Creme Brûlée
Creme Brûlée is one of those desserts that feels quite fancy yet it’s so simple. Personally, I’ve also been a little intimidated by this dessert; you’ve got to do a water bath and torch the top. It just seemed like there’s a lot that could go wrong. Nonetheless, I wanted a simple but elegant naturally…

Old-School Tiramisu
Last year I discovered an amazing Tiramisu cupcake recipe and while they are amazing, it’s been a while since I made an actual tiramisu so I decided to give it a go. I ended up going with the recipe for Bon Appetit because I liked the fact that you could make this in a loaf…

Soft Pretzels
I love a good soft pretzel, especially during the fall with some beer cheese or German mustard to help celebrate Oktoberfest! Last year we discovered an amazing sweet german mustard that goes great with soft pretzels as well so if you’re feeling adventerous you should look for that or find a recipe to make it…

Cream Biscuits

Cast-Iron Skillet Pizza Margherita
I’m playing around with having some kind of theme for some of my postings so this month I’m focusing on various bread and bread-like recipes. Since kids are back in school I chose this recipe to kick things off since it’s a great recipe to make ahead for super easy weeknight dinners. Now, I know…

Dessert Baked Potato
When I was growing up there was a restaurant in our town that served “dessert baked potatoes.” It was ice cream rolled in a sweetened cocoa mixture then topped with whipped cream and a few other toppings. We only ate there once or twice, but it had a lasting effect on our family and was…

Chocolate Icebox Pie
Recently my grandfather and I were talking about pie, which isn’t really abnormal; but, he was telling me that he grew up eating Chocolate Icebox Pie. Having never heard of this pie before I wondered how it was different from Chocolate Meringue Pie, Chocolate Cream Pie, Chocolate Chess Pie or Chocolate Silk Pie. I’m still…
