Whipped Cream

Happy National Whipped Cream Day! Whipped cream is actually pretty simple to make. Wanna see? First, you need heavy cream… with your whisk attachment, you whip it until soft peaks start to form… then add sifted powdered sugar with a teaspoon of your favorite flavoring or extract until stiff peaks form. Voilà! Whipped Cream! Just make sure not [...]

Ice Cream

I know y’all probably think I’m crazy bringing you an ice cream post in December, but we celebrated my little munchkin‘s 2nd birthday this weekend. We can’t have a custard-based ice cream because of her food allergies, so I made my own this year. It’s super easy and only takes 5 minutes….BERRY QUICK Ice Cream. [...]

This week my ebook was released! Woohoo! So, for the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing recipes that work great for a Cookie Exchange.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of NECTRESSE™Sweetener. All opinions are 100% mine. If you have been a reader for a while, you have probably noticed that I CRAVE all things sugar, but I also know it’s important to eat sugar in moderation.

Cheddar Bunny Carrots

I just had to share this with y’all! We made these for my daughter’s Easter party at preschool, and they are so easy and cute!

Easter Nest Thumbnail

One of my favorite Easter traditions when I was little was when the Easter Bunny would lead us on a treasure hunt for our candy-and-present-filled Easter basket with rhyming clues to help us find the way.  Just when we thought we’d almost found our basket, our next clue would lead us in another direction. We definitely worked [...]

Chocolate Cream Pie

The Marble Pound Cake brought back memories of Sunday dinners at MawMaw’s house, and this recipe is another one of those delicious desserts. My Aunt Pat made it for us. At least, she claims she made it even though it usually arrived in a Winn Dixie pie box, so I don’t know for sure. (Just kidding Aunt Pat…hehehe.) It’s creamy, chocolatey [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookies and Cream Trifles

July 3, 2011

I HATE hard, crunchy cookies! HATE them! I prefer the hot. gooey. half-way not-done. soft-centered chocolate chip cookie. Who wants to bite down and almost break your tooth on some hard cookie? NOT ME! Yesterday, I made some chocolate chip cookies and burned baked one pan of them too long.  I ended up with too-hard-to-eat [...]
