Cookie Dough Popsicle Recipe

After having spent my summer creating & eating almost every popsicle flavor possible I decided it was time to wrap up these babies & create a transitional flavor as the weather begins to turn. Ah I know I said it & cold weather is terrifying but luckily this sweet treat will make you forget about […]

Nutella Stuffed Pumpkin Cookies

Fall only means one thing in girls ages 15-25 eyes: pumpkin spiced latte. Seriously, the fuss about it takes over my life: Instagram–or all social media for that matter, buzz on the streets, & don’t even think about standing in line at Starbucks as it’s all you’ll be hearing. So it may come as a surprise to you all that […]

Goat Cheese Pastry

Three Ingredient Healthy Banana Bread Cookies

It was time this banana bread cookie got a well-deserved blog post makeover. We originally published this in 2015 which just goes to show how many years we’ve been making & enjoying these super simple & delicious cookies. It’s gluten-free (if you use GF oats), vegan (if you opt out of chocolate chips or use vegan chips), […]
