pecan sandies

Tis the season for cookies and since it’s the week of Christmas there’s no better time to heat up the oven and get to baking! Try these delightfully crumbly pecan sandies and you might never want to buy them from the store premade again.

This year we made up some care packages with Chex mix and cookies to deliver to our friends and family.
Even though it’s not a traditional Christmas this year with the pandemic still going on you can still find ways to make it special. Take a little drive and do a doorstop drop off with some goodies to your favorite people! Make new traditions this year to carry on throughout the years!

mexican wedding cOOkies

Some people call these cookies Mexican wedding cookies, others call them Russian tea cakes or snowball cookies….they have different names, but whatever you decide to call them we can agree on one thing…they are melt in your mouth delicious little bits and are addicting!

I had every intention of making these and giving them as a care package to my brother in a Christmas tin this year, but one taste and my husband shook his head and said with his mouth full, “you aren’t giving these away”. So, sorry bro…these cookies are already over half gone the first night! I’ll need to make them again and double the batch I guess for any to get to you. lol

dOuble dark chOcOlate cream pie

Thanksgiving this year is very un-traditional…so why not try an un-traditional pie this year?

Keep the pumpkin pie for next Thanksgiving and go a little more indulgent for this one. Or perhaps this will be your new holiday go-to pie?? The best part is that you can eat this whole pie yourself and not have to share it…so take as big of a slice as you want lol. Quarantine pie never tasted so good!!

mexican spice cupcakes with dulce de leche buttercream

How do you make a moist chocolate cake better? By adding Mexican spices that’s how! A bit of cinnamon, a little bit of ancho chili powder, and warm it up a bit with cayenne pepper…and don’t forget my dulce de leche Swiss meringue buttercream! It’s a killer recipe!!

I knew it was a winner when my husband ate it by the spoonful and made noises while he licked the spoon. lol

I always make myself a yummy dessert for my birthday, not only because my father in law shares the same birthday but because I like to get creative with some of my favorite recipes and see if I can elevate them. So I took my favorite chocolate cake and did just that. These babies are so good you’ll want a second one…and maybe that’s exactly what I did.

chai apple Oatmeal cOOkies

Nothing quite says fall like apples, cinnamon, and chai spices…so why not combine those flavors with a comforting and hearty oatmeal cookie?

I love Bravetart’s Triple-Oatmeal Cookie recipe so I played around with the flavor profile and came up with these babies! Fall in one bite!! A delicious and nutty cookie that combines rolled oats, steel-cut oats, and oat flour makes for a chewy delicious cookie…not to mention the little bites of dried cinnamon apples that send it over the top!
