Reviewing Joanne Chang’s MasterClass: Bake Like a Pro
If you follow me on Instagram you will know that at the beginning of the year I started Joanne Chang’s MasterClass on baking. It took me longer than I’d hoped to finish it (mostly because I didn’t have enough people to bake for), but I am finally done and I wanted to share my thoughts!…
Simple Strawberry Compote and Homemade Pop-Tarts
You didn’t think I would forget about Valentine’s Day, did you?? Yes, it falls just after the Super Bowl this year, but for a baker Valentine’s Day is the superior event. I always make chocolate covered strawberries, because they are easy, delicious, and an all around crowd-pleaser. However, this year I wanted to play around…
Parent Trap Cookies
Heyo! So, if you follow me on Insta you know that I have been working through a baking MasterClass.

The Anatomy of A Good Cheese Board
Okay so I haven’t been baking much this month because my oven is broken and I am waiting on the replacement. As a result I have been doing more of other sorts of cooking and food photography. Last week I got to spend the afternoon with some friends and thought charcuterie would be an awesome…
Simple Sugar Decorations How-To
Okay, so a while ago I promised to share a little tutorial on how I create sugar decorations from jolly ranchers. This is a SUPER easy thing to do. It shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes or so to complete and it comes together in four easy steps that I detail below.
Uncle James’ 5 Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie
Alright so Father’s Day was a couple days ago, and I made some lemon meringue pies to celebrate (they were delicious, check out Preppy Kitchen’s blog for the recipe). However, the real show-stopping dessert was my Uncle’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie. Talk about a rich dessert, wow. This is a dessert that he learned how…
Super Simple One Bowl Brownies
Okay so a few weeks ago my mom sent me this picture of a “Secret Brownie Recipe” that my cousin and I had written down who knows how long ago. It was pretty cute and so I decided to try and recreate it. Well, it was a total flop lol. My brother called them “deep…
