Gluten free Banana Cake with White Chocolate Whipped Cream

Posted on July 6, 2015

Moist, flavorful gluten-free banana cake topped with a sweet light white chocolate whipped cream. I’ve mentioned it before, but when I bake gluten-free treats, I tend to steer towards those that are lower maintenance on the ingredient spectrum. I don’t like to keep stock of a ton of different flours because I can’t use them…

White Chocolate Cinnamon Bun Krispie Treats

Posted on May 18, 2012

Rice Krispies = Breakfast Cinnamon Buns = Breakfast -> By the transitive property of food, Cinnamon Bun Rice Krispie Treats = Breakfast Obviously.

Cookies ‘n Cream Double Chocolate Cookies

Posted on September 1, 2011

I’ve really been enjoying the Cookies ‘n Cream Almond Butter Spread I made a few weeks ago.  It isn’t the typical nut butter consistency so really the easiest way to eat it is on a spoon.  I have no problem with that! But since it is more of a dessert spread, I thought it deserved…

Extra is Better

Posted on December 12, 2010

This recipe was a complete accident.  I was making Cookie Dough Topped Brownies and feeling over-confident in my memory of the brownie ingredients.  When I got past the step of stirring in sugar, I realized something was wrong.  The batter was much thicker than it should be. Fortunately, I realized that my mistake was adding…
