But Jack is (that’s an understatement)… and literally this is all of his favorite things packed into one decadent dessert. Months ago, I saw this recipe on The Kitchn, and immediately knew I’d surprise him with it for his birthday. Of course I’m not going to sit by and watch him eat a pan of brownies all by himself. So I made two versions, a (non-dairy) cream cheese version for me, and this goat cheese version for him. I made a few other healthier alterations – I used maple syrup instead of sugar, oat flour instead of all purpose, and I used vegan versions of butter and cream cheese.

I've wanted to make gingerbread men jello shots for a long time now, but every time I looked up a recipe online it required three different types of booze (expensive!)
And instructions to melt molasses and peel and boil real ginger. Way too much work. But ... you are going to love me, I found a solution to our gingerbread problems. This little packet of flavoring is meant for frosting, but it works just as well in a mixture of sweetened condensed milk, water, gelatin and vodka. It also has the perfect brown gingerbread coloring your shots will need. I layered the jello with cherries in the middle (just like I did with these, and these) so that you can pick up your little guys with ease. The cherries also look kind of cute too, like a button or the gingerbread mans heart.
Of course I couldn't eat these, because I'm preggers. Cheers to the start of the Christmas season!

Hmm, it would seem, but to be safe — if your poptail falls on the floor, give it a quick run under cold water and then pour some tequila over it. Fallen poptail saved. Three days later — no ill effects. I feel fine. The takeaway is that you really can eat off my kitchen floor.

In addition to all sorts of delicious treats I enjoyed that summer like Hob Nobs and Aero bars, I fell in love with toast and Nutella. Not that I couldn’t have gotten nutella back at home if I wanted to, I was just oblivious to it before.
Well, I’m exactly the opposite of oblivious now. I always have a jar on hand. Whoever first thought of putting Nutella into brownies deserves some sort of award. These brownies are among my favorite recent creations. If you are a fan of brownies, and a fan of Nutella (and really, who doesn’t love both?)

Diet Big Mac isn’t an option, obviously) With all that being said, one thing I AM super great at is decision making. If there was a job where you could be paid for your ability to make sound decisions quickly and efficiently, I’d be wearing a red velvet robe and a monocle, diving into a room full of gold coins.
So I’ve decided that maybe it would be a good idea to let everyone in on my decision-making secret. So here it is:Â When faced with a super important decision, I try to imagine how two of my heroes, Punky Brewster or Chuck Norris, would handle the situation.
