A few years ago, in 2021, I had a pretty great October 30. I flew across the country from LA to NYC on a JetBlue redeye. Which was not the fun part. But that evening, I went to see Harry Styles perform a Halloween show at MSG! Truly a concert to remember. And also a…
Apple Butter Cheesecake Crumble Bars
Apple butter is going to be the name of the game here for a few posts. I hope you’re all okay with that. It’s an obsession of mine and I’ve been feeling inspired to use it in a few ways. For this recipe, I was thinking it might pair well with some of the miso…
Matcha Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats
These Matcha Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats came together like it was kismet. I needed to get rid of some extra Rice Krispies after making these Pistacharoos. I asked my brother for flavor ideas, and he suggested matcha. And when I realized I had some leftover strawberry jelly in the fridge to use up, I remembered…
Pistacharoos
My sister recently purchased some Pistachio Cream from Costco, but she didn’t realize quite how sweet it was. (It claims it uses “no refined sugar!” but has 13g of added sugar… that’s unrefined…) So she gave it to me to bake with. I have made some good use of it – macarons, cake, and now……
Peanut Butter Milk Bar Pie Bars

Coffee Toffee Blondies
Sometimes I think of an idea, like Coffee Toffee Blondies, and I wonder how I haven’t come up with it before. Then I look back at the blog and see that I actually have come up with at least similar ideas. Oh well, it’s like having a “brilliant minds think alike” moment with… myself. And…
Strawberry Shortbread Bars (AKA Funeral Bars)
These are Strawberry Shortbread Bars, but in my head I’ve always called them Funeral Bars. For the very simple reason that I had them for the first time at a funeral! And it stuck in my head, so I’ve call them that in my head every time I’ve made these. Which has been a lot…
Black Sesame Swirl Brown Butter Blondies
It’s amazing how long low-priority things can stay on my to-do list. I bought some black sesame butter in LA about 2.5 years ago, meaning to bake with it, and I just… never got around to it. It sat in my pantry so long that it eventually expired, and I had to buy some more….
