White Chocolate Cheesecake with Peppermint Ganache
Do you know what I just realized? Two years ago, I made my first pound cake, and this blog had just started days before. It is amazing how far I’ve come since then… I’ve hit my 100th post (and celebrated on the 101st), and my confidence in my own baking ability has improved by leaps and […]
To-Die-For Chocolate Cake
Look, let’s cut to the chase. This is a flour-less chocolate cake that got me an actual standing ovation when I made it last weekend. I’m posting it now so you have time to change all your Thanksgiving dessert plans and make this instead. I will be making it again myself on Thursday, of that […]
Action-Packed Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies
Yes, that title is setting a pretty high standard for a cookie – but these are Pumpkin Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies! They’re jam-packed with all the fall flavoring and action you can possibly handle. And yes, you would be correct in assuming that these cookies are as yummy as they sound! The back story […]
The White Lime Experience
This month’s Mystery Box Ingredient was white chocolate. “Well,” I thought, “surely I can make something with that.” And then I thought “stop calling yourself Shirley.” (Fun fact – I have a bowling shirt with the name Shirley embroidered on it. Just ‘cuz.) One of my favorite combos is white chocolate and lime because the […]
White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies

I didn’t have a specific recipe in mind, so originally I was going to just use a chocolate chip cookie recipe and sub in the white chocolate and macadamia […]
Caramel Cupcakes, part 2 (the fun part)
It’s time to prettify your cupcakes! This part was insanely fun for me, probably because I got carried away with the decorating process. A lot went into these puppies! The first thing I did here was make the little chocolate decorations for the top. I used vanilla candy melts, but you could use whatever you […]
Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookie Bars
As promised, these puppies were the third variety of cookie I made for my east coast pals, and the rest went with me as bars to work. Unfortunately, because I didn’t think they’d travel well, I only sent them plain oatmeal cookies. (Sorry Fiona!) The bars were something I hadn’t tried before, and I made […]
Cookie Season
There are a lot of birthdays and holiday parties around this time of year, and since I’m not a big drinker I’d much rather bring cookies than alcohol for people to consume. I get a little carried away when baking, I like variety, so I usually end up making more than one kind of cookie. […]
