Gluten-Free Hazelnut Chocolate Chunk Bars

Thumbnail image for Gluten-Free Hazelnut Chocolate Chunk Bars

I was cruising around on TheKitchn the other day when I came across a post about making a giant cookie in a cast iron skillet. How could I pass up a recipe like that!

Maggie at She Let Them Eat Cake is hosting Go Ahead Honey, It’s Gluten-Free this month. She chose Springtime Brunches as the theme. At first I was a little stumped.  But after some thought, I remembered an avocado pie that I made for my sister-in-law’s wedding shower. The bright green color screams spring to me. [...]

Three of my coworkers had birthdays this week. I was asked to make a cake. I laughed a little on the inside. I think the last time I attempted a “real” cake was sometime in high school. I don’t even own cake pans. I said I could do cupcakes. When I asked if there were [...]

I always meant to post a recipe, but sometimes you just want to drink the hot cocoa instead of taking pictures while it goes cold. [...]

This recipe can also be altered by adding dried cranberries in place of the chocolate chips. 1 3/4 cups Pamela’s [...]
