Chewy chocolate chip cookies guaranteed to bring home a blue ribbon! The edges are perfectly crisp and caramelized while the centre stays soft and chewy. They’re also super easy to make – mix them up by hand and no need to chill before baking!

Sweet & Salty Georgia Browns
A chewy salted caramel is poured over roasted pecans then topped with a thin layer of rich chocolate. These are what you make when you love someone. There’s a chain of chocolate stores in Canada called Purdy’s. Everything was going great in my life, I’d stop by once in a while for a salted caramel truffle,…
Mint Chocolate Cupcakes
Saturday morning I woke up in need of chocolate. Like, it’s the only thing I could think about. Screw getting anything done around the house, laundry could wait, that dust ball in the corner was still going to be there tomorrow, but the level of chocolate craving hangry (so hungry you’re angry) was going to…
Grace’s Italian Chocolate Tart
I received a book in the mail a little while ago that I was really looking forward to. It was described to me as full of classic Italian recipes (already sounding like a no-brainer right?). There was another little catch though, these weren’t just Italian recipes, these were Italian dessert recipes. Needless to say, I…
Ultimate Flourless Chocolate Espresso Cake
Alright folks… I’m about to share Bo’s favorite dessert recipe, but first, a bit of a back story. When Bo and I got married we went to Bahamas for 5 days, then hooked back up with my family in Florida for the annual vacation. We also decided to go out for one really nice dinner to…
Caramel Oat Bars
These bars were delicious, and one of the few desserts that I make in this house that Oliver actually really enjoyed. They’re basically the topping of a crisp turned into the crust and topping of a bar, then filled with caramel, chocolate, almonds, and toffee pieces. I can’t take all the credit for them though….
Chocolate Hazelnut Pockets
How to define perfection? Start with a crunchy exterior, add a creamy touch of nutella, drop in some whole hazelnuts, and finish it off with a dusting of icing sugar. Yep, that about does it. Perfection. I really love these. Like, really, really love these. It might be because they’re insanely easy to make, it might…
No Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Balls
These really need a better name. Suggestions welcome. I had a horrific craving for something chocolaty. Snacky. Whatever. I had a craving for something sweet after dinner and I was only willing to devote ten minutes to making them. Needless to say, I didn’t have high hopes for whatever concoction I was going to come…
5 Minute Cookie Bars
This is one of those cookie bars that you’ve probably all had, but maybe you’ve never made yourself. Well, surprise, they only take about 5 minutes to throw together, then 25 to bake. So, the next time you get that phone call from your sister/aunt/mother/friend that you’re invited to a party and bring a dessert,…
Easy Frozen Oreo Dessert
This is really a piece of cake dessert. It’s easiest made a day ahead, but even the morning of will work. It’s not actually oreos either. It’s just chocolate wafer cookies with cool-whip sandwiched between them and “iced” over the top. I didn’t take make pictures because it’s really easy to do. First off, spread…
Homemade Hostess Cupcakes
Ok, so these are straight from Cook’s Country, see here for the free recipe Chocolate Cream Cupcakes I wouldn’t say that these are the greatest cupcakes ever, and I certainly ran into some issues, lol, but they were still worth making. Really, can you ever go horribly wrong when making a chocolate cupcake? I don’t…
Chocolate Zucchini and Apple Bread
Chocolate Zucchini Apple Bread I’m asking a favor today: Don’t judge me because I give this to Oliver for breakfast, and snack, and just whenever he wants it. Ignore the chocolate and focus on the fact that it’s full of zucchini and applesauce. And it’s delicious. So, so delicious! Prep Time: 20 minutes Bake Time: 60 minutes Makes: 2…
Texas Chocolate Sheet Cake
Texas Sheet Cake Can I put this under snacks? Because seriously, I could graze on it all. damn. day. Prep Time: 20 minutes Bake Time: 20 minutes Serves: 10 (unless I’m there, then pretty much only me) Ingredients: Cake 2 cups flour 2 cups white sugar ¼ tsp salt 7 tbsp cocoa powder 1 cup butter (16 tbsp…
Jen’s Shakespeare Cookies
These are the best oatmeal chocolate chip cookies you, your Momma, your Grandma and your Grandma’s Daddy ever tasted! Seriously. The title can not lie (it’s like incapable or some shit). I had been on the hunt for YEARS (really, close to a decade) for the best oatmeal chocolate chip cookie because it’s Bo’s favorite…
Cinnamon Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes
Cinnamon Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes I put this recipe into the folder marked “How many foods can I fit into another food”. It’s a fun game, and I keep raising the stakes (like, if I can get up to 5 foods into another food, I’m totally taking myself to Dairy Queen for a blizzard, the…
