I’m not sure it gets any more holiday-y (not a word, but go with it) than gingerbread, so an homage to this classic was a must this year. There’s also just something about a crinkle-top cookie that makes me feel some type of way, so these babies seriously have it all going on. I found my Chewy G...

While we might not get much actual snow here in Austin (or any), growing up in Kansas City engrained in me a deep appreciation for a white Christmas. I won’t lie, I’m not a fan of cold weather (hence the move to a place where a chilly day is a novelty), but around the holidays I’ll make an except...

Pretty sure I’m not alone when I say I miss traveling. Covid really put a damper on a few fun trips I had planned with Sam and my family this year, but if nothing else, it’s been a great lesson in learning to go with the flow, right? While I’ve done a few casual getaways here and there, Sa...

My absolute favorite treat to whip up for anyone and everyone’s birthday is my famous Birthday Cake Bliss Balls as they’re incredibly delicious and always a crowd favorite. I even have a Cooking With G and Sammy P video dedicated to this favorite recipe. But when I began thinking about my own bi...

In the midst of this quarantine and social distancing craziness, we’re all in need of a little comfort I’d say. Personally, time spent in the kitchen whipping up a nutritious and tasty meal always lifts my spirits and serves as its own form of therapy! While I know some of you feel the same, I...

If you don’t have childhood memories of eating cookie dough right from the bowl (better yet, out of the slice-and-bake tube), I’m so sorry for your loss. Truly there are few things better than that simple pleasure. And I might go out on a limb and say that cookie dough is even better than the fin...

Though I’ve been on a major matcha kick as of late, I’ll always have a serious soft spot for coffee in any form. There’s just nothing better than that very first sip after rolling out of bed. But I also love this flavor in other sweets and snacks as well, with energy balls always at the top of my...

  I feel like I say this for every recipe I create, but truly the chocolate cherry flavor combo is one of my all-time favorites. Since I was little, chocolate cherry ice cream, black forest cake, you name it, have been my JAM. So as I began to think about something Valentine’s Day-appropriate t...

Growing up, if you asked me what my favorite ice cream flavor was, the answer was without a doubt mint chocolate chip. And truthfully, nothing’s changed. I mean, how can you beat that combination?! And while these flavors in ice cream will always remain supreme (check out my Peppermint Patty No-...

I’ve always been someone who at about 3:00 is in major need of a little pick-me-up. Growing up, my mom said that I “ate like a bird,” snacking here and there, all day long. Looks like nothing’s changed! While some people can make it through on 3 meals alone, I need a little extra fuel to keep ...
