A Pumpkin & Apple Time Out

โ Hi Reader! Yesterday was National Chocolate Day, which is another reason (excuse) to eat more chocolate! ๐ฅณ I wanted to shine a light on some of my favorite chocolate treats, starting with this glorious Chocolate Brownie Meringue Cake! It's everything you love about brownies: rich, deep chocolate flavor with that decadent (dreamy!) fudgy texture. This meringue cake has the added bonus of a crispy, chocolate meringue top that crinkles and cracks and as it cools. It's perfect on its own, and next level when topped with cool vanilla ice cream, a dollop of tangy crรจme fraรฎche, fresh whipped cream and/or brown sugar caramel. I wouldn't kick berries out of the equation either! I use a springform pan to make this (the same pan you would make a cheesecake in). The cake rises quite a bit during baking and you'll need those high sides to keep it contained. *IF* you use a regular cake pan, make sure it has 10-cup capacity with at least 3-inch (8-cm) tall sides. This meringue cake is made in a similar way as my favorite brownie recipe, so it's pretty unfussy. It'll take you about 20ish minutes to throw together and it needs about 55 minutes in the oven. That's it! Scroll down for more chocolate treats to celebrate this ridiculous, but must needed, day! Sending you big hugs on this Wednesday!
PS With Halloween just days away, this is your reminder that these Halloween Candy Cookies are a must-bake this week! |

Happy weekend Reader! Not gonna lie, but I'm not nuts about nuts in cookies. But hear me out... This is the cookie that was inspired by 'the cookie' from the Metropolitan Market in Seattle. It's thick, gooey and stuffed with puddles of chocolate and toasted walnuts. The brown butter cookie dough base is loaded with vanilla and brown sugar and is basically a dream. These cookies can absolutely be baked immediately or you can store the cookie dough in the fridge for several days and enjoy the...
Hi Reader! We're deep into pumpkin season and as you know, I'm here for it! Below are all of my favorite pumpkin puree tips and troubleshooting, along with a collection of October pumpkin favorites. ๐๐ผ I also wanted to share a couple of favorite things that I'm enjoying post ๐๏ธ surgery: This pumpkin cardamom candle (from Quince) that burns for so long and is the quintessential October candle. I also bought these ALO sweats (top & bottom) and they are so cozy! True-to-size if you want them to...
