Lemon meringue cheesecake…a creamy rich New York-style cheesecake with luscious lemon curd and toasted Swiss meringue.

It’s two desserts in one, sweet yet tart and so delicious! Why have just a lemon meringue pie or just a cheesecake when you could have both?!

With lemon curd ribboned in the middle of the cheesecake and a layer on the top, you get the bright flavor of the lemon in every bite…it’s like you’re eating sunshine!

A triple Irish threat in cupcake form…so Irish you may have an Irish accent after eating one!
Moist and delicious this chocolate stout cake is topped with a caramel Irish whiskey swiss meringue buttercream swirled with white chocolate Irish cream!

The flavors go so well together it can only give you good luck!

The cake is so moist and gets better the day after you’ve made them, the flavors enhance and become something that you have to give your whole attention to!

I made these for my husband to take to work to share but quickly came to regret not keeping more for us at home…although that may have been a good thing so we didn’t end up eating them all ourselves…

This Guinness Cottage Pie is the perfect way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day this year!

Beef and vegetables slow simmered in a savory Guinness broth to perfection and then topped with olive oil mashed potatoes and baked…it’s the ultimate comfort food for a cold night!

Shepherd’s pie is traditionally made with ground lamb while Cottage Pie is made with ground beef, while both are equally delicious in their own way I’ve kicked it up a notch or two with the addition of stout to deepen the flavors….and it’s delicious!

peanut satay ramen

Spicy Peanut Satay Ramen, a big steaming bowl of slurpy noodles in the middle of winter is just about one of the best comfort foods!

There’s no need for takeout when you can make it better at home. Especially when it’s super simple and fast to whip up any night of the week! I love the creamy peanut butter taste and the warm spices of the chili oil combined in this dish, as a matter of fact I love it so much I’d rather enjoy planting my face in a bowl of this ramen than go to the local ramen restaurant near me! I know a recipe is a really good one when it’s better than any restaurant’s version of it that I’ve had anywhere.

You can make it as spicy as you want by putting as much or as little chili oil as you dare…and this recipe makes two large bowls of ramen, which could easily be divided up into 4 servings. But let’s face it…you’re gonna want a large bowl to slurp all to yourself!

spicy blackberry gin sOur

on 0 111 Views

This Spicy Blackberry Gin Sour is refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness and heat!
The jalapeño slices give off a slightly smoky flavor that will heat you up during the cold weather!!

It tastes almost like a spin on a Bramble, which I love, yet has it’s own unique flavor.
And, if you don’t like gin you can switch it up for vodka…
If you don’t have blackberry syrup just throw in a 1/2 ounce of simple syrup and a few more blackberries when muddling the fruit and you will achieve a similar result.

The fun thing about cocktails is that you can really make them your own by switching up some of the ingredients…play around and see what you come up with and share what you create!
