Blue Cheese Coleslaw
So a couple of years ago, I was looking for something lower carb to bring to a BBQ. I came across this recipe and decided to make it, since my husband and I both love blue cheese. Well, it quickly became a favorite that summer and we ended up making it ALL the time. And…
Dark Chocolate Stout Cupcakes with Vanilla Bean Buttercream Frosting
I made this cupcake as a thank you to a very good friend (who then later become the love of my life) for saving my servers. I’m a huge fan of cupcakes with booze and this one used Guinness excellently! You could really taste the richness of the stout. For the life of me, I…
Maple Bacon Cupcakes
Everything’s better with bacon, right?! These really proved that it is! There’s even bacon in the batter, and a piece of brown-sugar candied bacon on top. Yum! The cupcakes are from Bacon Today and the candied bacon is courtesy of Alex Guarnaschelli. Maple Bacon Cupcakes Ingredients 4 1/2 tablespoons butter, room temperature 1/2 tablespoon bacon drippings (left in…
Pink Champagne Cupcakes
I made these for my birthday one year and they quickly become a favorite. The frosting has been described as light and fluffy, almost like whipped cream. And, well, they’re…PINK! How can you go wrong? 😉 The recipe isn’t mind originally but I can’t find the original, only others who have done the same as…

Spiced Apple Cupcakes with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting
Absolutely loved these cupcakes. I love anything with fall spices and these give off a warm and rich scent as they bake. And the boiled cider is just to die for! Next time, I think I’ll use it as an additional garnish by drizzling a little over the top of the frosting. Recipe is from Tracey’s…
Devil Cupcakes
I found the idea for these on Facebook and made them a couple of years ago for my fiancee as a birthday present. They are sinfully rich. We took the leftovers to work (you really can’t have too many of them and you kinda need a tall glass of milk to wash them down with!)…
Chocolate Pumpkin Cake
While my cake came out looking not so hot thanks to not enough orange gel AND the fact that I only had 10-inch cake pans at the time (instead of the 8-inch that was listed in the recipe), it still tasted absolutely scrumptious. Recipe from the Little Epicurian. Recipe adapted from Country Living Makes 2- 8…
Roasted Butternut Squash Polenta with Fried Sage
I found this on Laura’s Best Recipes and since I love both butternut squash AND polenta, I decided to give it a try. Boy, she wasn’t kidding. It’s been a tradition on Thanksgiving ever since! Please note, I’ve used the image from her site because I don’t have a decent picture of this. That will be remedied…
