I made these blondes for a dessert to bring to my parents last weekend. I was worried these would be an epic fail as I threw them together on the spot, but they turned out great! They’re moist, dense, and slightly sweet with a wonderfully nutty flavor. Oh, did I mention these are gluten-free, oil-free,…

Toffee Zucchini Oat Squares
Going through my camera these past few days I’ve come across numerous recipes that have yet to make their way onto the blog. This is the first of many to pop up in the next few weeks. Concocted a few weeks back, after a grueling 2 hour workout at the gym and a major calorie…
Babba what??
“No, not Babba, Babka. Chocolate Babka.” I explained to my guests as they sat down for our Holiday Brunch. What is Chocolate Babka you ask?? In a word, divine!
Chocolate & Peanut Butter, together again…
I know, I know… Another chocolate peanut butter post… What can I say, we just happen to love that flavor combo. Its actually quite scary the amount of peanut butter we go through, it seems to find its way into pretty much anything…

After a series of emotional highs and lows, and discovering while unpacking the pantry that I had 36 unopened bags of…
Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti
Chocolate hazelnut biscotti have always been one of my favorites. My mom makes them every year for the holidays, so this year, I decided the holidays just wouldn’t be complete without a vegan version of these. So I made one up… Turns out, they may be even better than the original non-vegan version. Especially since…
Chocolate Chai Donuts
These donuts are quite decadent, but not unreasonably so if you leave out the glaze. The donut itself isn’t over the top in terms of sweetness but be forewarned the glaze, does tend make these quite sweet. However in my opinion, even with the glaze they’re not sweeter than your typical chocolate glazed donuts. You…
