Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Ma’amoul cookies (aka Maamoul) feature a sweet spiced date filling stuffed into a rich, buttery, crisp cookie that’s somewhat similar to shortbread.
Different cultures have different rites of passage.

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....
Everyone loves Chocolate Peppermint Bark; it’s a delicious, easy-to-make recipe that’s great for using up leftover candy canes! While I was growing up, my mom used to solve our leftover candy cane problem by saving them to hang on the next year’s Christmas tree....
Apple Slab Pie with Nutty Oat Crumble Topping has a sweet spiced apple filling with a hint of vanilla, an all-butter pastry crust, and a nutty oat crumble topping. If you ever find yourself with a pie-loving mob at your door, this recipe will prove itself indispensable....
Orange Chocolate Cupcakes have a soft, tender crumb and are aromatic with orange and rich with chocolate. A beautiful white chocolate drizzle on top means there’s no need for frosting! There’s no reason cupcakes have to be complicated. And there’s no need for them to have a mountain of frosting on top (although I admit, mmmm, frosting! But they can be just as good without it). If you’re looking for the perfect thing to whip up for a party or gathering, my Orange Chocolate Muffins are it. They’re a wonderful addition to a dessert table (perfect for the holidays!), and if it’s a special occasion, […]...
Inspired by Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies, these Oatmeal Cream Pies with Rum-Raisin Brown Sugar Buttercream Frosting give those classic cookie sandwiches a grown-up twist! Was anyone else a fan of the Little Debbie cream-filled oatmeal cookie sandwiches (aka Oatmeal Creme Pies) as a kid? They were a very rare treat for my sister and I! Mom never bought them, which made them all the more fun to eat at our friends’ houses when mom wasn’t around. (Shhh, lol.)...
Turtle Brownies take regular chocolate brownies to the next level with the addition of pecans, soft caramels, and chocolate chips! Summer is in full swing, and along with it backyard BBQs, pool parties, and picnics. This time of year I’m always looking for a new easy dessert recipe to please a crowd! Cookies are a safe bet, and brownies are even better. I have yet to have someone turn down a brownie, especially an insanely indulgent one!...
Chewy Cinnamon Pecan Brown Butter Oatmeal Cookies have nutty, caramel flavor notes and a lovely balance of chewy and crispy textures. I went through a phase where I loved chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. I’d add just a pinch of cinnamon (because it’s a classic addition to oatmeal cookies), and use extra brown sugar to give the cookies caramel notes. With a little flaky sea salt sprinkled on top (like my Small Batch Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies), they had a balanced flavor profile and were completely addictive....
Easter Cookies with Robin Eggs Candy and Toasted Coconut are crispy outside and chewy inside. They have delicious malted chocolate, toasted coconut, vanilla sugar cookie flavor. Just like candy canes at Christmas, after Easter you’ll probably have leftover Robin Eggs candy. This easy drop cookie recipe puts it to good use! Paired with toasted coconut and vanilla sugar cookies, the malted chocolate flavor of Robin Eggs is delicious here. But you don’t have to wait until after Easter to make them. These cookies are a lovely addition to your springtime holiday dessert table....
This Fudgy Guinness Brownies with Dark Chocolate Ganache Recipe features rich, honey-sweetened chocolate brownies to balance out the flavor of stout. They’re topped with a velvety layer of dark chocolate ganache to make them extra decadent! Guinness isn’t just for drinking, and it’s not only for savory soups and stews! Guinness is a dry Irish stout that has rich brown color and coffee and caramel flavor notes thanks to roasted barley. It pairs really beautifully with a lot of baked goods, especially chocolate cakes and brownies....
