TWD: Honey Nut Brownies
Sweet, sweet TWD. It’s been too long. I have been a major slack-a-saurus with my Tuesdays with Dorie baking. I think I just got burnt out on all the sugar. Then I saw the words “honey nut brownies” and stopped in my tracks. I had to make them. Love me some honey! Here’s what you […]
Peanut Butter Pecan Blondies
Are you relieved that there’s no pumpkin in this post? I feel like you might be. Joke’s on you, though- I still have lots of pumpkin inspiration that I plan on slipping in during the winter months. You’ll be pumpkined when you least expect it! Back to today’s little treat. Let me introduce you to […]
Caramel Pumpkin Streusel Pots
What luck! This week’s Dorie pick fit right in with my Pumpkin Palooza. The original recipe is for a caramel pumpkin pie, a basic pumpkin pie with a deep caramel mixture swirled in. I was in no mood to make a pie crust, so I went a different way. I made a half recipe of […]
Fold-Over Pear Torte
I’m always so surprised with myself when I make a Dorie recipe before the posting day. This is one of those months where I feel like I’m in the Dorie groove (the Tuesday groove, anyways. I have been majorly slacking on FFwD. I’m just not used to it yet!). This torte was surprisingly delicious. I […]
TWD: Peanut Butter Crisscrosses
Peanut butter cookies. This was a nostalgic baking session for me, as I’m sure it was for many other TWD bakers. I can remember having these cookies at my aunt’s house every Christmas. She used to make tons of Christmas cookies, and this was one of my favorites in her holiday line-up. Jasmine of Jasmine […]
TWD: Oatmeal Spice Shortbread
This week’s TWD pick was actually called Espresso Chocolate Shortbread, picked by Donna of Life’s Too Short Not to Eat Dessert First. I decided to go with Dorie’s “playing around” version, removing the espresso and chocolate and adding oatmeal and yummy spices. Dorie’s shortbread recipes are pretty basic as far as ingredients go. The only […]
MY Tuesdays With Dorie Pick: Oatmeal Breakfast Bread (Muffins)
The time has come! My Tuesdays with Dorie pick! I chose Dorie’s Oatmeal Breakfast Bread. As I was contemplating my pick, I tried to act like I was going to pick something decadent and chocolatey and sinful, but in the end, I kept coming back to this recipe. I guess I’m sort of granola. I […]
TWD: Chewy Chunky Blondies
Okay, I am mildly obsessed with blondies. I have always had a secret love for them. There’s just something about the chewy, nutty, sweetness of it all. Given the choice, I will almost always choose a blondie over a brownie Unless it’s some kind of amazing zero calorie brownie. I’d obviously go for that, who […]
TWD: Brrrownies
It’s TWD time, people! This week’s pick is Dorie’s Brrrownies, chosen by Karen of Welcome to Our Crazy Blessed Life. This was an easy recipe for me to complete, especially while out of town, and I am so thankful for that! We’re staying with a dear friend (and bachelor) who is a little low on […]
TWD: Rum-Drenched Vanilla Cakes
Fun Fact: I just made this a few hours ago. Dorie says to let it sit overnight before you taste it, so I can’t really tell you if it’s great or not. I tried a little piece before hand, and it was just okay. I promise I’ll report back after it sits a little bit. […]
