I’ve recently come to the conclusion that fast-food muffins are basically cupcakes. I know it’s not shocking, but when I ordered a muffin from my school’s coffee shop and it came topped with chocolate drizzle and powdered sugar, I couldn’t bring myself to call it a muffin. Besides being over-sweet, store bought muffins can be…

Cake Batter Chocolate Chip Cookies with Sprinkles
Cake batter in cookies is one of the greatest baking discoveries I’ve come across on the internet. My perfect cookie is soft, chewy, and colourful. These cookies check off all three of those requirements (plus they smell AMAZING) so I’m devouring them pretty quickly. This recipe is directly from Sally’s Baking Addiction, just like my…
Quick Multi-Seed Crackers
This was my first attempt at making homemade crackers and all things considered, it went pretty well. The only thing I did wrong with this recipe was I didn’t roll the dough out thin enough so my “crackers” are more like baked pita bread, but they still taste good. One really cool thing about these…
Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies with White Chocolate Chips
I first saw the concept of cake mix cookies on Sally’s Baking Addiction, an amazing blog for everything sweet and baked. The recipes and photos are all drool-worthy so check it out if you get the chance! I personally love chewy cookies way more than crunchy cookies, so using cake batter for the dough instead…
Baked Eggs in Tomato Cups
Rushed mornings should not mean no breakfast. You can prep this recipe in 2 minutes the night before (literally) so everything will be ready to go in the morning. Bake the cups while you’re doing your daily morning routine so by the time you’re ready to leave you can eat this and go. This recipe…
Chocolate-Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies
The best thing about Valentine’s Day is undoubtedly the cookies. I got the cookie recipe from Created by Diane and just altered the choice of toppings. I used crushed hot chili flakes on top of semi-sweet chocolate (I’ve always wanted to try it) and it tastes really good! You can use crushed nuts, candy, sea…
Salted Chocolate Caramel Cookies
Whenever I see chocolate cookie batter out in stores I always drool over it but I’ve never attempted to make it myself. I was surprised at how well this dough turned out on my first try; it’s super easy and my friends and I had a great time making them. I used mini rolos for…
Gluten-Free Banana, Walnut and Raspberry Yogurt Mini Muffins
A lot of people struggle in the morning with eating breakfast, let alone packing a proper lunch. Mini-muffins are perfect for people who don’t have a big appetite in the morning, or who don’t have a lot of time. You can store them during the week for when you’re in a rush, and they’re gluten-free!…
Gluten-Free Gingerbread Cookies
Although making a gingerbread house from a kit is fun, eating it never tastes that good. The gingerbread has been in the box for a while and lacks flavour. The icing is basically hard sugar. Sure, it looks pretty, but I don’t want to eat it. So that being said, homemade gingerbread is a thousand…
Peanut Butter S’more Brownies
Love s’mores? Me too. I made these for my friend’s birthday and just cut them up into squares instead of baking a birthday cake. I’m personally not a huge fan of just plain ol’ cake, so these were a major upgrade. These brownies are pretty easy except beware of burning your marshmallows. Kind of like…
