    Do you remember the first dessert you ever made? Mine was panna cotta. Ok ok, it wasn’t the very first dessert I EVER made, but it was the first dessert I made by myself when I started on this food journey! I remember being so proud of making it! I realized I’ve made it a couple times since, but never wrote a blog post on it! So, today I’m bringing to you a little variation on a typical panna cotta, because I made this one with healthy and amazing kefir! I love making a panna cotta in a champagne glass.…

    Imagine marshmallow and chocolate melty s’mores, but add a hint of strawberry flavor to them, and you have these amazingly melty, chewy, best ever strawberry s’mores cookies! This is a small batch recipe, as it only makes 9 cookies. However, it’s so good, it’s definitely gonna be a repeat bake around here! These will  be gone in a flash!  I’ve had the idea for these for a while. I think it stemmed from me being obsessed with s’mores last summer, and realizing they were even better when I added strawberries to the s’more! The thing about strawberries and baking though,…

    If you have no self control when it comes to pumpkin, or chocolate, or muffins, this recipe is for you. It’s a small batch recipe – it makes only 6 muffins! But trust me, it hits the spot! These are the fluffiest, softest muffins, which feel so light as air, that they are a little too easy to eat – good thing there are only gonna be 6 of them. No one’s stopping you from making them again though, just sayin. I also dipped the muffin tops into my butterscotch sauce – and the amazing factor just doubles.  Now, for…

    Grapes and Pomegranates! The underdogs of Fall fruits, but the stars of this Cobbler! I had been meaning to make a cobbler all summer, but just ran out of time.

If you’ve been following me for a bit now, you know I LOVE my apple and pumpkin desserts. However, I wanted to go in a different direction with this recipe, and shine a light on some fruits that usually look great as…

    If you love Fall, but you’re still soaking in some of those summer vibes, this is the easy peasy dessert you should make this week! I was able to get my hands on some end of summer peaches!

I added brown butter to it, and it has this great nutty, buttery cinammony flavor that is amaaaazing! Top with some fresh whipped cream and pomegranate arils/berries, and you’re all…
