Confection recipes.
I am a sweets fan. Who doesn’t like the occasional Thanksgiving pie or Easter cookies? I make myself a cheesecake for my birthday every couple of years.
So, for when you want to indulge! Largely holiday themed because they give us an excuse to splurge.
But go ahead. It’s Tuesday. Make that key lime pie.
People like to say that Graham Crackers make the best cheesecake crust. And, while this is a classic way to go, it’s not necessarily my favorite cheesecake crust out there. It’s a solid choice. It’s great for kids. Although there are other cookie options! Personally, […]
I made a Moroccan Orange Cake for Christmas this year. I had literally half an orange leftover at the end and, in hindsight, should have maybe bought just a couple of extra oranges. But I have just enough to make a couple of Candied Oranges. […]
I made a plethora of cookies for a holiday cookie exchange. Although I spent the entire time knowing that I was going to make Moroccan-inspired food! So, I almost wanted to do a Moroccan-spiced cookie to match. Although, I’ve had a ton of things going […]

Do you ever just have a long week and want a cookie? I’m kind of a cookie fiend. I can’t keep butter in the house because I’ll inevitably make cookies. If it was up to me? I’d have cookies all year round. We have this […]
I have to admit that I’m a whipped cream snob. I know that that’s not the most couth thing to say. But there is absolutely nothing better than homemade whipped cream. It’s surprisingly easy to make. All you need is heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, […]
Candied Limes are incredibly simple to make. You can use any type of rined fruit, from lemons and limes to oranges and even grapefruit. All that you do is add sugar, water, and citrus slices to a pot and simmer until the desired consistency is […]
Homemade whipped cream is a truly glorious thing to behold. There are so many strange and bizarre additives to most store-bought whipped creams. They’re full of artificial ingredients, stabilizers, and flavors. Personally, I try to avoid things like corn syrup and artificial flavorings. I’m much […]
Yes, I did indeed make three different types of cheesecake for my birthday this year. And no, I will absolutely not apologize for it. It was absolutely delicious! None of the cheesecakes were bad. They’re all variations of my favorite New York Cheesecake from The […]
