When I’m craving something sweet, especially during the summer months, I typically try to reach for something a little healthier than usual. I recently discovered that I may have a slight intolerance to gluten, so I was thinking of all the wonderful uses for naturally gluten-free oats. I usually purchase a small little bag of […]
I absolutely love the nutty flavour and aroma you get from browning your butter. Browned Butter (or Beurre Noisette) imparts an extra special element to any recipe. The toasty flavour develops by essentially cooking down the butter on a medium/low heat which removes access water, and then slowly turns the milk solids brown. This completely […]
Ok, this post has been a LONG time coming. One of the first things I learned to make from scratch at home were chocolate chip cookies. I was so proud of myself, and couldn’t believe homemade cookies were so easy to make. This recipe has come quite a way since then, as I’ve had YEARS […]
This dessert reminds me of something my mother would make us when we were young. Her meringue style dessert had the addition of ground almonds I believe. It was one of my favourite desserts she ever made, the crunch of that meringue paired with the creamy cold whipped cream, and burst of sweet berries; it […]
One of the easiest and most delicious desserts you can make any time of the year, but especially now with Valentine’s Day right around the corner is Panna Cotta. I have always loved this dessert, and once I made it, I could not believe how simple it was. The best part is, it is a no bake […]
I have been making this dessert for years, and every time I bring it over to an event I always get asked for the recipe. People are always so impressed by this pie, that they don’t believe me when I tell them how easy it is to make! I finally found Key Lime’s at my […]
This recipe is very different from my usual recipes because it is VEGAN! I have a lot of respect for vegans (especially those who do it for ethical reasons) and so this recipe is for you guys! I of course am not vegan as you can probably tell from my past recipes, however I feel […]
Yes, you read that title right! These cookies are free of refined sugars and carbohydrates (and also butter)! This is quite different from the usual recipes that I share with you all because this is actually healthy! lol… No, seriously though, they say necessity is the mother of all invention and this recipe was created […]
Today (February 5th) is apparently WORLD NUTELLA DAY! Well, that had me thinking of my favourite way to eat Nutella, and that would have to be in my homemade Bomboloni, or filled Italian donuts (Canadian spelling – doughnuts). I have made this recipe quite a few times, and I feel like I have really perfected […]
A year ago I decided to share my method for making the easiest and most beautiful chocolate covered (or dipped) strawberries. It was one of the first dessert recipes I made for my YouTube channel and surprisingly the ONLY video I decided to not include a written blog post for. I figured the video was […]
