Peanut butter cups are a simple, well-loved treat that are fun to make. They’re easy, cheap, addictive and you don’t need an oven. I’m in. My friend brought these up to my cottage earlier this summer, and needless to say they were devoured. I’ve always been a fan of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups but I…

Baked Cinnamon Apple Chips
Apple chips are a versatile food in the sense that they can be a little chewy or a little crunchy depending on how you slice them. They can also be thrown into salads, soups, sandwiches and cereals. I got this recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction and they turned out really well. The first apple was…
Lemon Tarts with Fresh Fruit
I’ve never been big on baked lemon desserts…until this little tart came along. Most of the lemon desserts I’ve tried in the past have been made with what I assume is artificial flavouring or a sugar-overload which drowns the lemon taste completely. These tarts have a good balance between the semi-bitter lemon zest, the tanginess…
Hobbit Hole Cake
My inner geek was pretty satisfied eating a dwelling from a Tolkien novel. I made this cake for a friend’s birthday and I think they were pretty pleased with it. I normally make cupcakes because I’ve never been a big fan of cake myself, but after I was done putting it all together there was…
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…
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…
Monica’s World Famous Caramel Corn
Caramel corn is the ultimate sweet and salty snack. Coated with brown sugar syrup and tossed with pecans and almonds, you can’t go wrong. When I was a kid, my friend’s mom would make this caramel corn for us whenever she would come to our cottage. It is the best recipe I have ever tasted,…
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…
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…
Double Chocolate Cake Pops
Pretty much any food you put on a stick is great. Candy apples, fudgesicles, and of course, cake pops. I adore cake pops because they’re bite-sized and you have endless options for decorating. This wasn’t my first time making cake pops, and I always run into a few problems, but they turned out really yummy…
