Gluten Free Tres Leche
Tres Leche is a favorite recipe of my brothers… and now I have perfected the recipe to make it Gluten Free so my sis-in-law and myself can enjoy it as well. A fun Birthday treat! We always do a family dinner for birthday’s and I always get to fix a dessert for my brothers birthday. This year he wanted Tres Leche, which I love, so I decided to try a GF version so we could all enjoy it. Now I am not going to lie I was a little nervous. Sometimes gluten free recipes, especially baked goods, can feel gritty and dry, but I was hoping all the milk would…

Bunny Bait
Easter is just a hippy hop away (get it…a bunny hops) & that means it is time to break out some of those fun Easter treats and this bunny bait is definitely one of my favorites. This super quick treat is perfect for all your Easter baskets, teacher treats, neighbor treats or just a fun yummy for the kids. A treat for everyone The beauty of this little Easter bunny bait treat is that you can use almost any combo of candy that you like. This time I used robins eggs, plain M&M’s and sprinkles with popcorn and pretzels…but you could use chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, mini chocolate caramels, mini peanut…

you have been good…time for a brownie
We have been so good for the whole first week of 2016 and this weekend calls for a little treat…right? And a brownie sounds like the perfect treat and these brownies laced with cream cheese make them an ultimate treat for sure. Overtime I make these brownies they are gone before I can get a good pic so this last time I decided to set a few aside so after our company left I could take my pics…well that isn’t how it quite worked out. My husbands family was over playing one of their favorite card games and as they played they kept eating the brownies…everyone LOVED them! Eventually all…

a little espresso pick me up
Brownies are a HUGE downfall for me! As I am sure you can tell from my many brownie recipes they are definitely a must have in our family…but I think I have found my most favorite brownie…EVER! Another favorite of mine is coffee and really, really strong coffee (really espresso) at that, so the idea of bringing together 2 of my favorites sounded like a match made in Half (baked) Heaven for sure. Espresso powder has been used with chocolate for years & years to help accentuate the chocolate flavor but to make espresso a predominant flavor sounded like a must make delicious treat. My favorite espresso powder comes…
