Chewy, buttery oatmeal cookies recipe packed with Halloween candy. Monster cookies from butter and sugar creamed base with M&Ms, marshmallows, candy bar pieces, and caramelized melted candy corn.

Blueberry Oatmeal Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches (+ Dairy Farm Tour)
Possibly the best cookie that I’ve ever made, this blueberry oatmeal white chocolate chunk cookie is chewy inside and crispy on the outside. Taking it to a whole new level, I’m stuffing ice cream between two of them for the ultimate summer sweet treat. — Also included in this post is my experience visiting a…
Banana Caramelized White Chocolate Cake
That iconic warm banana bread flavors in a fluffy, light layer cake nestled between rich caramelized white chocolate buttercream. This cake recipe is a show-stopper that will be the highlight of the house. Something happens when a house is filled with the warm essence of banana bread (does that not sound like a perfect candle??)….
Hummingbird Crêpe Cake
I’ve been more excited than a 30-something year-old should ever be over a cake for the release of this recipe. When I was testing the last recipe I posted, I was on a crêpe-makin’ roll and made a bunch of extras to just play around with some ideas with. After I just ate a handful…
Strawberries & Cream Crêpe Cake
Oh la la! Crêpe cakes are always impressive. Luckily, these stunners look like they took far more effort than they actually do. Using fresh, plump & juicy sweet strawberries from my local Kroger along with my favorite whipped buttercream, this show-stopper centerpiece is the best way to bring in the Spring season. Like I said……
Maple Glazed Cruller Donuts
Sometimes you just need a donut. If y’all are anything like I am (heaven help you…), a quick donut recipe is one that you will treasure. This donut is a bit unique in that it is made with a French pastry dough that puffs. It’s exactly the same base that cream puffs and eclairs are…
Maple Glazed Pecan Hot Cross Buns
Hot cross buns… Hot cross buns… Da da da daa… Da da da daaaaa… Candied pecan maple glazed hot cross buns! — I didn’t really grow up with these in my house in early Spring and Easter, but certainly have always enjoyed when I can get my hands on them now. Sweet, buttery rich bread…
Frosted Blueberry Coffee Cake
Coffee cake could possibly be my all-time favorite brunch bite. The crumble streusel topping, sweetness with a buttery cake. Nearly anything is elevated when served with coffee for me, but this cake, well… takes the cake. I’ve aired my frustration that coffee cake doesn’t have actual coffee in it (and took care of that in…
Creamy Sausage Feta Pasta Bake
Have y’all seen the viral TikTok feta baked pasta video where people toss a block of feta with some tomatoes, bake it, and finish with pasta? I normally tend to pass by these kind of short-lived recipe feature things without much thought, but kept hearing from other blogger friends that this was actually pretty tasty….
Old Fashioned Cocktail Apple Butter
Old fashioned cocktail meets good ol’ Southern apple butter in this simple spread recipe. Seriously good apple butter with the added kick of bourbon, bitters, and maraschino cherry. When I was a kid, applesauce was one of my favorite lunch sides. It’s kinda weird that as an adult I don’t really love cooked apple things….
