When it comes to macaroons there’s a million ways to make them but it all starts with coconut. Coconut is the foundation for these tasty cookies that are a Passover staple. Most require merengue which is a hard thing to substitute because the flavor and texture is usually altered yet I found a way to completely avoid it all together! All you need is three ingredients and less than a half an hour to make these.

Read MoreFondant is a fun dessert decorating medium that can add some flair or elegance. But did you know that it doesn’t have to be bought online or in a store? Most of the ready made fondants are made in shared facilities or contain soy. Great for the non-allergy families but a big no no to us suffering from food restrictions.
Read MoreFour years ago we went to our allergist for a very simple food challenge and my Cecelia being my Cecelia things were not easy or straight forward. To put it mildly she failed that food challenge and trying another one with her allergies were not recommended. We have learned so much since that episode and because of that we are so proud to say she has not had a single episode of hives or reactions since that day.

Read MoreIf you are anything like me Fall is when apple picking is a fun family affair but I seem to go overboard every year and end up with more apples than counter space.
Read MoreHave you ever looked at a recipe and get super excited about it but then realize you’re missing one ingredient? Of course no store bought option is safe, so you have to spend twice as long researching and collecting more ingredients to make just one little part of the original recipe…

Everything looks different this year.

Read MoreWhat’s better than a cutout sugar cookie? A cute pinwheel cookie because it’s both vanilla and chocolate! It takes my simple cut out sugar cookie and adds another delicious element and design. Either way they are delicious!
Read MoreWhen I was growing up I remember always having these cake-y cookies whenever we had extended family get togethers. Usually they were held at my grandparents house on the North Shore and one of the family would pick up Black and Whites from a Jewish deli/bakery near Boston. I didn’t know they were called Black and White Cookies until after college and that they aren’t a Jewish thing but a New York staple!
Read MoreThis treat is a combo of two of my favorite desserts I have created over the years. My Cecelia named them BB Treats- Blondies and Brownies together. They are decadent and truly addicting! The only hard part about making them is waiting for them to cool while they make the whole house smell so good.
Read MoreIt has been close to two full months since we have been socially distant due to Covid-19. What do we all seek when we are stuck at home with limited activities and plans? Food of course. It makes us happy and gives us something to do until, well, the next meal comes around.
Read MoreWith this whole social distancing all I want are comfort foods or foods I grew up loving. One of those desserts is rice pudding. I don’t know about you but there is something so warm and inviting, eating something so rich and creamy.
Read MoreLinzer cookies are something that I remember eating in my grandparents’ kitchen as a child. They always seemed to have tins of cookies and Linzer cookies were one of my favorites with that delicious combo of raspberry jam and buttery cookies.
Read MoreAs we are going into our fifth week of social distancing we are starting to get into a rhythm. We have virtual schooling, messaging and video calling friends, lots of outside time when the weather is favorable. Yet our meals have been mostly normal except our poor Cecelia had a nasty accident on the school playground right before schools were shut down…
Read More“Moist” It’s pretty much a universally hated word. It brings about a visceral reaction in most people that cannot be explained. Do you know what’s worst than the word? Actual moist baked goods…
