Ultimate homemade cinnamon rolls recipe with a salted whiskey cream glaze icing. I’m not quite sure why cinnamon rolls became a Christmas morning tradition in so many households, but I sure am glad that mine was one of them growing up. Cinnamon, sugar, sweet dough. These make for the best aroma in a house after…

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…
Bananas Foster Bourbon Bundt Cakes
Say that three times fast…. after eating some of this glaze icing. How often do you all find yourself sitting around the house in your adult-fit onesie, watching YouTube recordings of early seasons of The Great British Bake Off, an Old Fashioned in hand, thinking of new blog recipe ideas? That’s a regular Saturday morning…
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…
Elvis Dessert Waffles
Go ahead… Take a hot minute to just look and drool over these waffles. Just a couple months ago, I took a little break from the busy streets of Nashville to visit the super-busy streets of London. It had been a couple years since I had been previously, and with a shiny new camera in…
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…
Chai Caramel Cream Eclairs
Hey, y’all! It’s been a hot minute, I know. Summer (I guess it’s actually technically spring still… but this heat tells me we skipped spring and went straight for summer.) has been kicking my ass. I randomly decided to move into a new place in Nashville. Good and bad about that. Lots of huge, bright,…
Raspberry Habanero Margarita
You may have noticed that I’ve been on this sweet and spicy kick lately. I used to be one of those anti-spicy people, but have slowly started enjoying it in the right situations. Pretty sure I have Nashville hot chicken to blame for that. When I was asked to toss in a margarita recipe for…
Simple Dark Chocolate Ganache Tart + Sugared Raspberries
A classic tart is one of the top 10 desserts that you should have in your back pocket notepad o’ recipes. It’s my go-to for impromptu dinner parties or events that I was asked to bring dessert for weeks ago and completely forgot about until the day of. When you run a blog called Southern…
