These graham cracker millionaire bars are one of the most recent additions to my holiday goodie trays, and one of my absolute favorites. When I was developing this recipe, millionaire bars were the current hot thing, you found them all over the internet. I knew I wanted to do...

Normally, I’m not much of a candy person. I generally think the best use of candy is to bake it into something else. Unless that candy is fudge. My love affair with fudge started at a very young age. I remember my grandmother’s old fashioned cocoa fudge she would...

Many people do Christmas (or holiday) cookie trays, and originally I did call mine that as well. But with trays that are comprised of an assortment of cookies, bars, brownies and fudges, it seemed a bit of a misnomer to call them cookie trays. As the number and variety...

I love caramel candy, but I’m not a big fan of of the stick in your teeth, hard to chew variety of caramels. Back when I first posted this recipe, there weren’t a lot of options for plain caramel candies at my local grocery store. In fact, there was...

It has been about 3 weeks since I posted a brownie recipe, quite obviously too long! In previous posts, we discussed some differences between cocoa based and melted chocolate based brownies.

I think I mentioned previously, as I work through re-posting all of the original site recipes I’m frequently taking the time to review, revise, and in many cases, re-bake the recipes. In some cases, there is more than 15 years of baking experience between the original post and now....

This cake recipe was one of two recipes I used to make my eldest son’s second birthday cake – the second was the Double Chocolate Chip Pound Cake. The two flavors together made up the base of the cake along with a salted toffee Swiss meringue buttercream. The dulce...
