Chocolate and Caramel Ice Cream Parfait
Chocolate and Caramel Ice Cream Parfaits are the perfect summer dessert! As good as they look...they taste better! Raise your hand if you're bored of cheesecake discussion? Nooo! I don't know if we can be friends if you ever get bored of cheesecake! Sorry folks, that was a trick question.

Hot Gooey Caramel Pie
Hot Gooey Caramel Pie is as delicious as it sounds, with very little prep time! So it started one night when I was going to take a brownie mix I had in the pantry and bake it into a graham cracker pie crust. But then I couldn't find the brownie mix I thought I had. So plan B was a cheesecake baked in a graham cracker crust. But then plan C formed in my head. What if I baked blondies into a graham cracker crust? Then my 4th and final plan formed. What if I kinda combined plan B and plan C? So I pulled out the mixer and made the first batch of this. I didn't even know what to expect out of this, it was simply a late night whim. I didn't even measure! But then it was awesome. And everyone … [Read more...]
Baked Apple Pie Wontons with Caramel Dipping Sauce
These apple pie wontons are crispy on the outside, but soft, hot and cinnamony on the inside. Best of all? They're baked, not fried! I know I've been a bit heavy on the desserts here lately. I have an excuse though. Not a good one, but an excuse nonetheless. I've been working really hard on my holiday desserts for my magazine column. Seriously, really hard. You'll start to see the results soon, but stay tuned, because there's a second feature of mine coming up after the first! Anyway, baking up a holiday storm for weeks on end doesn't leave all that much room for cooking. Hence, no real food recipes. I do have some new ones coming up soon though, so stay tuned. In the meantime, I … [Read more...]
