You had me at hello. I mean, chocolate. You had me at chocolate. Then you really had me at Double Chocolate. I'm still debating with myself whether to call these breakfast or snack or dessert. Maybe I should just call them all three. Maybe a weekend breakfast, an afternoon snack and a late night treat. Whenever you want to serve them, just serve them. I won't … [Read more...]
Chocolate Cookie Dough Bites
Oh sweet baby goodness. If I could share these through the screen, I would! Bite, bite, bite. All it takes is 3 bites to polish one of these babies off. Maybe 2 bites. These cookie dough bites are eggless, they can be made gluten-free (subbing 1-1 with GF flour blend), and dairy-free if you use a dairy-free margarine. I'm all about the versatile and these are versatile … [Read more...]
No Bake Gluten Free Coconut Lemon Tarts
Did someone say 'no-bake dessert'??? Why yes, yes I did! We've already had a couple of 'those' days here in San Antonio. The days that make you long for summer...and kinda dread it at the same time. The days where it tops out at a 'dry' 85 degrees and you feel like you're melting. Those first really hot days of the spring that send you running outdoors to play baseball in … [Read more...]
Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal
I think we should call this one 'break-ssert' because it's part breakfast, part dessert. I've been dying to share this for a few weeks...I let the $5 Meal Plan members have a sneak peek. And here it finally is! This baked oatmeal is crazy-ridiculously delicious. It's more of a dessert really. Or a weekend breakfast...perhaps a breakfast before a morning of basketball games … [Read more...]
Thin Mint Brownies
Alright. I totally wasn't anticipating to find Girl Scout cookies until later this month or early next month. But I found some in a 'drive through' situation (FTW!)...and bought some. And then promptly ate them. But while I wait for my beloved Thin Mints, I can always count on these brownies. It's a few simple additions to any brownie batter that really matters! I prefer … [Read more...]
Oatmeal Cinnamon Chip Cookies
Yup, yup. This is a super basic Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, with the chocolate chips swapped out for cinnamon chips, plus the addition of a secret spice. Two weeks ago, I snatched a couple bags from the store to try in a new recipe and ended up with some extra cinnamon chips so I made these amazing cookies. These might become 'our family cookie'... One kid likes … [Read more...]
Chocolate Lava Popcorn
This stuff will knock your socks off. We love making popcorn in the air popper. Just the other day, the kids figured out that they could put the popped popcorn back into popper and it will fly everywhere when they plug it back in! (Yes, I was watching...and was curious as to what they were up to and closely supervised the entire event. I had just popped some popcorn and … [Read more...]
Sourdough Chocolate Muffins
Chocolate + Muffin in the same recipe title. OH YEAH BABY! These are perfectly moist, delicious and sweet with a simple powdered sugar topping and a side of fresh fruit. (Because the fresh fruit accompaniment means that we can have more chocolate, right? right? right?) Bake them up, dust them with a little powdered sugar, toss a couple berries onto the plate and you are … [Read more...]

Pineapple Cupcakes with Ginger Lime Frosting
You're going to see a number of pineapple recipes in the coming weeks, as I scored a few couple of cans of pineapple in 100% juice on clearance at Target. I do my best to avoid Target and the 'inevitable $100 tag' that seems to happen whenever I walk in there. But I will go in for special deals (like the Huggies diaper deal this past week (sale price &$2 off coupons & … [Read more...]
