My friends, it has been far too long and for that I am sorry. As always, life has this uncanny knack for getting in the way of what you really want to be doing. But, I’m back! I’m here! I want to be back in your grills, filling your feeds with tasty treats and providing…

Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
You guys! Hey!!! Happy 2017! I know, I know…things got kind of hairy at the end there. But we’re still here, and there are still recipes that need baking. And now my watch begins… We moved! I finally have a ktichen that isn’t basically a submarine galley, and I am so…SO excited. To have enough…
Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies
Summer is upon us, blogosphere, and for poor ol’ South Florida me that means the time of 600% humidity and 24 hour rainstorms is nigh. Sadly, it is the price I must pay for living somewhere that is a literal paradise when the rest of the country is suffering through blizzards and subzero temperatures, so…
Goat Cheese Chocolate Chip Cookies
Hello there friendos! I am back from my post-wedding life getting back together-ing, ready to celebrate National Chocolate Chip day which…apparently is a thing? I have a lot of idea rolling around in this noggin of mine and I’m so excited to get back into baking regularly now that I don’t have wedding stuff to…
Chocolate Shortbread Cookies
FULL DISCLOSURE: This post will contain a lot of Jurassic Park references. Over the weekend, I experienced the crazy happy madness that is a bridal shower – specifically, my bridal shower! It was established by mmmm pretty much everyone prior to the party that a great gift idea would be baking and kitchen gadgets. They…
Lemon Shortbread Cookies with Lemon Lavender Glaze
It is with absolutely no hyperbole that I say this recipe is one of the best things I’ve ever made that wasn’t a cupcake. I got some culinary lavender in my Christmas stocking and realized I had no idea what to do with it. After some cursory Googling to find out what flavors go well…
A brief note, on the magic of Gluten-Free baking
Hello internet friends! I apologize for the radio silence as of late – as always, real life has a nasty habit of getting in the way. My workload at Real Work has tripled (tripled!) in the last week so I haven’t had as much time to be testing concoctions in the galley. Last night I…
Oatmeal Scotchies
As I write this, my entire apartment smells like baked butterscotch and warm oats. There is enough of a breeze that it’s “chilly”, which by Florida standards means “not 100% humidity/on fire”, and maybe…just maybe…if I pretend hard enough…it feels like real, actual, bona fide fall. Oatmeal Scotchies are a Wez family staple. My mom –…
Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies
There are…maybe…5? things better than a really good chocolate chip cookie. The crispy outside, gooey-ass inside, chocolate overload sensation…all crucial aspects to the full body CCC experience. Luckily for all of you fine people, I have perfected what I think is the ultimate chocolate chip cookie recipe. Now, of course, “perfect” is not the same…
Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Sea Salt Cookies
Blogosphere, what do you like to jam to when you’re in the kitchen? My go-to is always Led Zeppelin. Fiancébot can usually tell when I’m about to get down to some real business when he hears “Friends” by Zep start floating out of the kitchen. It reminds me of both my Mom and Dad, which…
Chipotle Chocolate Cookies
My goal as a baker is to provide standalone classics (just wait until I get around to making my Grama’s cheesecake recipe…so classic that both she and my mom know it from memory) and crazy twists on your average baked good. Will I attempt croissants at some point? Mais oui! Will I also be making eggnog…
Cornmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Among my top 5 things I enjoy in life, I would say snacking is pretty far up there. One of my ultimate favorite snacks is a perfect chocolate chip cookie – chewy on the inside, crispy edges, chocolate on chocolate on chocolate. But…what if I could make them even more amazing? Enter tonight’s star –…
