Almond Poppyseed Coffee Cake

Good morning, bakers! Or good evening? Whatever time of day it is where you are I’d like to introduce you to the Almond Poppyseed Coffee Cake. Breakfast cake, snack cake, any time of the day cake; I’m here for it. I don’t know who made the rules, but somehow cake without frosting is appropriate at any time and coffee cake is truly an underrated classic.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Cake

I won’t wax poetic on the trials and tribulations of 2020, but I do want to say that due to these “unforeseen circumstances,” I’ve been baking a heck of a lot more than I did while staying keto. For better or worse, I’m enjoying more carbs and loving being able to get creative in the kitchen. And cake is comforting. Period.

Almond and Peach Layer Cake

You're a peach and I made you a cake. According to everyone in New York city, summer is almost at an end. Ever an optimist, I am convinced that summer won't actually be over until it cools down in October.

Blackberry Bay Gateau

Thin Mint Pie

This pie isn't for little girls. Grown-ups only. This is a grown person pie. A pie for grown persons to eat. There are no persons in it, because that would be gross, but there are amazing, delicious, glossy things that make this pie into a little heaven on Earth.
