During this time of year (my favorite of all) there are some of the best desserts made in households across America: pumpkin pie and pecan pie. At Christmas Dinner there are so many desserts that even though you want to try a slice of all of them you don’t have enough room, which got me…
Cozy Eggnog Latte
Happy Holidays! It seems like it would be much simpler to just go to Starbucks for a coffee rather than making one of their “fancy” drinks yourself… but you’re spending $5 on something you could make better at home in 10 minutes. Treat yourself to staying in this time and making your own sweet coffee…
Best Blueberry Muffins Ever
These muffins have been certified “the best I’ve ever tasted” by everyone who tried them, and the secret is in the fresh blueberries. Using fresh ingredients is the key to the most delicious desserts and these muffins are one of the best things I’ve ever made. The great thing about muffins is that they’re hassle-free;…
Apple Blossom Pie
When life gives you apples, make apple pie! I had an abundance of apples and they were begging to be baked into a dessert, but in the summer time I don’t really want to eat a classic apple pie warmed and served a la mode. This pie is the perfect balance between a no-bake dessert…

This recipe isn’t labeled “chocolate chip cookies” for a reason; you can substitute any chip and it will still be delicious. Milk, white, or dark chocolate,…

Even when travelling to the Florida Keys, the birthplace of this pie, you may find that the key lime pies lack lime flavor and creaminess. Some might even be DYED green! Many restaurant suppliers have developed…
Italian Wedding Cupcakes
What is more lovely than a wedding dessert? One of my most popular cakes is my Italian Wedding Cake because of it’s lightness and perfect balance of flavors, and it’s recipe inspired these cupcakes! The rum-soaked pecan filling that usually goes in the middle layer of the cake is in the center of each cupcake….
Banana Mango Smoothie
This smoothie is so refreshing, light, and most importantly, HEALTHY! With only a few ingredients you can make a decadent smoothie for breakfast in under 15 minutes. I recommend using bananas that are turning brown. Use up the ones that no one wants to eat AND get some extra sweetness, because this recipe doesn’t have…
