Here we are, y’all. Mid-summer. Weekends at the lake, failed diets, patio parties with friends. It’s all in full swing and I’m not going to do anything to slow down the pace. Put those crazy college tequila memories aside. I’m going to show you my favorite frozen infusion for all of my summer shindigs. We’re…

Lucky Charms Marshmallow Treats
You’re always after me Lucky Charms Rice Krispies! — That’s right, folks. I’ve transformed one of our most viewed recipes, the Best Rice Krispies Treats, into a loaded version of the nostalgic favorite handheld sweet. When life gives you a pound of cereal marshmallows, you have no choice but to toss them in with some…
Plum Glazed Cake Donuts
A week or so ago, I was wandering around the Nashville Farmer’s Market with some friends when it hit me. Like a glimmer of a hidden treasure chest in the corner of my eye. The older lady behind the table must have seen my unconscious excitement, and started to try and sell me on the…
Naan Campfire S’mores
Everyone loves a good s’more. These nostalgic treats are the type that you randomly crave at the most inconvenient times. Crisp graham cracker, gooey chocolate topped with the lightest, cloud-like marshmallows. It’s the best of everything. We’re bringing the campfire into the kitchen with this oven-baked naan based s’more recipe.
Blackberry Lavender Cream Paletas
Summer time, and the livin’ is eaaaasyyyy. If there is anything that says “Hey, Summer! Let’s do this!“, it’s a popsicle. I’ve come a long way with my pop-making repertoire since pulling those long plastic sticks from the freezer (or drinking them before they were frozen, if we’re honest with each other) as a kid….
Churro Ice Cream Sandwiches
I’m pretty sure that in another life, I was a Mexican street food stand. Tacos, tortas, churros. Any of the road-side favs, really. I recently found an area of Nashville that has the absolute best tiny truck tacos in town. Also, they are like a dollar a piece. A DOLLAR, Y’ALL. Forget the fancy-pants hipster joints…
Baked Apple Crumble Dumplings
Hot pastry, cold ice cream, warm apples with cinnamon. Y’all know this is where it’s at. Instead of the typical apple pie, I decided to make the most out of one of the rare, stuck-at-home snow days in Nashville with a bit of a twist on the classic favorite. Spiraled apples, because obviously that way…
Boozy Root Beer Whiskey Cream Floats
I’m starting to have those twitches in anticipation of Spring. I’ve had absolutely enough of this cold, snowy mess. What I haven’t had enough of is cold, messy drinks. Any excuse to pour whiskey and root beer and more whiskey over ice cream is a good excuse to me. In anticipation for the upcoming Super Bowl…
German Roasted Candied Pecans
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! Chag Sameach! FROHE WEIHNACHTEN! [I feel like German should always be screamed, ja?] — Also, keep reading for my pre-Thanksgiving Christmas content disclosure. Hopefully y’all know what these beauties are just by seeing that cone. I was walking around the touristy Opry mall this past weekend here in Nashville, and hit the wall-o-roasted-German-nuts smell…
Caramel Apple Pops
I can remember being in middle school (just a few years ago, ya know…), back when they used to allow kids to buy Pop Tarts as lunch items, have assemblies to show a yo-yo performer that wanted to sell you the world’s best yo-yo (Yes, I bought two.), and candy was sold for a quarter…
