Another day another cookie – I had hoped to photograph and stack of these chocolate beauties but there was only one left by the time I got there. Here’s my big girl cupping the last one which I swiftly ate. I can’t claim this recipe, it’s a…
I have to have a little chocolate every single day so consider myself and expert in this field. It’s my treat at the end of a hard day’s work. Because it was the weekend and we had our dear friends Lauren and Alex over…
Who wants a recipe for Chocolate Hummus? I first tried it at Trader Joes on one of Blair’s work trips to Seattle and since travel again is a loooong way off I thought I’d create my own delicious version. Gwynnie thinks it’s cookie dough…
