Cinnamon Crumb Crunch Coffee Cake Recipe

June 29, 2020

When I think of coffee cake, I always think of the Starbucks Coffee Cake….which used to be absolutely delicious. You see, about 8 years ago, they changed their coffee cake recipe, and it is just not the same. It used to be a heavenly thick hunk of moist cake with a half inch layer of decadent crumb topping. It was AMAZING and I would savor every last bite. When they changed the recipe, I (along with millions of other...

June 23, 2020

Growing up, my mom used to always make these cookies which she called “Butter Cookies” (known in the Netherlands as Boterkoekjes)…they were light, crispy and seriously delicious.

My Mama’s Gingersnap Cookies

December 17, 2019

If there is a unanimously favorite cookie in my family, it’s my mama’s gingersnap cookies. She has been making them for as long as I can remember…and whenever she bakes them, they have a tendency to disappear quickly! In fact, they are the only cookie my sister will actually eat (she doesn’t like sweets...
