As you can tell from the title, this is one amazing cake. There are so many things to love about it! First, for us, is the toasted marshmallow filling, which is as good as it sounds (partially because it has tiny bits of chewy toasted marshmallow in it). It is so simple…broil some marshmallows and…

Dulce de Leche Ice Cream
Good ice cream is a spectacular thing for sure. Ice cream is so simple and delicious! We’ve had an ice cream maker for 3 years now but have probably only made homemade ice cream a handful of times, which is sad. Very rarely was it worth the effort anyway. A lot of the time we…
Nectarine Galette
What is your favorite summer dessert? For myself (Leah), I would have to say ice cream. I usually eat my ice cream either plain or loaded up with as many toppings as possible. However, I occasionally get a craving for a fruit-based dessert like a cobbler or a pie- I’m not a huge fan of…
Key Lime Pie
Updated 8/2/17 to add a new photo–it was time! Who doesn’t love a good slice of pie? My guess is no one, and anyone who thinks he or she dislikes it has probably not had good pie! They’ve probably had this kind of pie (this article is hilarious, and so is The Onion in general)….
White Chocolate-Mango Muffins
When summer rolls around, muffins don’t generally come to peoples’ minds, mostly because no one feels like turning on the oven in the heat unless they have to (like for a birthday cake or some last-minute brownies/chocolate chip cookies that are suddenly necessary). Well, turn on your ovens, friends, because these muffins are amazing. While…
Strawberry Lime Cupcakes
Leah and I arrived home from a school retreat on Friday, and our mom bought some cupcakes, a very rare occurrence in our house. They were lemon with raspberry frosting and quite delicious, although we ate so much junk at the retreat that cupcakes weren’t the best choice ever! Our little brother dropped his on…
Strawberry Swirl Cream Cheese Pound Cake
Pound cake is a favorite in our family. It’s the ideal cake- rich and dense with buttery vanilla flavor that needs no icing and requires minimal effort. Normally a basic pound cake is all that we make (although we occasionally stir in some chocolate chips) but every now and then it’s fun to make something…
Vanilla Sheet Cake
Leah and I come from a background of a cooking/food-loving family- yes, we are Italian! Our aunt and uncle own a restaurant, and another aunt worked as a chef and once cooked for Thomas Keller. All of our family gatherings have pretty awesome food, and Leah and I have enjoyed contributing recently as we have…
Orange Vanilla Bean Cupcakes
Neither of us have mentioned on here much, if at all, that we love to read. If I were to be completely honest, I (Celine) like reading better than cooking. That may come as a surprise since I have a cooking blog! Well, during the past couple of weeks in English we spent some time…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Muffins
We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and chocolate is one of the most important food groups (yes, it is a food group). So logically, the two should go together sometimes! Now, we aren’t saying you should skip out on healthier breakfasts like yogurt, berries, cereal, eggs, or whatever…
