Maple Pumpkin Pie
Happy Thanksgiving! I feel like pumpkin pie is a thanksgiving standard so why not do this Maple Pumpkin Pie today! Unless you’re using a pre-made crust, generally pie recipes are a little more time consuming since you do have to make the pie crust ahead of time. I used the all-butter crust recipe that was…

No Bake Espresso Chocolate Pudding Pie
Another easy recipe plus this recipe was very rich and delicious. The crust is a simple mix of crushed chocolate cookies, melted butter, and a little espresso powder; press it into your pie plate and freeze while you make the filling. The pudding comes together on the stove and is so chocolatey. There’s a bit of whisking…

Macarons Chocolat
It’s been a while since I made macarons so I thought it was time to try again. My husband got me the Ladurée cookbook a few years ago and I’ve been slowly trying to make stuff in it, but french baking can be a little fussy. I was going to make the almond ones, but…

Intensement Chocolat
I’ve wanted to make this recipe for a while but honestly it’s been a little intimidating. Not just because there are about 5 different things you have to make for this, but also time wise. Also it’s french and those recipes can be a little…. errr… fussy. Nevertheless, the time came for me to try…

Strawberry Charlotte Cake
I have been wanting to make one of these for a while but was a little intimidated. It looks super fancy, but despite the assembly it was actually fairly easy. I did make my own ladyfingers and I was a little nervous about this particular recipe since it was a one-bowl recipe that uses whole…

Eclairs
I made eclairs a few years ago and they didn’t quite turn out. We had some friends over who wanted to learn how to make them so he and my husband had a little tutorial. While I didn’t actually make the eclairs pictured I “oversaw” the whole process to ensure quality control (😉) and making…

Orange Butter Cake
Another fun Downtown Abbey bake and honestly felt way fancier than the effort required. I made these mini upside-down orange cakes, and they looked (and smelled) like something you’d serve at a tea party, but the recipe was super straightforward. You start by prepping your ramekins and lining the bottoms with brown sugar, melted butter,…

Scones (& Clotted Cream)
I’ve made scones a lot, but somehow I’ve never made plain scones. What better place to start than a recipe from Max Miller that’s similar to ones used around 1915. We also decided to make the clotted cream too just for the fun of it. Before I talk about the scone recipe I’ll start with…

English Toffee Shortbread
The Downton Abbey Afternoon Tea Cookbook is a lot of fun and shoutout to my aunt for buying it for me. I should probably be drinking tea with some of these bakes, but so far all of the ones I’ve tried have been pretty good. This recipe was so easy, and shortbread is quickly climbing the ranks as…

Deep Dish Molten Chocolate Coffee Blondies
This one came together super fast and felt like the perfect little treat to bake when you want something warm and chocolatey but don’t want to deal with a whole batch of cookies. I didn’t do anything fancy—just grabbed a couple of ramekins and got started. You start by browning some butter, which only takes…
