If you like mint and/or chocolate, this is it. If you like those little York peppermint patties, this is it. If you don’t like York peppermint patties (like me), this is still it. If you’re looking for an easy after dinner treat… you know it. Perfect Peppermint Thumbprints Print A simple version of [Read more >>]
Funny story about how THESE eggs came about. What’s also funny is how your brain thinks as a blogger/recipe developer… A commercial for Rice Krispies came on for these cute little rice krispy treats with little candies hidden inside. Right away I thought – chocolate easter eggs! Hollow ones to stuff candy, money, or whatever you want [Read more >>]
I amaze myself, I really do. And not in a overly confident kind of amaze. I am seriously surprised that I pull off some of the treats I make. Like these adorable bunnies and lil’ chicks for example. Anyone that really knows me, knows that I am not always the most graceful person. I have been known to pour [Read more >>]
A few things I’m loving right now: My new Kitchen Aid mixer that I got for $130 off! Meyer Lemons – if you haven’t, you need to. These cake bites! I’ve been so excited to show you these… I have been waiting since January to use these little sour candy things (aka rainbows) I found at Target in the dollar section. [Read more >>]
I’ve seen so many cute treats for Valentine’s Day – from cake pops and cookies, to elaborate cakes. But I needed something NOW. Something that I could whip up fast that will stay fresh for at least a couple days and something that will hold up when being shipped in mini flower pots… Just stick with me, it will all make sense.

Its like asking a parent to choose their favorite child. Some are just too cute not to be included. Some too delicious. [Read more >>]
I could begin by telling you a story about our new friends living in the basement, but I’ll spare you. These mice are not a brand new creation, but they are a classic. If you haven’t ever seen these – here they are! If you haven’t ever made these – do so. I promise, people will [Read more >>]
Who would’ve thought these little Turkey Cake Pops would be so popular!!? Ok, ok, so as soon as I made them and looked at their googly little eyes, big beak and candy corn tail – I knew. They just have so much personality! Each one of them. Whether they have a cute face or stink face. [Read more >>]
I found these at this super cute blog, Sweet Tooth. Warning: be prepared to want to bake your heart out for the next week year after visiting her site. I seriously printed out 5 recipes and added them to my Recipes I Must Bake Real Soon queue. That queue is huge by the way. I [Read more >>]
