One of my favorite treats! I used to make these years ago but now, reflecting back on the ingredient list, I can’t believe I used to eat so many! 4 cups of powdered sugar… What was I thinking?? These big bites of peanut butter and chocolate taste just like the ones I used to…
After the polling closed, Chocolate Graham Crackers won out over the Cheddar Crackers! The results didn’t surprise me. I have not met many people who do not like chocolate but I do know they exist. My husband is not a big fan… this just means I don’t have to worry about him eating my chocolate……
I like a good low acid coffee. I drink just a little in the mornings (usually about 1/2 cup). Some days it gives me something to look forward to after getting up with the baby during the night. It’s the small things in life when you have 2 little ones with no break for yourself.…

My first experience with Nutella happened about 5 years ago. The container below is the first and last jar I ever purchased. I had heard others talk about how good it was and I had seen the commercial stating it was made with “hazelnuts, skim milk and a touch of cocoa.” Sounds good, right??? Oh,…

Four months ago (and 9 months pregnant), I began to work on this recipe. Apparently I teased many of you with the thought and picture of this recipe! I apologize! 😉 I promise it was worth the wait. At last, I am posting MY version of German Chocolate Cake! This is basically two cakes in one.…
At last, the Dairy-Free and Chocolate counterpart to the Dessert Pizza I posted last week! I am not sure which one I like better! This is my first time making my “Sugar” Cookie (from the Cookbook), Dairy-Free. The only change I made was using less fat or in this case, virgin coconut oil. This made…
When I think about these truffles, I begin to sing “A teaspoon of sugar helps the medicine go down…” Why you ask??? Because each of these yummy cholatey treats contain almost 1 tbsp of coconut oil! I am so glad I ordered coconut cream concentrate a few weeks ago. I already add virgin coconut oil…
I confess… I was one of those kids that would eat chocolate frosting right out of the tub, 1 spoonful at a time! I think back on those times and wonder why I didn’t go into a diabetic coma!! But it was sooo good… I thought! This recipe is my new indulgence… I get in…
If you missed my last blog post, I am currently giving up dairy and nuts for a while. Variety is the spice of life and I need a little spice! 😉 Well, if I can have this ice cream, who needs dairy?! Really! It’s delicious! You will need just a little patience though because the mixture…
I can’t believe my little man is 8 weeks old! WOW! It just doesn’t seem right! I am so glad he is here and we are slowly but surely adjusting to having 2 under two in the house. It ain’t easy but we are surviving! My heart is overflowing with love for both of them.…
There is nothing more yummy than Little Debbie’s Snack Cakes. Yes, they are garbage in a box but they are good in their own weird way. Maybe it is due to the long list of ingredients that manipulate your taste buds and deprive you of any nutrients??? Check out the ingredient’s in Ol’ Debbie’s Fudge…
This picture is pretty much self explanatory! I have recreated Little Debbie’s Fudge Brownies and they are AWESOME!!!! Would you like to see the recipe??
Heaven on a plate! This Old Fashioned Chocolate Cream Pie would be something my grandmother would make! The chocolate pudding filling and whipped cream topping remind me of diner food or the pie I used to get a Waffle House….this pie is Old School Baby! 😉 I did choose to use a nut crust which is…
Lower in Carbs than traditionally purchased chocolate chips Soy-Free Dairy-Free No Artificial Ingredients Cheaper than commercially purchased low-carb or natural Chocolate Chips Holds up while baking Use in the place of chocolate chips in ANY recipe Over a year ago when I gave up grains and sugar, I started making my own chocolate using unsweetened…
There has been a bit of confusion over a recipe I posted about 1 year ago. It was actually a recipe that come about from 3 batches of broken ganache! As the old saying goes, I made lemon-aide out of lemons! Well, not only have I simplified the ganache recipe, but I have now simplifying the…
This Cookie Cake is AMAZING!!! In all honesty, I have never purchased a Cookie Cake at the mall. I have in the past purchased a chocolate chip cookie but the thought of a mega cookie and all that sugar and carbs which is clearly not good for health…
