I mentioned a few weeks ago how my sister was requesting chocolate desserts, and I realized I hadn’t made anything super chocolate-forward in a while. These brownies were a response to that. I decided to make the darkest chocolate brownies I could. Because, also, how else do you make plain brownies exciting enough to stand…
Cut-out Cookies – Strawberry and Chocolate Root Beer
I find most cut out cookies to be… very boring. Sorry. Just, in the world of cookies, they are so plain. The frosting is usually the best part. But the “Cookies, rolled flat before baking” category at the State Fair specifies no icing. So… it’s a small box to get creative in. And when the…
Brown Butter Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies
The only State Fair category for oatmeal cookies is “Oatmeal cookies with no mix-ins.” Which seems crazy to me! Oatmeal cookies are all about the mix-ins! It’s always oatmeal raisin, and then having oatmeal chocolate chip seems so next level. But without mix-ins, you do really need to think about that dough. So, naturally… I…
Corn Toffee Cookies
I used to associate corn cookies solely with Milk Bar. But, I’ve recently been seeing a lot of corn cookie content online. I think they’re becoming a more common cookie option? And amidst all this content, I saw someone make corn cookies with toffee in them. Which sounded brilliant! So of course I had to…
Korvapuusti
On my trip to Finland earlier this year, I of course decided that I had to try baking some classic Finnish baked goods. Korvapuusti is their word for cinnamon rolls. They are slightly different than American cinnamon rolls, obviously, and that’s mainly due to their shape and the cardamom. (And the lack of a 1:1…
Chocolate Root Beer Float Cookies
I am in State Fair mode for the next two weeks – I need to lock in on getting all my bakes practiced. So when my brother asked if I was bringing snacks to the Sharknado screening in the park, I decided to impulse bake these and get another one crossed off the list. I’ve…
Corn Blueberry Checkboard Ice Box Cookies
The math concept I use probably the most in my Real Life is Lowest Common Denominator. It’s a useful one for baking. If you want to make a smaller batch of something, divide all the ingredients by the LCD. Which is typically the smallest amount of something that you can’t break down any further. Usually,…
Chocolate Pistachio Zucchini Bread
I have aired my complaints with the “Dubai Chocolate” trend by now. I won’t bother you all with them again. I have just come to terms with the fact that chocolate and pistachio are a wonderful flavor combination, and we didn’t need Dubai to tell us that. So I will be calling everything “chocolate pistachio”…
Strawberry Birthday Cake
We celebrated my sister’s birthday a week early, when my family was all in town. And then, of course, for the actual day… we had to do a mini celebration again! Which meant: two cakes! She requested a chocolate-forward cake the first week, and then this strawberry birthday one the second week. Two very different…
Mohnkuchen
This Mohnkuchen is no joke, when it comes to the poppyseeds. It will re-define what a poppyseed cake means. As I think it should! Poppyseeds are the main event. Mohnkuchen is the German name for it, and as with many German desserts, it’s loaded with almond flavor, and it’s not too sweet. I remember learning…
