Samantha Favorites
LEMON BAR BUTTER CAKE
The cake of everyones dreams- the best spring & summer dessert that will have everyone at your dinner parties raving about. A butter cake topped with lemon bar filling is exactly what this is. A butter, moist, soft lemon cake (instead of your typical shortbread crust) with a gooey lemony, zesty, sweet, delicious lemon bar
S’MORES CAMPFIRE KRISPY TREAT BARS
Rice Krispie Treats are everyone’s favorite past time snack. I remember the first time I ever made homemade rice krispie treats with my grandma, one summer, and the sticky, crunchy, crispy contrasting textures with every bite was so delicious. Adding different flavors and cereal to come up with to enjoy was always the best part.
RED VELVET BROWNIES (SMALL BATCH)
My favorite dessert, and quite honestly my go-to dessert that I make more often than not are…. brownies. Since they are a rich decadent dessert that is extremely fudgy and full of chocolate flavor; I am always looking for ways to make them more interesting and add different elements – textures, add-ins, flavors, colors etc.
BETTER THAN STARBUCKS LEMON LOAF
August 22, 2022
For as long as I can remember, Starbucks lemon loaf was my all time favorite and go-to order. I remember both of my parents having to be at work early and some days would drop me and my sister off at Starbucks two blocks from my school. It became routine, a hot chocolate and a
NUTELLA BANANA MUFFINS
August 22, 2022
Banana bread is a must but these banana nutella muffins are an absolute must! I love a taste of Nutella in just about anything – cookies, muffins, loaves, brownies etc. Adding it to banana muffins gives it a nutty yet chocolatey taste and adds so much flavor. Banana and chocolate are a classic combination; but
BROWNIE ESPRESSO CHEESECAKE BITES
August 22, 2022
There is absolutely nothing better than espresso/coffee and chocolate; but this time let’s add brownies and cheesecake to that mix. Espresso cheesecake one of the best types and I figured since it is always made with an Oreo crust or your classic graham cracker crust I decided to switch it up and make the base
SMALL BATCH BROWNIES
August 22, 2022
The perfect amount with the most perfect fudgey, flakey top, chocolatey brownies you’ll ever eat. I am not one to leave desserts uneaten, but there are definitely times in which there are desserts that get left behind. I created these in order to make sure its the perfect amount of brownies every time; when all
OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
August 22, 2022
These will instantly be your new favorite Oatmeal Cookies. I am not a fan of raisins in my cookies but definitely feel free to add anything you love to these cookies! I am a sucker for a chocolate chunk/chip in my oatmeal cookies. I will say, up until a few years ago, this was never
BROWN BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
August 22, 2022
Chocolate Chip Cookies are the ultimate dessert, I don’t know anyone that doesn’t like them. They are typically the first dessert you try as a child, and the one you grow up around, constantly eating; whether its from a package, bakery or homemade, they are THE BEST DESSERT. This will be your new go-to homemade
BLACK & WHITE TUXEDO COOKIES
August 21, 2022
Truly the best of both worlds, Trust me on this one! I am a huge sucker for cookies so combining a chocolate and a regular chocolate chip cookie together is extremely deadly, especially if your anything like me and have a cookie sweet tooth. Cookies are typically the first treat anyone and everyone learns to
