As a Millennial, it's my job to remind you that things were definitely better in the 90s...from the music to the clothes to the solar system (we'll never forget you, Pluto)..but oh my, the food...I could write a novel about my love of 90s food: OG Pizza Hut with the salad bar (those red cups!),… Continue reading Cosmic Brownie Mini Cheesecakes
I could never desert my love of dessert, or the desert for that matter...isn't English fun? I am simply obsessed with all things prickly pear-flavored, including beer (miss that, dang you gluten), prickly pear margs (literally life changing), and now, cupcakes. I'm not sure why it took me so long to try prickly pear syrup… Continue reading Prickly Pear Cupcakes with Piping Tutorial

Specifically, one made with buttery graham cracker crust, silky chocolate filling, and toasty marshmallows on top. I may hate summer, but I can… Continue reading S’mores Pie
These un-peel-ievable floral cupcakes are mimosa-flavored with a mimosa buttercream frosting, and they are the best thing to happen to mimosas since, well, the first person decided they wanted champagne for breakfast without judgment, so they splashed a little OJ into the glass, too. I hadn't piped a floral design in ages, and my allergies… Continue reading Mimosa Cupcakes with Floral Piping Tutorials
Feeling blue? Nothing a little cheesecake can't fix! I ordered some blue spirulina powder to put into my protein smoothie bowls (find them + dozens of other protein smoothie bowl recipes on my Instagram), but I wanted to see if I could bake with the powder since it turns things the most b-e-a-utiful shade of… Continue reading Blue Spirulina Mini Cheesecakes
March is hogging all the holidays in a manner that would make Rich Uncle Pennybags from Monopoly proud, so sharp shifting of gears from all things green to all things yellow and pastel for Easter here on the blog. I've been known to indulge in the occasional Peep or multiple handfuls of Cadbury mini eggs… Continue reading Peepin’ It Real
