Chocolate Rye Brownies with Bourbon Caramel
I guess I’m just going to continue the whole chocolate theme for the month with these. I don’t expect anyone will have too much protest for that, right? These chocolate rye brownies with a bourbon caramel swirl and crunchy pistachios are a unique, toasty twist on a fudgy brownie. Rye flour is something that I’ve…
White Chocolate Peppermint Madeleines
Buttery rich French madeleines dipped in white chocolate with a sprinkle of festive peppermint candy cane pieces. Perfect morning or afternoon bite-sized perks with coffee or tea. Made simply with butter, flour, sugar, and eggs. One of my favorite memories from visiting Paris was picking a random arrondissement in the morning and walking around. You could…
Malted Chocolate Raspberry Cake
Incredible chocolate devil’s food cake recipe layered with malted milk chocolate raspberry whipped ganache frosting. Finished with chocolate drizzles and fresh raspberries. Powdered sugar, because why not? I’m not even sure where to start with this one. Devil’s food cake? Raspberry ganache? I mean… malted raspberry chocolate ganache?! Come on, y’all. How could you not want…
Whiskey Salted Caramel Ice Cream Sandwich
This past weekend, I drove back to my home state of Kentucky for the first of many warmer weather lake weekends. It was finally warm enough to feel like that dreadful winter blaaaah had left us for good. It seems only appropriate to celebrate spring and summer finally showing it’s pretty little face with a twist…
Malted Milk Chocolate Macarons (Robin Egg)
Move over Easter Bunny, I’m taking over the candy gig this year! — The absolute best part of the spring season, other than the actual daylight after noon that we finally get, is the candy. Y’all know what I’m talking about. It’s those bags of malted milk candy shell eggs that pull me into the…
Spiked Peppermint Mocha Mousse
I’m ho ho home for the holidays and basically surviving on everything peppermint for the rest of the year. Growing up, we would go to my grandmother’s house for Christmas every year. One thing was on my mind during those trips (other than presents, obv). Peppermint ice cream. Do you remember the type? Litte bits…
Cinnamon Marshmallow-Iced Shortbread Cookies
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Boar’s Head. All opinions are 100% mine. I have two new obsessions. Shortbread everything and marshmallow everything. Not that these are really all that new, but I tend to go through phases where I go ballistic with making recipes with some key ingredients that…
Blueberry White Chocolate Ganache Truffles
You’ve all glued yourself to those chocolate shop windows with the gorgeous filled truffles, right? You know what I’m talking about… When the shop owner bangs on the window because your face is pressed up against the glass and you’re drooling all of the outside. One of those places. Turns out, they aren’t as hard…
Eclipse Mirror Galaxy Glazed Moon Pies
It’s no secret that I am a total nerd. Working as a research biologist goes hand-in-hand with my love of very technical baking. Lately, there has been a huge geek-fest going on because of the upcoming eclipse. This is the first total solar eclipse in the continental US since 1970. People are losing their minds…
