Desserts

Am I the only one who has accidentally typed “desert recipes” instead of “dessert recipes”? Nope? Good- glad we got that out of the way.

Now we can discuss the important stuff: YUMMY DESSERTS! In all honesty, I am much more of a savory person, but I do love a sweet treat every now and again. And it seems that a common request at potlucks and parties is to bring a dessert.

If I am lucky, they’ll ask for an appetizer, but that rarely happens. 

Whether you choose to spend hours letting dough rise or cake layers cool or are like me and would rather make a no-bake dessert recipe, you’ll find what you are looking for here.

OREO Truffle Balls

Along with oodles of recipes for Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and Halloween. Even Patriotic Desserts!

Since my love in the kitchen isn’t necessarily baking, I try to find other easy dessert recipes. True, every once and while I’ll try my hand at a three layer cake or fancy bar, but generally speaking,

I am all about the best dessert recipes that take the shortest amount of time (or skill).

Cooking is an artform with a little bit of science. Baking is a science with a little bit of art.
