It is getting warmer in Northeast Ohio. My son has been asking to make popsicles so I ordered these Zoku popsicle molds from Crate and Barrel. My first foray into popsicle making did not turn out that great. I found a recipe for lime popsicles that I made but sections of the popsicle were like …
I made these a few weeks back. They are amazing! I didn’t follow the recipe exactly – I knew my husband and son would not love cranberries so I made the batch using chocolate chips only. I used half of that batter to make delicious chocolate chip cookies. To the remaining batter I added cranberries …
Another Milk Bar recipe and this carrot cake was simply delicious! I wanted to make this for Easter, but due to the current quarantine situation we spent Easter at home without guests. I planned ahead for this one, since I knew it would be time consuming based on my experience making the apple pie cake. …
I offered to make cookies for the local PTA’s bake sale. It was another good opportunity to try a recipe from the Momofuku Milkbar Cookbook. These are quite complicated for cookies, but most of Christina Tosi’s recipes are complicated, in my opinion. If you don’t have the cookbook here is a link to the recipe. …

I’m a little late posting some Christmas cookie recipes. These cookies are delicious and I always get compliments on them. It’s basically a shortbread cookie dough transformed into thumbprint cookies filled with apricot and raspberry jelly. (Note: I did not have luck with the raspberry jelly as most of the jelly ran off the cookie …

I’m calling this the 3-day cake. The cake is seriously time consuming but soooo delicious! This is another recipe from Christina Tosi’s Milk Bar Cookbook. This definitely delivers the “wow” factor.

These are the best chocolate chip cookies! I made them three ways: 1) regular chocolate chip, 2) with walnuts, and 3) with sea salt. They were all divine!
