Death by Chocolate Cake
This is one of those recipes where nothing is technically hard, but it definitely takes some time. You’re making cake layers, a syrup, a big batch of buttercream, and then pressing tiny chocolate chips into the side; it’s not difficult just a bit of a process. Let’s start with the cake: moist, rich, dark chocolate layers that…

Chocolate Babka
I’ve been wanting to make babka for a while. Like most bread recipes though, I look at how much time it takes and convince myself I’ll try it another day. I finally buckled down though and decided to do it and I’m so glad I did! While this recipe does take a little time, it…

Classic Birthday Cake
I love a good yellow cake with chocolate frosting and decided to try out this recipe for a family gathering. You may notice I often use recipes from some of the same people and while I try to branch out a little it’s also nice to have some go-to people who I know are reputable…

Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
These were a staple cookie in our house around Christmas so when I ran across this recipe it looked like it would be a lot of fun. The recipe we used growing up is probably the same one everyone used where you made peanut butter cookies and then topped with a Hershey’s Kiss. The dough…

These marshmallow-stuffed cookies were such a fun bake (though a little messy). I was a little skeptical about how they’d hold together, but once the dough chilled, they were super easy to work with. You start by melting chocolate with a little oil (I used a microwave since it’s a little easier in my mind…

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…

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…
