Golden Grahams S’mores Bars

May 21, 2012

Golden Grahams S’mores Bars

I have a farmer friend.

His name is Tyler.

Our visit to his farm revealed a few things:

Farms are pretty.
Don’t wear sandals on the farm.
Fainting goats are so weird but hilariously cute.
I will have a piglet for a pet someday.
Tyler cooks.

Healthy Double Chocolate Malt

May 18, 2012

malt2

I hope our new apartment comes with a blender because I plan to make these ultra thick and creamy healthy double chocolate malts every morning in the Philippines. Chocolate for breakfast yo.

I’ve gotta be honest with you guys.

Searching for a home abroad (when you’re not physically abroad yet) can be a little weird. Think House Hunters International, via the internet, with more marital stress and less money. I mean, I was fully committed to at least three different places all within the same hour and when I changed my mind for the 4th time, Bjork went for a drive to McDonald’s. At least we have some stress management tactics.

Chocolate PB Banana Upside Down Cake

May 14, 2012

cake1

This morning I melted butter, vanilla, and brown sugar into a sauce and pretended like it didn’t have full control of my life.

But it was a lost cause and I hereby surrender myself to the butter, vanilla, and brown sugar sauce. And as I’m typing this I’m seeing an ad on my sidebar showing an Under Armour girl doing a yoga and a head stand. I’m sorry for false advertising. I am not doing yoga and headstands today. I am eating this sauce.

This cake is so good.

Salted Double Chocolate Muffins

April 11, 2012

chocolatemuffin

Sometimes I get to the end of the day and realize that I didn’t eat ANY vegetables all day. Like, zero. Usually it’s a Monday and it’s the day after Easter.

Wait, are there vegetables in teriyaki buffalo chicken wings?

No? No.

White Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies

brownies

I don’t mean to brag, but I just ate an extra marshmallowy bowl of Marshmallow Mateys for dinner.

And by a bowl, I mean a box.

And by Marshmallow Matey’s, I do not mean Lucky Charms. Seriously? I’m not even going to defend that.

Peanut Butter S’mores Bars

Peanut Butter S'mores Bars

Sometimes I just can’t stop thinking about dessert. Sometimes, as in 365 days a year.

I don’t stand a chance focusing on an-ee-thing for one second when I have images of buttery graham cracker cookie dough layered with chocolate, peanut butter, and marshmallow cream running through my brain. And drool running down my chin. And legit chocolate stains on my white spring jacket. Hmph. So much for being fresh and cute.

We need to talk.

I’ve just eaten my third half of a French Silk Brownie Pie and my happies are running on overdrive. What are those called again? Endorphins? Melatonin? Melanoma?

Just know this: PURE CHOCOLATE is running through my veins and it’s the best thing that’s happened to me, ever. Weeee!

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Healthy Cookie Dough

March 5, 2012

Cookie Dough

Today I found out that Johnnie from AT&T is my iPhone guardian angel.

The discovery all started with my annual swimsuit purchase from Marshall’s. I don’t know what that says about me, because:

Marshall’s swimsuits have the potential to fit awkwardly,
I certainly don’t need a swimsuit every year,
I certainly don’t need a swimsuit this year because we’re not going on vacation.

Alright everyone, gather ’round.

In honor of March arriving so suddenly and catching everyone by surprise (truth be told, I thought leap day was yesterday) (I mean leap year) (whatever), all that to say – I’d like you to meet someone.

This is the Donut Ball.

There used to be a pan of this Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake in my kitchen yesterday.

That was yesterday.

{Lazy} Chocolate Cherry Fudge Cake

A chocolate cherry fudge cake bombed my house today.

That’s why I’m covered in the world’s most luscious chocolate frosting. I swear it’s not because I stuck my whole body in the pan. I swear.

Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

Carrot Cake Cupcakes

I am dying over here.

First of all, these extremely moist, sweet, and perfectly dense cupcakes are killing me softly with each bite and it hurts so good. This recipe comes from a neighbor in my hometown {hi, Pam!} and it is seriously the BEST carrot cake I’ve evereverever had.
