Chocolate Frosting Shots! If you received an email from Pinterest saying I didn’t want recipes pinned, this is NOT true! I’m so sorry for this and have no idea why they would send out such a message!

Please accept my apologies and by all means keep pinning whatever you want… I’m honored when people pin my recipes! -Katie Tequila? What’s that? Healthy Frosting Shots? Maybe you’ve heard of the popular bakery, Sprinkles? Yesterday, I made my own chocolate frosting shots: Thick Chocolate Frosting… You can try this on my delicious Healthy Chocolate Cupcakes or even the Black Bean Brownies. Or skip the cupcake, like I did, and simply serve yourself a big glass of unadulterated chocolate bliss. (or chocolate mousse!) Healthy frosting recipe: Open your coconut milk, and if it’s not already super-thick, leave the can (or transfer to a bowl) uncovered in the fridge overnight.
M&M Cookie Pie I wish I could say that I was away on some terrific adventure, or that I have been so inspired to create magical dishes that I have been too busy in the kitchen with a knife in one hand and a spatula in the other to blog anything.... but, no. I have been just busy with life-things. Adult things, really. Like going to work and being super busy everyday, apartment hunting (which may be as much fun as bra shopping- ack), and thinking a lot about packing, cleaning, and making a giant Goodwill donation trip- but not actually doing any of it.Oh, I'm getting stressed just thinking about it.Cookie pie, anyone? Part of my birthday package from my mother last month included a large stack of mail, and a container of M&M's shaped like the great state of Texas.Awesome.I wanted to make cookies, but I didn't want to make cookies.

How to Make Peanut Butter S'Mores Turnovers Peanut Butter- S’Mores Turnovers I’m not much of a camper. My husband often takes my son on camping trips, and I happily stay behind and thank the gods for our bug-free house, cozy bed and well-stocked kitchen. I always send them off in comfort… marinate a little meat for them to throw on the grill, pack up some convenience foods and bake a few goodies too. Here’s the How To: Thaw out a box of Puff Pastry, and cut along the fold lines to make 6 large rectangles. Layer 1/4 of a whole graham cracker, a piece of milk chocolate bar and a spoonful of peanut butter on one side of the Puff Pastry. Wet the edges with water (dip your finger in water and gently touch along the edge), fold over the filling ingredients and press edges together. Transfer filled turnovers to a parchment-lined baking sheet, and brush with egg wash. Use a sharp knife to cut a couple of slits in the top of each turnover (to allow steam to escape while baking). Bake at 400 degrees F. until golden (about 15 minutes).

After traveling from Miami to Key West to Cape Cod, we are now enjoying eight days of laying on the beach, scuba diving and great food in Grand Cayman. I love this place!

Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Cookies You're awoken by the sound of distant thunder. Flashes of heat lighting stream through the drapes and reflect off the wall.

Blindly, you find your way to the window. These cookies are fresh, sweet and quickly disappearing. Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Cookies Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I must share an idea for a treat that’s WAY more special than a stuffed teddy bear holding a heart-shaped box of chocolates. (Seriously, who buys those things???) I used to get intense cravings for chocolate chip cookies, but one day, while in the process of whipping up a batch, I realized that it’s not the baked cookie I crave, it’s the dough! So when Lindsay posted this recipe on her blog last year, it was like a dream come true. I could get the raw cookie dough flavor and texture without the danger of eating raw eggs! (not to say that danger had ever stopped me from eating it in the past- it’s just nice to know that I can now do it safely) When I made a batch of these to give as gifts for Christmas, I’ll admit that I kept several of them for myself. Some things I’d like to point out: 1) You’ll notice that the recipe calls for baking soda, and you might question why that is needed if there is no baking involved. Now what are you waiting for?
