Day of the Dead Cookies
Most Americans celebrate Halloween but are unaware of another interesting holiday: the Day of the Dead (Dia de Los Muertos, if you know Spanish). The Day of the Dead is celebrated primarily in Mexico, but extends throughout the world. Family…
Pumpkin Pi Cookies
Halloween is 1 week away! Also, I want to say hi to Linzy! Thanks for reading my blog as much as you do – and I love that you and your Dad enjoy baking together. I got my love of…
Candy Corn Cookie Cake
Candy corn is one of those polarizing candies – you either love it or hate it. I love it… for about 5 minutes. Then I want nothing to do with it until next Halloween. But just about anything having to…
Monster Cupcakes

I started law school this fall which means that I don’t have nearly as much time to devote to baking as I once did (cause you guys, law school is i-n-t-e-n-s-e). But I have planned out a few things for…
Sugar Cookie Bars
Sugar cookies are great. But you know what’s not-so-great? Having to roll out the dough… cut out shapes… bake the cookies… roll out the remaining dough… cut out more shapes… bake more cookies… repeat… repeat. Sometimes you just want something…
Confetti Compost Cookies
I’m always slightly skeptical of “garbage” cookies – the oddly-named cookie that includes everything under the sun. There are a million different variations of the garbage cookie and you can throw just about anything into the mix – chocolate, nuts,…
