Chocolate Keto Mug Cake Recipe

January 4, 2021 by Faith Leave a Comment

This Chocolate Keto Mug Cake Recipe makes rich and moist cake with deep chocolate flavor, just the right amount of sweetness, and a fluffy cream cheese vanilla buttercream. In less than 15 minutes, you’ll have two single-serving sized keto chocolate layer cakes that are perfect for Valentine’s Day or date night at home. And the best part is, each cake only has 5g net carbs!

How many times have you wanted just a little something sweet in the evening after dinner? I’m guilty as charged, lol!

If I have fruit or dark chocolate on hand that’ll usually tackle the cravings, but sometimes only something really decadent will do the trick. Like cake.…

Chocolate-Covered Sponge Candy

December 30, 2020 by Faith 30 Comments

Homemade Chocolate-Covered Sponge Candy is easier to make than you might think. If you love this candy as much as this Buffalo girl, this recipe is for you! Here the crunch and complex sweetness of caramelized sugar candy is coated with chocolate for a treat everyone loves. We don’t talk candy much around here, which is probably for the best. Of course with the exception of things like Crispy Toasted Puffed Quinoa Dark Chocolate Candy Bars, Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups, and Paleo Candy Apple Wedges....

Cranberry Cake Recipe

December 24, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

In this Cranberry Cake Recipe, soft and fluffy vanilla butter cake is layered with vanilla buttercream and cranberry sauce for a festive show-stopping holiday dessert. When it comes to holiday treats, I usually think of cookies first. There are the classics that my mom made every year, like her frosted cut-outs and Russian Tea Cakes. And there are a few new favorites, like Maple Pecan Potato Chip Cookies....

Sugared Cranberries (aka Candied Cranberries)

December 22, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

These sweet/tart Sugared Cranberries (aka Candied Cranberries) have a hint of vanilla flavor and a ton of sparkle! They’re very easy to make and a fun project to do with kids around the holidays. The holiday season this year is so much different for all of us. For me, it’s been about making new traditions while reflecting on the past....

Eggnog Cookies

December 21, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

These Eggnog Cookies are flavored with eggnog, laced with nutmeg, and are soft and chewy inside and crispy outside. Whip up the whole batch in just over 30 minutes for the perfect last-minute addition to your cookie tray! I don’t know about you, but every year I’m left with half a jug or so of eggnog wondering how to use it. Don’t get me wrong, I love the festive flavor of eggnog. There’s just something about its rich, creamy texture and sweet, nutmeg-scented flavor that says holiday time....

Gingerbread Caramel Candy (Homemade Chewy Caramel Recipe No Corn Syrup)

December 18, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

Gingerbread Caramel Candy is a fun and festive twist on classic soft and chewy caramel candy. If you’re looking for homemade soft and chewy caramel recipe with no corn syrup, this is the recipe for you and it’s easier to make than you might think! I have a family member who is absolutely crazy about my homemade soft and chewy caramels. (I won’t mention names to protect the innocent, but she’s a certain 15-year-old sugar fiend, lol!). My homemade caramel is usually only a special treat for the holidays. This year I decided to spice things up with Gingerbread Caramel Candy! This aromatic soft and […]...

Russian Tea Cakes (aka Snowball Cookies)

December 16, 2020 by Faith 138 Comments

Russian Tea Cakes are rich and buttery cookies with a texture similar to shortbread. They’re quick and easy to make and very festive coated in powdered sugar, which looks like snow! For the last day of my 7 Days of Festive Holiday Treats even, I wanted to share a cookie from my childhood. My mom has made Russian Tea Cakes/Snowball Cookies every Christmas for as long as I can remember. Which, oddly enough, has nothing to do with the fact that my family is Russian on my dad’s side and “Russian” is in the title of these cookies. (And I have no idea whether these […]...

Gingersnap Cookies Recipe (aka Gingersnaps)

December 10, 2020 by Faith Leave a Comment

Just like the name says, Gingersnap Cookies are rich with ginger and spice flavor and should be crispy enough to “snap” when they break. Sweetened with brown sugar and aromatic with warm spices, these satisfyingly crunchy Gingersnaps are a festive addition to a holiday cookie tray. Before I moved away from Buffalo, my mom, my sister, and I had a holiday tradition. A couple times a week in December we’d get together for an afternoon at one of our houses. We’d brew a pot of seasonal tea, sometime like peppermint, apple pie, or gingerbread, and munch on cookies as we chatted....

Eggnog Pudding

December 9, 2020 by Faith 32 Comments

Spiced with freshly-grated nutmeg and laced with vanilla and cinnamon, this Eggnog Pudding is creamy and full of festive flavor! It’s surprisingly healthy too. Protein powder bumps up the protein content, and there’s no added sugar! The strangest thing happened the other day… My day was going along uneventfully until I suddenly found myself ravenous; it was between meal times, so a little snack was in order. I went for one of my favorites, carrots + hummus. Normal enough, right?...

Maple Pecan Potato Chip Cookies Recipe

December 4, 2020 by Faith 9 Comments

This Maple Pecan Potato Chip Cookies Recipe features a deliciously balanced salty/sweet flavor profile and is easy to make! They’re a fun addition to a festive holiday cookie tray. I think food-related gifts are the best gifts, whether it’s a celebratory meal you’re sharing or a plate of homemade treats. Or better yet, a tried and true family recipe. One of the biggest perks of being a food blogger is that when people hear what I do for a living, their eyes light up and their ears perk up, and they immediately ask me if I have a great recipe for such-and-such, or if I’ve ever […]...
