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.

The Fundamentals of Cheesecake Crust

June 15, 2023

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, […]

Moroccan Orange Cake w/ Candied Oranges

Candied Oranges

January 12, 2023

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. […]

Moroccan Orange Cake w/ Candied Oranges

January 8, 2023

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 […]

Trifle w/ Raspberries & Red Zinfandel

December 1, 2022

Trifle is one of those holiday favorites that I grew up with every now and then on special occasions. I ordinarily use strawberries. Although strawberries are few and far between on the cusp of winter! So, I’ve opted for raspberries. Which are equally delicious, but […]

Chocolate Chip Cookies w/ Pumpkin & Fresh Ginger

October 30, 2022

I used to try and keep a log of recipes that I made. I know that I had a go-to pumpkin and chocolate chip cookie recipe SOMEWHERE. Although where exactly, I do not know. Was it in a Word document? Can’t find it. Was it in […]

Oatmeal Cookies

August 28, 2022

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 […]

The Fundamentals of Homemade Whipped Cream

June 1, 2022

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

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 […]

Whipped Cream w/ Tequila

May 22, 2022

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 […]

Margarita Cheesecake w/ Tequila & Lime

May 22, 2022

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 […]

Top 5 Overrated Kitchen Gadgets NOT Worth Buying

Top 5 Overrated Kitchen Gadgets NOT Worth Buying

I hear what you're saying. The holidays are upon us. The overpriced culinary gadgets are finally on sale. But put down that copper pot. Step away from the Vitamix. And rethink that Instant Pot. Your counter space is too precious to spend that much money on things that you'll probably never use! Although, I do have some more useful recommendation, if you still think that you might want an all-purpose cooking contraption or fancy 19th century kitchen. Plus, nothing on this blog is sponsored. I just don't like it when people waste money on cooking fads. NAME ONE PERSON WHO ACTUALLY USES AN AT-HOME PRESSURE COOKER.
