I’m a huge fan of cherries, but love shortbread too; this makes the perfect combination! I will warn you that you may want to freeze these once made, otherwise they may disappear much too fast, or at least that is what happens in my house! Cherry Shortbread Squares are to be a sure hit this holiday season! They are also the perfect baking to do with little helpers! INGREDIENTS Base: 1.5 … Continue reading →

Easy Peach Crisp

Earlier this week, I published my Simple Apple Crisp Recipe for you to try out. Peach crisp is another wonderfully easy dessert to make. All it takes is a bit of labour to peel the peaches and it can be thrown together in a matter of minutes after that. There is no trick to baking it, other than burning it (just keep your eye on your oven after 20 minutes have passed), there really is NOTHING that you can do wrong with this dish. So if you aren’t a baker and would like to try a dessert, this would be … Continue reading →

Homemade Iced Coffee

On a hot summer day, or even at night when you are sitting outside enjoying the nice, beautiful summer weather, why not enjoy a refreshing Homemade Iced Coffee? I love brewing coffee with my Keurig coffee maker because each cup is freshly made and is fully brewed in seconds! You can serve it in a fun way with a fancy pitcher, a tray, some fun straws and I always like to add a bit of flare with fancy, shaped coffee ice cubes. Are you like me? I LOVE my coffee, but on the hot days of summer, I often crave … Continue reading →

The fancy word for this dessert is “Galette”, but in my books, it is a cheater pie. It tastes like pie, it just doesn’t look like it! Remember, it’s just a fancy name for cheater pie!  So, you’re still asking yourself, what is Galette? Answer from Wikipedia: “Galette is a term used in French cuisine to designate various types of flat round or free form crusty cakes.” So does that answer your question? Perhaps not. As I mentioned above, I find Galette to be like a cheater pie because it has all of the exact same ingredients as a pie, … Continue reading →

My kids are in a bit of a rut with breakfast, and I want to change it up so I’ve made them some breakfast bars this morning in hopes to change things up a bit.
