• Hey Cutie Pie, Got plans for the first? This Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie (aka Canada Pie) is perfect for the upcoming national holiday. To my American friends, feel free to borrow it for the fourth, too!

    Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie (Canada Pie)

    Who else is ready for backyard barbecues and cold summer desserts? Last summer, when all of our family was home, my cousins and I attempted those strawberry pretzel dessert squares that have been floating around the internet, it was a total flop, but it did prompt a conversation about my cousin Laura's Chocolate Raspberry Cream Pie.

  • Just try and stop at one! Salted Cracker Candy is beyond addictive. Buttery caramel is baked into flaky saltine crackers, topped with a layer of chocolate and a generous sprinkle of sea salt, for that sweet and salty combo. It's only four ingredients that you probably already have, but heed my warning, this never lasts long.

Unless you count chocolate chips as a treat. Salted Cracker Candy is ALWAYS my go-to in a pinch. It's super easy and it is beyond good. Four ingredients to dessert dreamland.

  • Full disclosure: Almost empty cereal boxes are my pet peeve. Finding a box with crumbs at the bottom irks me, until I started making Cereal Bark and now I'm not so mad anymore! Two ingredients, chocolate chips and cereal, combine to make this easy, addictive snack.

    Cereal Bark (Two Ingredients)

    My husband is a cereal eater. Not the cereal for breakfast kind, but the any other time of day cereal eater. He prefers a bowl of cereal over ice cream at the end of the day, which suits me just fine because it means more of the frozen treat for me. He does, however, have a problem finishing a full box of cereal. Too often, I find almost empty bags, which irks me like crazy, but then I started making the leftovers into Cereal Bark and now I'm not so mad anymore.

  • I'm sure you know the theme song to Married with Children, right? Would you believe it's the inspiration for these White Chocolate Orange Muffins? I got the theme song stuck in my head and by chance changed the words "love and marriage" to orange and chocolate and knew at that moment I needed to create a recipe that combined the two. These muffins are bursting with orange flavour and just the right amount of chocolate, a must bake!

    White Chocolate Orange Muffins

    My friends, these White Chocolate Orange Muffins are delicious. You may laugh at me, but this blog post started out all backwards. You see, I normally decide what I want to create, test the recipe, photograph said recipe, write the blog post and then figure out social media. Now, in this case, it started with social media.

  • The recipe that STARTED it all! Two Ingredient Tuesdays that is. This recipe for Min-Tea Hot Chocolate is so simple. White hot chocolate mixed with peppermint tea. I like to think I'm getting all the health benefits of tea but indulging in a tasty treat. My new go-to when I want something cozy and warm.

    Min-Tea Hot Chocolate (Two Ingredient)

    So, I thought I'd share the recipe that started the whole two-ingredient Tuesdays series. My cousin, Chantelle, had actually mentioned this was her new must-have drink and as soon as she typed in the ingredients I knew I was going to love Min-Tea Hot Chocolate, too!

  • Are these A. Holiday sweets or B. everyday treats? Trick question, they're both. Perfectly nostalgic over the holidays but also have a place in the cookie jar any time of year. Peanut butter cookies get stuffed with a rich peanut butter cup (like Reese's). The combination is classic! And regardless of when you bake this easy recipe, you really can't go wrong. In fact, make them for both. Can we really ever have too much peanut butter and chocolate in our lives?

    Mini Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

    Mini Peanut Butter Cup Cookies are a total classic. A recipe that always shows up at Christmas. Not that it's only good for the holidays. It's perfect all year round, but I'm feeling very holiday-ish at the moment. I'm not sure why, but this year I am so ready for all things Christmas! It's the beginning of November and I want to put up the stockings and literally deck the halls. Does this ring any bells for you?

    Peanut Butter Pie

    The first time, I can remember having a slice of Peanut Butter Pie, I was pretty sure I had died and gone to Heaven. It is the best no bake pie in the history of pie, seriously. Years ago, I happened to pop in for a visit at my Grandma's and got invited to stay for dinner and dessert. My grandparents nephew and his wife were visiting and she had made this pie for dessert. Needless to say, I was the first to volunteer to clean the dishes, in the hopes that I could scoop out any extra crumbs.
