Wow, I knew it had been a while since I wrote a blog post, but it wasn’t until I sat down to write this post for my garlic cheese drop biscuits that I realized it’s been nearly 3 months! And what a 3 months they have been. Since my last post not only have we […]
Baked Pizza Rolls
One of my favourite parts of Christmas vacation is having the time to spend on trying out new food ideas and recipes. And yesterday what I had on my mind was baked pizza rolls. To be more specific I had pizzaroni on my mind, those deep-fried little pizza nuggets in the freezer section that are […]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar Cookies
These Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar cookies have been one of my go-to Christmas cookie recipes for many years and the best thing about them (aside from how easy they are) is that they are perfect at any time of the year–not just at Christmas! In fact, anyone who attended my “May the Fourth” Star Wars […]
Suzi’s Sugar Cookies
In case you haven’t noticed, I’m not your average fitness instructor. When it comes to special event classes, I almost always make a treat for my participants. This past Monday I taught a “Summer Beach Party” Yoga Class, and as part of the festivities, I made these cute summer-themed sugar cookies. I hadn’t planned to […]
Easter Bird’s Nest Cookies
If there is one thing my family has come to expect over the years, it’s that I’ll make my Bird’s Nest Cookies every Easter. I’ve been making them for probably 20 or more years now, and I don’t think I’ve ever missed a year making them for Easter. They are totally addictive, I’m not sure […]

Quick Chocolate Lava Cakes
Who doesn’t love lava cakes? Seriously. They are insanely delicious. The first time I had one, which was back in 2011, I made it from scratch and it was a pretty involved process. I took a classic recipe, that had me melting down chocolate in a double boiler–which of course meant I really melted it […]
Apple Cake Pops
When I think of September, apples always come to mind, so when I was trying to think of what kind of cake pops I would make, a nice red apple cake pop seemed logical. Cake pops are something that seems really frightening and hard, but really, they are pretty easy. Apple Cake Pops Whenever I […]
Chocolate-Dipped Apple Pops
I struggled a bit with figuring out what to call these. They aren’t candied apple slices, but Chocolate-dipped apple slices sounded a little weird, so chocolate-dipped apple pops it is! I don’t know what it is about a treat on a stick that seems so exciting, maybe it brings out the kid in all of […]
Watermelon Cookie Pops
A few weeks about on Instagram I asked you which you were more interested in learning – how to make a cookie pop or a cake pop. I was certain cake pops were going to win, but I was wrong! When cookie pops took the lead I knew exactly what type of cookie pop to […]
