Chocolate Orange Zebra Cake
Chocolate and oranges are a match made in heaven. All the fancy Belgian chocolatiers know it. While I may not be a fancy Belgian chocolatier, I share this sentiment.

Small Batch Texas Sheet Cake
Being a Texan who’d never eaten Texas sheet cake, I was surprised reading about its supposed fame in the New York Times. This sheet cake is known for being big as Texas and being topped with pecan-embedded frosting. And to survive brutal Texas summers, the frosting isn’t whipped — instead, it’s made on the stove […]

Chocolate and Cranberry Scones

(In short, Brits make them plainer and then add toppings.) No matter the nationality, these chocolate and cranberry scones are moist, buttery, soft, lightly […]
Espresso Brownies
I will never create a different brownie recipe in my life. No egg replacements, no butter shortcuts, no substitutions can compare. These brownies already have everything I would want. The smooth top and moist interior. The thick texture. The hint of coffee. These brownies are indulgent, and when I’m making brownies, that’s exactly what I’m […]
Chocolate Zucchini Bread
It’s no secret that I’m a zucchini fiend. It’s just so versatile, so useful, and it hides away so well among other flavors that you can turn it into dessert and not taste it at all. That’s a superpower, and this is hands down my favorite sweet bread. Moist, rich, indulgent, and sweetened with honey, […]
