Luscious pumpkin spice muffins, with extra luxury and festivity added from seasonal pumpkin spice choco-chips! – – Are the pumpkin spice police going to come after me for posting this recipe not in the fall? I’m not sure, but I’m braving the waters to share this recipe with you! Part of the reason is that a co-worker requested these for her birthday, and the other reason is I recently found a clearance sale on the pumpkin spice choco-chips! So it’s a good time to look out for clearance sales, or keep an eye out next fall for them choco-chips! These muffins…

Tyler got these Cinnamon Bun Oreos at the grocery the other day. I was super skeptical at first, because I’m not usually a huge fan on cinnamon-flavored things. Wellllllll…collectively, we finished the entire package in two and a half days, I think. I actually enjoy these a lot. They’re not overpoweringly cinnamon, just a pleasant cinnamon cracker, and the icing just fits perfectly for the concept. So we bought another package…okay two. One to eat, and one for me to bake with! The oreos were just so good, I wanted to use them in something, and what better than a…

Yup, I said it. Apple. Pie. Moonshine. I’m putting this warning up-front and center: BE CAREFUL. THIS STUFF DOES NOT TASTE LIKE ALCOHOL. In the best way possible. It’s made with spyritus vodka, which is about the most alcoholic thing you can buy. Like period. It’s so alcoholic in fact, that you can’t buy it in VA, MD, or DC, but we had to travel up to NJ/NY area to find it. This recipe actually came from my sister’s friend Jesse, whose parents host of all of us crazy folk when we go to the PA bloomsburg fair (event review) every year! Which was perfect,…

These cinnamon puff sticks are a cute and extremely simple adornment to any dessert! For example, they make a cute addition to my previous reverse strawberry shortcake post! Or if you’re like me you’ll just want to snack on them straight out of the oven. They definitely have that extra bit of luxury when they’re warm and flaky and just–mmmm! I actually make these a lot whenever I have leftover puff pastry from other recipes, like salmon en croute (coming soon), and these are extremely similar to the churro cookies recipe I shared earlier. Just without the filling, and in stick form instead of circles!…

I know it’s only just barely fall and I feel like I’m pulling out all the fall-themed recipes already! I’m not actually doing it on purpose, I’m just enjoying the comfort food aspect of my slow cooker! And I thought these microwave cinnamon apples would pair amazingly with the crockpot chicken and stuffing recipe I posted last week (it’s a versatile recipe!), and when I didn’t have apples I was sad. So they stayed on my mind, and I made up for it by serving them with the everyday thanksgiving sandwich. A good sweet side dish, although I didn’t think to…

Let me just start this off answering the question on everyone’s mind–yes, this recipe is everything you want it to be! Another adventure stemming from my coworkers, though this time from a birthday rather than fresh-from-the-garden produce like baked jalapeño poppers. Since I like cooking and baking (whaaaat), a coworker’s birthday is always the perfect excuse to try out a new recipe! I do ask for a category or a few examples of what they like so that I have a starting place. How bad would everyone feel if I made something the birthday guy/gal didn’t like? That’s awkward for everyone. So…
