This recipe was inspired by the cream cheese half of my Red Velvet Fudge. Every time I make my red velvet fudge, I can’t help but think how much I really enjoy the cream cheese portion of the fudge. Sometimes, I will actually hunt for pieces that have a...

Apple desserts are far and away my favorite fruit based desserts. Apple pie is pretty much the only fruit based pie I will eat (willingly and happily) and the only one I make somewhat regularly. I like apples on top of cheesecakes, waffles, vanilla or caramel ice cream and...

This recipe for White Chocolate Cranberry Pecan Tea Cookies is another of my earliest recipes for my holiday goodie trays having made an appearance for about 13 years now. While I would love to give credit to an original source for the recipe, I honestly don’t recall where I...

Moving from one Dorie Greenspan recipe to the next, this recipe for World Peace Cookies, like the Dulce de Leche Duos, made its way onto my holiday baking rotation after baking it with the Tuesday’s With Dorie group. These are a sablé or shortbread style cookie, which isn’t typically...

A couple weeks ago, I mentioned my grandmother’s old fashioned fudge (which she made for so many occasions throughout my childhood) as one of my earliest introductions to fudge. I’m sure no one is surprised to learn that it also has a place on my holiday goodie trays. I’m...

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...
