Chocolate Lava Cakes (2 Versions)

Both two different versions, derived from this recipe here.

I'd say out of the two the top was the best. They're actually quite low in calories, considering. Pretty filling two, although I made so many of these trying to get the best recipe that I'm sick of them, and can hardly look at these photos.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

And she's back! Wow, it's been more then a month since my last post, and for that I apologize. My laptop broke and we had to order a new part which took a few weeks, so I was without photoshop, which meant no editing pictures, which then meant no blog posts. But here we are, with some cookies. 

While I cannot remember the changes that I made to this recipe, the original is here. I do remember them being pretty good, but too cinnamon-y. 

I will be posting every day for a few days until I've finished posting all the recipes I'd made while on blogger hiatus.

Chocolate Spice Baked Oatmeal & Cinnamon Apple Dish

I'm been playing around in the kitchen trying to create a baked oatmeal dish, but I've been having trouble. I finally got the texture right today, it wasn't mushy at all! Sort of muffin-like, but a bit more solid. It wasn't quite right yet, I would only use one tablespoon of cocoa powder next time. This weekend I plan on perfecting a pumpkin bake with the leftover pumpkin puree that has been in my fridge for a couple weeks.. I wonder how long it can last in there?

Pear & Almond Chocolate Spice Cake

Vegan things don't seem to like being cooked. They always appear raw on the inside, no matter the temperature of the oven, or the amount of time they cook for. This cake, although still tasty, was no exception.

Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Two posts in one week?!?! Is this real or..
YES. It's a miracle, Kelsey has actually posted somewhat regularly for once. I know I don't post too often, but I make the same things over and over, just with little changes, so I don't see fit to actually post the recipe.. But I made this pancake recipe completely from scratch, so proud!

Sweet Sixteen


Oh. My. God. I found this cake a month before my sixteenth birthday, and knew I had to make it. It was love at first sight! I thought it was the most beautiful cake ever, and I had been looking forward to making it for weeks.

Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookies

     I can't remember if I blogged about my past failure at making red velvet cookies. I was trying to make whoopie pies, but I didn't have enough red food colouring, so I tried adding yellow, then gave up. They ended up being thin chocolate looking cookies. They were yummy, but not what I was trying to make. 

     Of course they don't sell red velvet cake mix in Canada, so I've had to make do with what I could find.

I put a bit too much cocoa powder in these, because I didn't measure properly, I just sort of poured it in. Don't worry, I've learned my lesson!

Spiced Chocolate Oatmeal

So I was about to make scrambled eggs for my breakfast, and I got all the ingredients out, went over to the stove, and saw that the frying pan was dirty. of course, me being too lazy, I put the egg whites away, and pondered what else I could have. I came up with oatmeal, and as I was boiling the water and milk, I glimpsed the cocoa powder. That gave me the idea to make chocolate oats! It went quite well, I had to add a bit of brown sugar in the end to make it a bit sweeter, but that's up to you. I found that it reminded me a bit of rice pudding, maybe the texture? Anyways, if you have a chocolate craving, here's a bit of a healthier alternative.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Well, here is my first ever blog post, and guess what it's about! Drum roll please? 
......COOKIES! I bet your surprised aren't you? No? Okay then.


These were originally supposed to be thin and crispy cookies, almost wafer-like, but they didn't turn out that way. It may of been because I didn't use a mixer, I just did it by hand. Who knows.
