Alana This post is unfortunately very late! Before winter semester ended (in April), my friend Theresa suggested we have a bake day before our mental health semester started (at the beginning of May). I don’t remember why, but we ended up making scones. No regrets at all! I was going on a snowboarding trip the … More Blackberry White Chocolate & Orange Chocolate Scones
Roopa My good friends Marcus and Michelle got engaged this month, so obviously a cake was in order. They both LOVE Nutella so it needed that, but I also wanted to incorporate M&Ms (their names both start with M, so M and M…hahaha I’m so clever…). Since it was for an engagement, I also wanted … More Nutella Engagement Cake
Alana In honour of Father’s Day this year, I decided to put my moustache cookie cutters to good use and whip up some sugar cookies for my Dad. Because they’re moustaches, it just makes sense to add some cocoa to make them chocolate (especially since my Dad has brown hair). I got these cookie cutters … More Chocolate Moustache Sugar Cookies (Happy Father’s Day!)
CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES WITH WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING. Roopa I made a batch of these and covered them in whipped cream and raspberries. Simple, but delicious. I always add vanilla and a little bit of granulated sugar to my whipped cream, which I think makes a big difference.
Roopa I didn’t love the last peanut butter cookie I made, so I decided to try again and adjust a couple of things. I added chocolate chips in lieu of cocoa – I wanted this to be a dominantly peanut butter cookie, so I didn’t want to overdo the chocolate. I think they turned out quite … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Alana As mentioned in Roopa’s post about the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Sandwich Cookies, this past weekend has been one of celebration, because today is my birthday! My birthday however, is not the only one that required celebrating! Friday was my mother’s birthday, so I decided to make her (but also kind of myself) a … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Birthday Cake
Roopa It is Alana’s birthday this weekend!!! She is baking herself a cake (obviously), so I wanted to make something completely different. Alana’s favourite things in life include hammocks and peanut butter, so there was no doubt that this needed to be a peanut butter centred treat. We actually make peanut butter at my house, … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Sandwich Cookies
MINT CHOCOLATE SANDWICH COOKIES Roopa I had some leftover icing from these cupcakes, so I decided to make a batch of these cookies (minus the chocolate chips) and make little oreo-esque cookies!
Roopa Ever since I started baking, my mother became rather popular at work, since most excess cupcakes tend to go to her coworkers. One of the girls she works with will be leaving soon, so I made these. The icing is pretty sweet with the white chocolate, so it pairs really well with the chocolate … More Chocolate Cupcakes with Mint White Chocolate Icing
Roopa A friend of mine is in town today, so I thought I’d make him some cookies! In the past I’ve given him a lot of vanilla (even though he prefers chocolate) so I I’m overcompensating with these cookies. I just tweaked my normal cookie recipe, which worked very nicely. They’re strongly chocolatey, and not … More Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
