Nothing screams “Summer!” quite like ice cream. And, sure, you can go with the traditional–vanilla, strawberry, chocolate–once you’ve mastered those, it’s time to move onto something something more adventurous. Actually, “mastered” might not even be the right word. Did you know ice cream actually isn’t all that difficult to make? It’s true! Outside of the…

Coconut Almond Bars & Classic Yellow Birthday Cake
Did you miss last month’s recipes? Now’s your chance to catch up. Not only did I make myself a birthday (apparently you aren’t supposed to make your own birthday cake, but who cares!), but I also make something that incorporates both coconut flakes and almonds (two things my boyfriend hates but managed to love this…
Classic Yellow Birthday Cake
Classic Yellow Birthday Cake With my birthday coming up in a few short days, I wanted to make a classic: a yellow birthday cake. Both easy and delicious, there’s no wrong way to decorate a classic yellow birthday cake. It’s an “all about the taste” cake, so don’t feel like you have to do something…
Coconut Almond Bars
Coconut Almond Bars When it comes to baking, these bars are as healthy as they get. Due they have a decent amount of sugar? Of course. Can we taste the butter? Absolutely. But there is also coconut and almonds, which means these are the epitome of ~healthy snacking~ right? Okay, maybe not. But they’re delicious,…

Lunch was always a PB&J on wheat bread. And these taste so much like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich that I can’t…
Brown Sugar Orange Triangles & Peanut Butter Cookies
It’s so hard to believe that it’s already April–and Spring! I don’t know about you, but I was getting tired of snow…and snow…and more snow. Don’t get me wrong, it gave me the perfect excuse to stay in and bake, but sometimes it’s nice to have a bit of sunshine and not need to ear…
Banana Bread
Happy Easter! Today I wanted to share something that’s quick, easy, and completely stress free: banana bread. To be honest, I never set out to make banana bread. I get a bunch of bananas for breakfast, don’t end up eating all of them, and, just as the rest are starting to brown, realize, oh yeah!…
Peanut Butter Cookies
Who knew peanut butter cookies were so easy to make? I admit, this wasn’t the original recipe I’d planned on for this week, but, after a snow day/ work from home day a few days ago and a strong desire to bake something that wouldn’t take up a lot of time, these were so easy…
Brown Sugar Orange Triangles
These brown sugar orange triangles have a problem. I never have enough icing. Okay, so there’s *technically* enough, but I always have a bad habit of “tasting” the icing. One taste leads to another then another then another then… Well, you get the picture. Other than that, they’re great! They take a bit of time…
