The ice cream in the above photo is the “Kiddie” size at King’s Trading Post Party Store. It’s got like three scoops of ice cream in it. Welcome to the midwest, everyone.
You can’t tell from the pic but it’s topped with chocolate ice cream and the bottom is peanut butter. The consensus was that the […]

This is more of an idea than a recipe since there are no exact amounts given. And rather than write it out like usual, I decided to make a cartoon. This idea is based on a recipe for Amaretti Ice Cream Balls by Rachel Ray. If I were you, I’d make it with Nigella’s Chocolate […]

I had a little bit of time to kill before work the other day and browsed the cooking magazines for something to keep myself busy. Nothing jumped out because all of the covers kind of looked the same. Every magazine boasted either it’s best grilling recipes or photos of gigantic burgers.

Rather than making you read over the weekend here’s a clip for you to watch from Rachel Ray’s daytime show where she demonstrates how to make two dessert sauces from the bottom of the peanut butter jar. The two sauces are a Peanut Butter Chocolate Sauce and Peanut Butter Caramel Sauce.

We […]

I’m feeling indulgent today. :)
Mostly I love shakes because they’re so easy. It doesn’t really matter what you have in your kitchen - ice cream, frozen yogurt, regular yogurt, chocolate milk, regular milk, ice… as long as you’re creative you can make something yummy.
If you’re tired of the same old icy drink, treat yourself […]

Happy Hump Day!
I don’t know about you, but Wednesday is always a bit of a tough day, especially around early afternoon. You’re only halfway through the week and halfway between lunch and dinner. You’re feeling anxious and your tummy is growling. What better way to get through it than with something sweet? And I’m not […]
