Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Cake

Crushing this holiday season with a new Starbucks holiday drink flavor: Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Cake. You’re welcome!

What is Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Cake?

Glad you asked. I always liked chocolate and peppermint together but I never was a fan of mochas, so peppermint mochas weren’t my thing. BUT, Starbucks came out with a WHITE CHOCOLATE version and it is amazing! So…

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Helllooooo lovebugs! It’s day 11 out of 12 days of cookies and since life is busy and I have a newborn in the house, I reshot and updated these peanut butter chocolate chip cookies instead of coming up with a whole new recipe.

Is that considered cheating? I think not…You all didn’t even know this recipe existed before this so you can consider it new! Plus, it’s really hard to be mad at…

Homemade Dark Hot Chocolate

Homemade Dark Hot Chocolate

Ok friends. Going to start off with a bit of truth… I’m exhausted and I tried to bribe my husband to write this blog post but he denied. I’m obviously excited about this homemade dark hot chocolate but I’ve just been a little too busy. I get super antsy when I know I have a lot of work to do and I’m just sitting on the couch trying to write…on top of that you can’t even write just what you want…

Chai White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chai White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Friends! I’m so excited to FINALLY share this recipe with you all! I made these chai white chocolate chip cookies back in August. I started preparing all of my fall/winter content before I had Beckham to take some stress off my mind during life with a newborn. I’m so glad I did that because I ate like 10 of these with the excuse of “I’m pregnant”. If I had made them now I would’ve had to control…

Maple Spice Cake with Maple Frosting

What's more seasonal than a spice cake? The best maple spice cake with maple cream cheese frosting will give you all the warm fall feels you're looking for!

Three words for ya. Maple Spice Cake. I’d like to say that this cake is nostalgic with all it’s glorious spices & vastly underrated maple flavor, however, this is not what I had growing up…so it’s really just bind blowing for me instead of nostalgic. I never really ate anything maple flavored, the only thing that comes to mind is putting maple syrup on my pancakes. & spice cake?! The only spice I…
