Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches


I promised V these ice cream...er, frozen yogurt sandwiches as payment for a recent Friday night cat feeding. She's the bomb and just so happens to be my neighbor. I whipped up some cookies, which were chewy and oatmealy and delicious, and threw in a little frozen yogurt. Perfection.

Lime Coconut Crumbles


These lime crumbles are requested on the regular....they're a favorite for two of my best fans. The sweet coconut combines with the tart lime to create a dangerously addictive treat. Once the limes are zested and juiced, this recipe literally takes about five minutes to put together. I recommend cooling, cutting and refrigerating the bars before serving. Y.u.m.

Peeps Cupcakes


I'm pretty certain these are the cutest things I have ever made. Peeps don't actually do it for me as a treat, but they sure do sweeten up a cupcake. What better way to celebrate Easter than biting the heads off of marshmallow animals? The vanilla cake is light and delicious and I had fun using my sprinkles to decorate the white frosting. I'm a fan of the old school yellow chicks, but did branch out and used some bunnies...because I love bunnies. They're fun.

Easter Eggs!


So this isn't exactly a recipe...more like me showing off my mad skills with the dye. My good friend (see egg above and picture below) invited me over to color eggs the Friday before Easter. We had a blast, and with a little help from his sister (ok, and his mom and dad), two dozen eggs were beautified.

Hazelnut Blondies


Nutella, check. Hazelnuts, check. These blondies are moist and chewy and oh so yummy. Next time, I'll throw in a handful or two of chocolate chips for good measure.
