There’s nothing quite like a really good brownie. They’re a decadent treat that’s created their very own dessert category, right in that sweet spot somewhere between fudge (oooo) and cake (yummm). Brownies are rich enough to satisfy any chocolate craving, but not too intense to rule out a second serving.

Have you ever had a taste for a particular dish, but when you search for a recipe to help satisfy your craving all the options sound too darn complicated? Because that’s precisely how this super simple Baked Citrus Sweet Potatoes “recipe” was born! *Hint: It's way easier than pie!

Once you make a batch of chili, you get to EAT a batch of chili. Hopefully not all in one sitting, but completely understandable if you tried. Especially if you also whipped up a batch of homemade cornbread, because those two combined might be my most favorite meal to ever consume on this planet we call earth.

When I think about Banana Cake the corners of my mouth involuntarily start to turn upward, the internal dialogue to always ‘do more’ mysteriously becomes muted, and the world seems to momentarily pause. That’s the magic of baking. Or maybe it’s the magic of love. Or to combine the two, it’s the magic of Banana Cake.

For me, chicken and dumplings is the “pizza” of stews; there’s never a time when it doesn’t sound good. You can pretty much eat it at any time and for any meal. It’s super easy to prepare and keeps well in the fridge. Plus you can dress it up with sides or have it as a meal in itself. No matter what way you go, I hope you like this recipe as much as I do!

My main memories of making this dish were when we needed a quick supper; either before or after our mom took me to dance class. Yes, there was a lot of that (thanks again for all that driving, Mom!)

This fail proof recipe was in regular rotation in our childhood home. The only matter in question was who was going to make the next batch. Which is why I’m pretty confident that one of the first recipes I ever ventured to execute on my own was for chocolate chip cookies.

There are three words that I associate with my dad: apples, whole wheat, and bran. This recipe has all three, along with cinnamon, raisins and pecans - oh my! A classic muffin, courtesy of our pops.

So if pancakes were my family, then waffles were my first love. Yeast waffles to be specific. They were a fantastical creation to my young mind. An engineering marvel. A pastry designed with self-contained wells for syrup and butter.

The entire experience was a sensory delight from the anticipation, to the first smell to the actual eating. It is the winters of our childhood summed up into one dish.

Our dad's dinner rolls (with molasses!) are a classic treat on the family holiday table - but are Hahnestly amazing any time of year!

A good sandwich on a warm day is really about as good as you can get, but it'll be next level if it uses this recipe for slow cooker Shredded Beef!
