Here’s the last post of Easter sugar cookies! I wanted to do something simple, traditional, and full of nauseating pastels. I’m not usually a fan of pastel colors, but let me tell you, after enduring one of the worst winters…

Reese’s Peanut Butter Egg Cookies
Oh sweet baby Jesus, these cookies. I am usually a big fan of Reese’s peanut butter cups — but I think there is something extra magical about the egg version. It’s like the ratio of chocolate to peanut butter is…
Ducky Cookies
Aww, little duckies! These cookies work for springtime — or for a baby shower (anyone know why little ducks are always associated with baby showers? Maybe because kids love their little yellow rubber duckies at bath time? I don’t know)….
Carrot Cookies (Kind of)
Today marks the beginning of my parade of Easter treats! I have these carrot cookies, plus a few other treats to share over the next few weeks. To be honest, I hate carrots. But I love how they are associated with…
Oreo Pudding Cookies
A good indication of how delicious certain treats are is to see how many people ask you for the recipe. I brought these to school and I had quite a few people request the recipe — that’s when I knew…
Lemon White Chocolate Bars
Happy April, everyone! April is the month of springtime, Easter (usually), and my mom’s birthday. My mom’s birthday is in mid-April, but when I was home over spring break last month I made these bars for her — because there…
Bakery Review: Tamara’s Cakes
I’m reviewing Tamara’s Cakes – located in Oshkosh, WI! My hometown of Oshkosh doesn’t have many bakeries left. All of the old-fashioned bakeries (Schoenbergers!) have gone out of business and Appleton had been our next closest city for good bakery. Tamara’s…
Peanut Butter M&M Cookies
At the risk of sounding like a tween, let me just say: OMG OMG OMG OMG! These cookies were amaaaaaaaazing. I can’t even. Ahem, OK, back to adult-speak. These cookies really were fantastic. Law school has been particularly challenging this…
Banana Cupcakes
Anyone else out there love Sally’s Baking Addiction?! I certainly do! I love Sally’s recipes, photography, love of sprinkles, and her sweet personality (and Jude’s love of peanut butter). Sally’s cookbook was released earlier this month and I am obsessed…
Harry Potter Hogwarts House Tie Cookies
Raise your hand if you are Harry Potter obsessed! I am. I adore the story, the characters, the setting, and everything else about J.K. Rowling’s phenomenal imagination. And let’s be real, none of us will look at the word “Always”…
Tagalong Cupcakes
TAGALONGS! My favorite! So as I mentioned previously, the Girl Scouts set up shop at my local grocery store. On my first visit they were sold out of Tagalongs (a tragic day in my life), so I stocked up on…
Thin Mint Cupcakes
It’s Girl Scout Cookie season!! Are the girls still selling the cookies or has that ended? I bought mine (*ahem* 5 boxes *ahem*) back in February. The scouts set up shop in my local grocery store and I just couldn’t…
