Salted Dark Chocolate Chip Cookie Nice Cream Sandwiches
Hands. Down. My favorite dessert on this blog!
I feel like I always say that but as the stakes get higher, so does the quality of desserts and I’m telling you, this one will be hard to beat!
Honestly, if you just read the tag line and see notes of homemade, soft and chewy, drenched, salted on top of the best dessert words like ice cream, cookie, dark chocolate shell - it’s like my taste buds are crying for joy!
And my taste buds continue to cry as I make this dessert time and time again!
It’s honestly a flawed system because my intentions are to make a big batch, store them in the freezer, so that I can have them longer. But since I know that I have the best dessert ever in my freezer just seconds away from my room, I can’t help but to run straight to the freezer and possibly (cough* eat all of them within days…). Again, as my taste buds scream in delight - sorry, not sorry!
Apple Cider Churro Donuts
Last week, we had a local event in the area where business fronts downtown Hartwell would open their doors for women to shop, receive discounts in store all while enjoying delicious fall treats! In my office building, the chiropractor made warm apple cider, chocolate hummus, and goat cheese stuffed dates with chopped pistachios. So good!
Running on the apple cider train, I decided in my dreams that I should make some sort of apple cider donut! Haha, I swear, pressure to recipe development is where it’s at for me! As you can tell in the pictures, I have cute mini donuts sprinkled in and that is because my initial thought was to use them as a garnish for the apple cider!
Now, if you decide to use the apple cider churro donuts as a garnish for your apple cider or apple cider mimosas, then please take pictures and share - It would just be the cutest thing!
Pumpkin Cornbread Muffins
Another cornbread recipe!? Yes ma’am! This time, we are just going straight into a muffin tin vs cast iron skillet. Why? Well...I tend to just eat straight out of the skillet in one sitting so individually portioned muffins are what I need in life. Haha
Muffins are fun, in general though! But now that I’m thinking about it, I believe I have more muffin recipes on the blog than anything else! Enough small talk, let’s just dive right into this recipe!
I do have to preface by saying that if you don’t like the taste of pumpkin or team no #psl, then please don’t leave! Haha I want to assure you that these pumpkin cornbread muffins actually don’t taste like pumpkin. If anything, they taste more like a jiffy style cornbread flavor. The sole reason pumpkin puree is used in this recipe is because of texture and nutrients!
Mexican Harvest Turkey Chili
Okay, I know I just posted a cozy stew recipe last week but as I get older, the need for comfort fall foods (soups, stews, chili’s) has increased so sorry, not sorry! I have needs too, haha!
Just like the veggie beef stew, this chili recipe is a simple and easy way to load up on things healthy while being super affordable.
Harvest vegetables like butternut squash, yams, sweet potatoes, onions, garlic, pumpkin while adding a Mexican twist that also includes harvest ingredients like green chilies, poblano peppers, fire roasted tomatoes, beans, and corn - you are truly getting the best of both worlds!
Veggie Beef Stew
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a fire kindling in the background, snuggled with your dog on the couch with a heavy blanket and warm bowl of stew in hand? Goals, right?
Well, I can’t promise the fire or the dog but what I can promise you is a super easy but satisfying bowl of veggie beef stew. If anything, as you prepare all the ingredients and throw it into an Instant Pot or slow cooker, you can chop up some wood and steal your neighbors dog if you want to get the full ambiance! Haha
Just like the ultimate fall scene, so is this recipe because while it may look rich and hearty (and it is) it’s actually super cheap to make!
