Magical Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gluten Free)
Is there anything more classic than a chocolate chip cookie? If you’ve followed my other posts, you’ll know that I’m not the biggest fan of chocolate. At least chocolate in large amounts. These magical chocolate chip cookies, have just the right amount of chocolate and…are…well…Magical. The magic in these cookies comes from three things, the moisture content, the chocolate ratio, and the oatmeal. The Moisture Content These cookies are chewy. Delectably chewy. So if you are here for a crunchy cookie, you are in the wrong place. Check out my Chai Slice and Bake Shortbread instead. The chewy texture of these cookies comes from two things, a fair amount of…

Creamy Gluten Free Chai Rice Pudding
Confession: I was never a huge fan of rice pudding as a kid. I thought it was bland, slimy, and the texture of having little chunks of rice was absolutely disgusting. But, this Gluten Free Chai Rice Pudding was a game changer for me. Rice pudding? Count me as a fan! This is technically a dessert, but would I eat it for breakfast? You bet! This pudding is super thick and custardy. If that isn’t your jam, you can always thin it out, but fret not when you’re making it–it is supposed to be that way. Why Rice? This recipe’s high starch content is what makes it so thick and…

Tangy and Delicious: Lemon Curd
Lemon curd might just be my favorite condiment of all time. The combination of tangy lemon, smooth egg yolks, and sweet sugar is a nectar of the Gods. I put that sh*t on everything. Lemon curd has really picked up in use in the United States, but curds of all flavors are most often used during tea service. So where will you most often find it? You guessed it. Around the UK and proximal parts of Europe. (Find out about the difference between afternoon tea and high tea here.) But lemon curd doesn’t have to be reserved just for tea time. There are a ton of different ways to use…

Blood Orange and Thyme Ice Cream
Ice cream. Most people consider it a summer treat. I could eat ice cream year round. Negative ten degrees outside, I’ll still eat it. Maybe that’s eccentric…but honestly, I don’t care. Ice cream is good food. Sweet, creamy, cold, it satisfies so many cravings at once. But ice cream can be boring. Chocolate, vanilla, are the classics. But if you’ve never had an ice cream that might sound a little weird, you know, like blood orange and thyme, you are seriously missing out. Flavor bombs disguised as ice cream are where it’s at! When I was little, both of my parents worked, and I spent a lot of time with…

Gluten Free S’mores Cake
Is there anything that screams summer more than a toasty, gooey s’more while sitting next to a campfire? It’s the perfect end to a summer day, and kick off to a summer night. But who says you can’t have s’mores to celebrate all year long? This Gluten Free S’mores Cake brings all those nostalgic summer flavors to the table in a whole new capacity. I mean, just look at those layers! Fun Fact: The S’more as we know them today were invented by The Girl Scouts. Back in 1927, the recipe for “some mores” was included in Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts. As both a former girl scout,…

Gluten Free Cherry Limeaide Bundt Cake
Cherry Limeaide. The first time I ever had a cherry limeaide slush was on my honeymoon in Daytona Beach, Florida. I had seen commercials for Sonic but we didn’t have any in Michigan. And Sonic’s Cherry Limeaide was iconic. It was sweet, sour, and cold. Everything you could possibly want on a 90 degree day in December in Florida. Since my initial encounter with Cherry Limeaide, Sonic’s have been popping up in Michigan, one right around the corner from my house. Yaaaaassss! And my love affair with Cherry Limeaide has continued right into this Gluten Free Cherry Limeaide Bundt Cake. About a month ago, I was crusing the aisles of…
