Pumpkin Caramel Brownies are a perfect option for this Thanksgiving. Oh but wait there is so much more to brownies now. It is Pie time… Pie is a must have at our Thanksgiving celebrations. Do you have pie for Thanksgiving? What kind are a must? Pumpkin, sweet potato, apple? In our family there is always a fruit pie of some sort, a pumpkin pie, and normally a pecan pie (I never said we were very exciting). This year though I wanted to shake things up a…

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…

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…

let’s go…go…go for some oatmeal
Let’s talk about breakfast. Do you eat breakfast everyday? Do you LOVE breakfast or is something you have to do? Do you change it up or do you eat the same thing everyday? Are you always in a hurry in the morning and need something that is easy and already done when you wake-up? How about overnight oats that are ready when you get up? For me I am eating breakfast everyday…NOW, but that has not always been the case. Breakfast is not something I LOVE or think about or crave but in the last few months all of that has been slowly changing. For the New Year I have…
