This lemon yogurt cake is the perfect summer dessert and even tastes better on the second (and third) day after baking. It’s so easy to make, you don’t even need an electric mixer! Try it with a side of fresh berries or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For those interested in making a healthier [...]
When I first saw this recipe I wasn’t sure what to think – chocolate bread? When would I eat this – for breakfast? As dessert? I certainly wouldn’t be making a sandwich with it. As it turns out, anytime is a good time for chocolate bread! This delicious snack has a great texture – chunks [...]
The moment I saw this recipe, I knew I needed to make these. They require a bit of work, but are worth the effort – they are delicious! This was my first time making soft pretzels, so I took and posted many more photos than I normally would – I hope you find them helpful. [...]

I’m not sure whether or not this is actually considered a cookie, but these are so good that it doesn’t really matter!
