Ruby chocolate is the perfect Valentine’s Day ingredient…and what better way to enjoy it than hot chocolate?!
Ruby chocolate is slightly fruity and not overly sweet which pairs perfectly with the floral notes of hibiscus tea, and freeze-dried raspberry fruit powder enhances the fruitiness of the chocolate without overpowering it.
These tequila lime sugar cookies are like a soft pillowy bite of margarita! Think Lofthouse-style cookies and a classic margarita combined in one…what’s not to love?! And bonus I’ve found a non-alcoholic version of tequila that tastes the exact same!
And for all the non-drinkers, dry January just got a little bit more exciting!! Not to mention New Year’s celebrations!
I happened upon a brand of non-alcohol spirits called CleanCo Clean T that is a UK company that sells tequila, rum, gin, and vodka…so since I don’t really drink I decided to give the tequila a try. I mean…I miss a good mixed drink! And let me tell you it did not disappoint at all! It tastes just like the alcoholic version.
I can’t wait to try the other spirits they offer. Give them a try and get creative, do a little drink mixing and some baking with it and let me know what you create.
These soft and pillowy cookies are reminiscent of the Lofthouse sugar cookies but with a hint of maple and speckled with pecans…and so delicious you’ll keep coming back for more!
A perfect cookie to transition from fall to winter and dare I say you may not want to share them. lol
Día de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead is upon us and this year I decided to make these festive skull cakes that are drop-dead delicious!
While I don’t generally celebrate the Mexican tradition of Día de Los Muertos I most certainly can appreciate the celebration to honor and remember deceased loved ones. I’ve always loved the costumes and makeup associated with the holiday…the splashes of colors and the dancers all decked out. It would be amazing to go and see and be a part of the celebration!
The perfect cold-weather sandwich has arrived. Enter the cider-braised pot roast patty melt…chuck roast slow-cooked to perfection in a hard cider broth, chopped into a hash, and piled high on grilled sourdough bread. It’s crispy, cheesy, and full of fall flavors!
Just in time for your Halloween dinner too…and the best part is you can make the slow-cooked pot roast the night before and just warm it up to make the sandwiches. The pot roast becomes more flavorful overnight sitting in the cider broth. It’s autumn between two slices of bread.
Prepare yourself for something truly frightening! Spooky cakes that taste just like a glazed cider donut!!!!
Now there’s no need to go to the orchard every time you have a cider donut craving…just whip a batch of these up and you’re set! Especially for Halloween, you’ve got to use the spooky skull and tombstone pans. We don’t get trick or treaters at our house so in order to get into the “spirit” of Halloween so this is how I like to make it feel festive…that and dressing my dogs up in costumes lol.
So whether you’re going to or throwing a Halloween party, or just staying home and watching some scary movies these cakelettes are a perfect scary addition to your frightful night.
