These blondies are one of my family’s new favorites! They received such a huge response from my siblings and dad

Carrot Cake Recipe
This cake definitely did not disappoint. It’s moist, full of flavor, and beautiful. I thought that I would end up sending some of it to work with James but we kept the entire cake here and didn’t share it with anyone! That rarely happens. For […]
Funnel Cake Cake
Cakes and I have a terrible relationship where I follow all the “Cake Baking 101” rules to a T and my cake still looks like I did it blindfolded, upside down and while on crack. The terribly frosted, crumby sides. The topsy-turvy lean. The poorly […]
Spinach and Feta Meatballs
This article said it best: “Meatballs are an inexpensive blank canvas” – I couldn’t agree more. I was brainstorming meatballs ideas ALL DAY on Friday… (I’m a very complex person.) So we had a little meatballs taste-testing sesh on Friday night… (Hey, that’s my idea […]
Strawberry Rhubarb Sorbet
I’ve had rhubarb sitting in my fridge for two weeks. There were so many things I wanted to do with it, but I’ve actually never made anything with rhubarb before. I finally decided I should start small, both due to my lack of experience and […]
Chocolate Cinnamon Rolls
INGREDIENTS Dough… ¾ cup Milk 3 tablespoons Butter, melted ¼ cup Sugar 2¼ teaspoons Yeast (1 pkg) ¼ cup Water 1 Egg 1 teaspoon Salt 3½ cups All Purpose Flour Chocolate Cinnamon Roll Filling… ¼ cup Butter or Margarine, softened ⅓ cup Sugar 1-2 tablespoon […]
Salted Caramel – 3 MINUTE FUDGE
Some things: 1. Sometimes, after a long and particularly hellish day at work, school or what-have-you, I want nothing more than to get home ASAP and blast the nastiest, heaviest rap I have in my car and allow the bass vibrations to give me a […]
Cheesy Chicken Jalapeno Popper Taquitos
So I’ve officially decided that my Mexican “craving” is not a craving. It’s a constant need. A craving… you can get rid of, right? It’s like, a temporary thing? Well my Mexican needs are not that. Because I’ll eat Mexican, only to want more of it the […]
Butterfinger Bomb Cake
It’s kind of hard for me to talk about Butterfingers without wanting to shove like 7 of them in my mouth. It’s even harder for me to talk about this Butterfinger Bomb Cake without wanting to stick my FACE in it so I’m literally eating […]
Old Fashioned Pancakes
Diving into a stack of Old Fashioned Pancakes is akin to a comforting embrace from a nostalgic past. These pancakes, with their fluffy and delightful texture, can turn any breakfast into a celebration. Just a handful of common kitchen ingredients come together to create a […]
Snickers Cookies Recipe
So these SNICKERS® cookies are a great way to handle hunger. They’re packed with peanut butter, chocolate, and smothered with little bites of SNICKERS® chocolate bars. (I loaded mine up with several of their varieties- Almond, Peanut Butter Squares, and traditional!) Ingredients 1 cup sugar […]
Dude Food Magic Bars
These Dude Food Magic Bars aren’t for the faint of girly heart. They don’t contain sprinkles, they aren’t low-cal, and don’t even ask if butter’s a carb because butter, carbs and butter carbs are all contained within these sinful bars. I realize that I’m generalizing […]
Easy Fried Bake Asian Fish
It is almost impossible to cook with no carbs, no oil and no sugar in Asian recipes. That we discovered when my girlfriend Mel decided to put herself onto a diet that is absent of these 3 ingredients, for a whole 6 weeks under the […]
Snow White Cake
It was like a dream: St Petersburg’s Eliseyev Emporium is overflowing with delicious sweets, from candy to macarons, to savoury treats, but it was these sugar-spun apples, delicate like glass figurines that I could not pass up. We’ve only just returned from our Baltics trip […]
Passion Fruit No-Bake Cheesecake
After months of mostly apples, oranges and bananas, our local grocery store had passion fruit on sale last week. It just seemed too good an opportunity to pass up, and so I decided to bring a few rays of sunshine and flavours of warmer months […]
