My mom loves scones. I grew up hating them, so I always associated them with something that sophisticated moms like. I had no experience making scones, and really didn’t know what to expect. Honestly, so so easy. I made them twice in one week!
My Dad couldn’t stop eating them. My coworkers thought I had included something sinister to keep them going back for more, but what I think it is…? The browned butter that adds a caramel taste to an already delicious combination of ingredients.
Flakey. Crisp, but chewy and fudgey in the best way. Not overly sweet. Goes very well with ice cream. It’s a brownie. But it’s a cookie. I guess this just means you won’t have to cut it out of a brownie pan. Enter: The Brownie Cookie (If you think I’m gonna shorten this to brookie, you…
The woman who does my eyebrows told me about Hummingbird Cake, which means I hear about cakes in the best places. She told me it was her favorite kind of cake, and I had never heard of it. So of course I ask, and she says it has pineapple in it. Alright, I can get…
I’m a little bored of cupcakes right now. Only because I’ve gotten into a pattern of making a lot of the same recipes over and over because a) my husband likes them and b) they’re in my comfort zone. This time, I tried to get out of it. Caramel is one of those mildly temperamental…
Another recipe redo from your neighborhood bakerhi! About 3 years ago I went and found this delicious recipe and tried to incorporate some photo skills I had a quickie lesson on from a friend. Since then, I’ve actually learned how to work with the light I have and the reflector I so lovingly bought, and there’s…
There’s no easy title for these all-encompassing cupcakes. Devil’s food cake + chocolate pudding filling + marshmallow frosting + oreo crumb topping. Cakemallows makes it seems like the cakes are marshmallows, but they’re kinda fluffy cupcakes anyway.. I think this is fine. This little monster from Timid Monsters fame just wants to dive in. Let’s…
When nerdery meets baking, I am in my comfort zone. This month’s LootCrate (theme: POWER) contained not only a fantastic Thanos glove oven mitt, but a recipe for an epic chocolate muffin. One that has cayenne in it to scare the pants off of anyone who is afraid of spicy food, but really just punches…
Recipe via King Arthur Flour This past weekend was not only Mother’s Day, but the Kentucky Derby. I intend to go one of these days, but for now I still know nothing about horses and horse racing save for the fancy headwear and gambling. Seabiscuit. There – I even name dropped. What was the one…
When your sister visits, you let her pick what you’re going to make. But you really luck out when she and the husband help you measure everything out, and you don’t get anxiety about it because you trust them. I am so particular about people helping me in the kitchen, I only trust a few people,…
