Recreating my favorite hot chocolate from Jacques Torres — which I used to visit in New York City with my dad for “bring-your-kid-to-work” day. This homemade hot chocolate recipe is an easy holiday drink. Add my homemade marshmallows (without corn syrup), or fresh whipped cream to a rich, decadent drink!
My first time making homemade marshmallows without corn syrup! These thick vanilla-flavored marshmallows are perfect for the holidays. Make custom shapes using holiday cookie cutters for thin or thick marshmallows. Switch the vanilla extract for almond or other flavors to compliment your holiday recipes.
The weather in New Jersey finally broke into Autumn. Evenings and mornings are crisp enough for cardigans and jeans (my favorite). With two PSL’s under my belt for the season, I decided to start my Autumn recipes, starting with these Pumpkin Spice Cookies with Cream Cheese Frosting. These cookies are easy and festive.

A day of pedicures and shopping brought my best friend and I to the Krispy Kreme store. A delicious afternoon snack which I loved, let me see inside the kitchens of a Krispy Kreme store — while trying one of their new donuts.
Also known as Mexican wedding cookies, Russian tea cakes, and snowball cookies — I tried these for the first time several years ago, and fell in love. These powdered sugar cookies are decadent! They call for one bowl and lots of butter, and are a great holiday dessert.
Creamy vanilla filling, fresh strawberries, and small little pockets — this week, I’m excited to make an on-the-go dessert. These strawberry and cream hand pies are great for a morning commute or with a cup of coffee. Customize the recipe based on your favorite flavors or try making my version!
After a long wedding weekend and a hectic Monday at work, I came home craving something sweet and warm. Inspired by Pinterest, I decided to make cinnamon knots with cream cheese icing (basically, an imperfect version of cinnamon rolls). Steaming from the oven with tangy icing, these cinnamon knots were what I needed after a long day!
