Holy moly, this is the truffle to end all truffles. You guys. These truffles are rich, chocolatey, and has the perfect amount of booziness. What's not to like? This recipe combines really simple ingredients, requires very little hands-on time, and looks so, so good. They make great holiday gifts or bring them to your next [...]
I was watching Friends the other day, and in the episode, Monica had just broken up with Richard. With her apartment taken over by the hoard of fresh berries and fruit, she said, "I'm sick and tired of being depressed about Richard. I needed a plan. A plan to get over my man! And what's the [...]
When it comes to desserts, I'm not the biggest fan of the cookie category. My husband begs to differ. With just the 2 of us in the apartment, it's just not worth it to bake a whole batch of cookies since my husband will eat the majority of it. This cookie recipe will whip up [...]
This cream cheese pie recipe is from my husband's grandmother. She makes this for many special occasions. I am fortunate enough to have a slice every time I visited. It's so yummy, and feels lighter than cheesecake. This tastes great with a berry syrup topping, or just fresh berries. Now that I'm a part of [...]
Hello readers! I've been so busy in the past few months (moving back home and all that jazz), that I haven't really found time to be in the kitchen.

Folks, get ready for a really long post. Today, I will be sharing with you not one, but two different ways to make the classic Italian dessert that is tiramisu.

Fun fact: some of my favorite desserts come from Italy. Among them are tiramisu and cannoli! I can never resist a good cannoli, even if I am stuffed or if it costs $5. Cannoli and I are for life. Over the summer, my boyfriend and I started a "cannoli challenge" where we tried multiple cannolis offered [...]
My boyfriend and I are celebrating our anniversary tonight with a lovely picnic in the park. For dessert, instead of the traditional picnic staple -- pie, I decided to go with a galette this time. Why? Because I'm lazy. Really, that's the only reason. Galettes take so little time to prepare, and it tastes [...]
Two weeks ago, I went to Chicago, and stop 1 was Magnolia Bakery. Ever since my first time there in New York City two years ago, I've been obsessed. It's just that good. After coming home, I had a lot of pudding withdrawals, and lucky for me (and hopefully for you!) Magnolia Bakery actually has [...]
I finally made rum balls! This is super long overdue, since Christmas was four months ago. My boyfriend and I decided to make some rum balls for fun. Neither one of us are big on alcohol, so he brought it into the lab and they were a hit! Buzzed chemists running about all day. [...]
