Today’s post is dedicated to Susan, a chocolate peanut butter loving friend!
Okay, I’m taking a short break from all this product and restaurant reviewing to bring you a tasty cookie recipe. I constantly bookmark recipes for chocolate and peanut butter desserts and it’s rare, but once in a while I actually remember to check in […]

We’ve explored some fancy shmancy cupcakes the last couple days, so I think it’s time to go back to basics. When you’re on a road trip, you may have destinations that will bring to you luxurious gourmet desserts, but along the way, a craving can hit, and the most convenient place to stop is generally […]

The incredible Vegan Peanut Butter Cupcake posted above is from The Bleeding Heart Bakery in Chicago (from flickr user The Bleeding Heart Bakery). Drooling yet?
Taste Tester and I were only in Chicago for two days, and since we bought over a dozen cupcakes on our visit to Molly’s Cupcakes we didn’t get around to visiting […]

Hi people! I missed you during vacation, but I’m back to share some fun chocolate and peanut butter adventures from my road trip to Michigan and Illinois.
Taste Tester, Taste Tester’s brother, and Jackie Brown (our Chocolate Labrador) and I drove from New Jersey to the Canadian Lakes in Stanwood Michigan, stopping in Ann Arbor on […]

So remember yesterday when I said I was going away for a little while? Well… I wasn’t kidding actually. Though I’m going on vacation, I will be posting when I’m able to, and well… I’m able to (at least today). And these photos found on flickr were just too crazy not to share.

The best cupcake is NOT in NYC.
It’s in Florida. At a chain called Misha’s […]

The above cookie is from Columbine in NYC.
This picture found on flickr kind of made me re-realize how much I love cookies. I think cookies are the sweet treat I crave the most. And this one looks just about my speed - lots of chips, some nuts thrown in… it’s hard to tell from the […]

Tastespotting is back up and running!
For those of you that are unfamiliar with Tastespotting, it is a collection of user submitted food photos that link to blogs and recipes. It’s updated constantly with amazing creations, so naturally the entire food blog community was experiencing some serious withdrawal when it disappeared due to legal issues.
So […]

Ah, summer… try as you will to make it as hot and unbearable in my kitchen as you can, your efforts are futile. I have defeated your forces once again and prevailed to share a delicious snack with the world.
A little dramatic? Yes, but I’m on a sugar buzz, so cut me some slack.
This recipe […]
