Blueberry Crumb Bars

First, I’ll admit that I had no idea what the difference was between a cobbler and a crumble until I began writing this post. According to the internet a cobbler usually has more of a biscuit or cake-like topping that’s spooned over the fruit in blobs (think “cobbled together”). A crumble, on the other hand,…

Flourless Hazelnut Cookies with Chocolate

I ran across this recipe because I was looking for something gluten-free and that used hazelnut flour since I had some in the pantry I needed to use. You whisk together an egg and some brown sugar until it gets light and fluffy; then you stir in the hazelnut flour, some finely grated chocolate, and…

Gluten-Free Maple Pecan Shortbread

I’ve been on a bit of a shortbread kick lately, so when I saw this maple pecan version, I thought it sounded perfect for the holidays. The recipe also looked super simple, which is always a win. You start by mixing everything but the pecans; just beat it all on low until it pulls together…

Chocolate Orange Shortbread Cookies
Again—shortbread for the win. These were super easy to make, just a tiny bit more effort than some other shortbread recipes since I melted a little chocolate and added some orange zest on top, but honestly, that extra step made them feel kind of special. It starts off by mixing the sugar and orange zest…

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…

Millionaire Bars

I was intrigued when I saw America’s Test Kitchen make this recipe on their YouTube channel so I thought it would be fun to try and it was supposed to be similar to a Twix so that sounded good. This recipe is easy, but takes a little time just because there are layers. First you…

Maple Shortbread Sandwich Cookies
Maple is a flavor I really don’t bake with often; though I have made a pretty delicious maple bacon bourbon cupcake before! These maple shortbread sandwich cookies looked like fun so I thought I’d give them a try. I have only made shortbread a few times before and have found it to be a little…

Lemon Shortbread Squares

Every once in a while I get into a big lemon kick and get in the mood to have something like lemon squares. I made those a few years ago so I decided to try a new recipe this time. Similar to the other recipe I used the crust is very simple to make and…

Key Lime Shortbread Cookies

I thought I had made shortbread before, but apparently not. This looked like a fun recipe (and started with the letter K) so it made the “to bake” list. This is honestly a super easy recipe in terms of ingredients. You beat the butter and sugar together and then add everything else. I got everything…

Cherry Vanilla Shortbread Tart
It’s a little early for cherry season, but I had a lot of cherries on hand and didn’t want to waste them so I found this recipe. I’ve only made two tarts before; a Berry Cream Tart and a Roasted Tomato Tart. I’ve decided I really like making tarts. They’re easy, look really pretty, and…
