February 8, 2017

These fudgy brownie heart cupcakes are delicious and are a perfect dessert for V-day. Roaming around Pinterest last week, I stumbled upon The Baker Chick’s blog…

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

December 14, 2016

I love peanut butter. There are a few flavors I could live without, and peanut butter is one of them. If I ever develop a peanut allergy, I think my world would collapse. These peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are perfect for all of my peanut butter lovers out there. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are one of my favorite lunches to date. One day, when I’m running a global company,…

Cookie Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

December 12, 2016

Nutella is to Fatima as cookie butter is to me. I was introduced to cookie a few years ago when my coworker gave me a jar of it around the holidays. Fantastically delicious was the only phrase I could think of. I hadn’t had anything like it! It was as if someone took the heart of a cookie, melted it, and put it in a jar. We wanted to venture into cookie…

Sweet and Savory Sweet Potato Pastries

October 5, 2016

Fall is our favorite season. Growing up in New England, I loved experiencing the changes in the leaves, the crunch they make when you step on them, and the cool, crisp air. My family’s annual Halloween Party this year is Harry Potter-themed. It has been so much fun to plan. I think it will be our most Pinteresting Halloween Party, yet! We wanted to experiment with some of the internet’s greatest…

Mint Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Waffle Sandwiches

September 1, 2016

It’s what unicorn dreams are made of. Last week, we showed you how we stayed cool with our homemade cold brew. Last weekend we cooled off with some margaritas at our favorite brunch spot and made some ice cream. These mint cookies and cream ice cream waffle sandwiches were delicious. We’ve wanted to make mint ice cream for a while. If it wasn’t for the mint Oreos on sale at Target, we wouldn’t have made…

We’re Celebrating Our Blogiversary!

July 6, 2016

Today, our baby turns five years old so we’re celebrating! Yes, our blog baby and we’re celebrating our blogiversary! Looking back at some of our first posts, we’ve come a long way – in both recipes and photos. In 2011, we started sharing our food adventures on my personal Tumblr page as new Hofstra University alumni. We wanted to share easy, savory recipes for college students and young professionals who were on a budget. Shortly after…

Mrs. Fields Knockoff Chocolate Chip Cookies

April 13, 2016

I’m the human version of Cookie Monster. As a chocolate chip cookie snob, I’m always seeking out a delicious chocolate chip cookie recipe. Nuts? Fruit? NO WAY! Sorry, I can’t stand them in any cookie. I’m dubbing these as the ‘Mrs. Fields Knockoff Chocolate Chip Cookies’ recipe. A few weeks ago, we made them and they were fantastic. They were so good that we didn’t leave any behind for a…

Chocolate Covered Pretzels

February 11, 2016

Who doesn’t love pretzels, chocolate, peanut butter cups, or Oreos? How about a combination of everything? Chocolate covered pretzels are an easy snack you could whip up in 20 minutes for your friends and significant others this weekend. You just need pretzels, chocolate, and your favorite toppings. My wife’s favorite flavor is vanilla – surprise, surprise 😉 and she loves anything made with white chocolate and cookies & cream. So naturally,…

Sweet and Savory Pretzel Bites

My uncle made these a few Christmases ago and we made them last year for my family’s annual trip to NYC. These are probably the easiest snacks you’ll make this holiday season. And why not? They’re delicious. These sweet and savory pretzel bites are a perfect combination of salt and sweet chocolate. It’s like a party in your mouth. Yes, those are our Instagram Coasters in the background. They make…

Peanut Butter Monster Eye Cookies

October 28, 2015

I love adding a little spook to food around Halloween. This year, among many other delicious dishes, we made these peanut butter monster eye cookies. Aren’t they cute? These are so easy to make and don’t require anything special other than these candy monster eyes (found at Michaels). If you’re familiar with peanut butter blossoms, then you’ll know exactly how to make these cookies. Basically, you push the Hershey kisses…

Mini Candy Apple Fail

October 12, 2015

Oh Pinterest, you pain me sometimes. While we don’t have many cooking fails, when we do, they are complete utter failures. It took us a few tries, but we finally got these chocolate chip cookies to be thick and chewy. When putting together our fall food preview party, we wanted to try to make mini candy apples. We saw a lot of failures, but also other food blogs who seemingly made it work. While…

Apple Cider Donuts

October 7, 2015

Fall has arrived! Time to eat everything with pumpkin and apple spice. Brian is working hard with MBA classes so we decided to make most of our fall blogging over the course of one weekend. To get rid of all the food we made, we enlisted some of our closest friends to come over and eat our Apple Cider Donuts. I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of food…

Pumpkin Coffee Cake Donuts

October 5, 2015

What’s better than a warm, fresh donut with your coffee? That donut being pumpkin flavored. But what’s better than that? Pumpkin coffee cake donuts! Call us #basic, but we love pumpkin. I look forward to fall every year just for Dunkin Donuts’ pumpkin glazed donuts. When thinking about what to make this season, we stumbled upon Delightful E Made’s pumpkin coffee cake donuts. Don’t they look delicious!? Whip them up yourself,…
