It’s that time of year when my oven is working overtime, baking all the yummy treats for the holidays. And these cookies are always on the list. I am a chocolate lover, and so Crinkle Cookies have always been one of my favorites.
To make these cookies even more delicious, I add my delicious Semi Sweet Chocolate Ganache, and Candy Cane buttercream frosting. Once I have frosted the cookies, I sprinkle them with crushed candy canes.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick; 115g) unsalted butter, softened.
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar

Vanilla Berry has been and forever will be a cake classic in my mind. It is a delicious pairing of a soft and moist Vanilla Cake layer, and berry filling of your choosing.
Some of my personal favorites are: Fresh Thinly sliced strawberries and a homemade sturdy whipped cream.
(This option is very similar to a Strawberry Shortcake.)
Another favorite of mine is making a delicious berry purée, and using that to fill the layers as well as a super light Cream Cheese Frosting and Vanilla Buttercream.
The list goes on and on how you can create your perfect Vanilla Berry Cake. So today I am shar ..read more

To assemble this cake, I cut my cake layers in half, into 1” layers. I fill the cake layers with my chocolate ganache and peanut butter frosting. I continue this until I have filled all layers.
I then move on to crumb coating my cake with the extra chocolate ganache. Cover the entire surface of the cake.
After I’ve applied the crumb coat, I place the cake in the freezer for 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set up.
Once set up, I apply the peanut butter frosting in random areas of the cake, then scrape it. I then do the same with the chocolate ganache until I get my desired outcome.
After I ..read more

Cinnamon Rolls have always been a favorite of mine. I have vivid memories of walking into Cinnabon after working with my grandpa, and I remember everything about those cinnamon rolls were spot on in my mind. The smell, the size, and how soft they were.
So when I came up with this recipe, I knew that they had to be somewhat similar to those cinnamon rolls from my childhood. And while those memories with my grandpa make those cinnamon rolls good, I think these might take the cake. And that’s saying a lot! So believe me when I say, YOU NEED TO TRY THESE!!!
