Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie
Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! What better way to celebrate than making a giant skillet cookie?!? I tried one at a restaurant years ago and it was drenched in butter so I was hopeful this recipe was a lot better. We bought the America’s Test Kitchen Cast Iron cookbook so I used that recipe,…

Chocolate Cheesecake
I know I’m in the middle of a cake series and this might be a little too outside the box, but the word cake is in the title so I think it counts. Plus it’s a nice little break from typical cake. Cheesecake is great, but it’s often finicky and the water bath can be…

Baked Alaska
I’ve been wanting to try Baked Alaska for ages, plus who doesn’t want to use a cooking torch?? I opted to use a Test Kitchen recipe since I feel like a lot of people said this was fairly difficult and they’re good at testing different kinds of ingredients/methods to find the perfect recipe. The cake…

Cheerwine Chocolate Cake
I grew up eating Coca-Cola Cake so when I ran across this recipe for Cheerwine Chocolate Cake I thought it would be fun to try it and see what difference there was (if any) in taste. This is a super simple cake and perfect if you need to take a cake somewhere since you make…

That Chocolate Cake
Someone on Instagram posted this cake recently and since my husband loves chocolate cake (especially ones with ganache icing), I knew I had to add it to my “to bake” list. I wasn’t able to find Scharffen Berger cocoa or unsweetened chocolate in our grocery stores so I had to purchase it online. The cake…

Rocky Road Cake
Rocky Road ice cream is one of my favorites so when I saw this on Instagram I immediately added it to my baking list. I knew this would be a stretch because it involved a few things I’ve either never tried, or haven’t done very often. The actual baking of this cake was easy. Be…

German Chocolate Cupcakes
I’m not normally a fan of german chocolate cake, merely because I don’t love coconut. It’s more of a texture thing rather than taste because I made this Speckled Malted Coconut Cake last year and liked it, but I don’t love strands of coconut in most baked goods. German chocolate fit the theme of a…

Chocolate Cream Pie
Happy Pi Day! I love chocolate meringue pie and had been wanting one for a while. My husband has used a good recipe in the past from America’s Test Kitchen so I looked through our cookbooks and found this one. He swore it was the same one he used to make chocolate meringue pie last…

Salted Dulce de Leche Cupcakes
I follow Pies & Tacos on Instagram and it’s always fun to see the different macaroons and cupcakes showcased. I’ve been wanting to play around with Dulce de Leche but was still a little nervous about cooking it on the stove so I used the Oven Dulce de Leche recipe for this particular cupcake recipe.…

Chocolate Scones
I realized I hadn’t tried a chocolate scone yet so I did a little research online and ended up going with this recipe from Sugar Salt Magic. I chose this recipe because it was triple chocolate and I thought it would be fun to use the biscuit cutter for the scones rather than doing the…
