Let’s talk cakey brownies! Even if you’re more of a fudge brownie sort of person, there’s something to be said about the old-fashioned homemade nostalgia of a cakey brownie that is lighter and less dense than their chewy fudgy counterpart. But the ideal cakey brownie can be hard to achieve. It has to hit that right balance between being more brownie than cake, otherwise why not just have a piece of dark chocolate Texas sheet cake? But it ALSO has to be less dense and chewy than a fudgy brownie, with a pleasant chocolate flavor that doesn’t feel like you’ve eaten a chocolate bar. It’s a hard balance to hit but after much experiment, I think I developed the best, easy-to-make cakey brownie, one that has the right bit of cakey texture but still fits into the brownie category. This, for me, is what a cakey brownie should be!

Growing up, I was engrained to use up EVERY. SINGLE. ITEM. in my kitchen and not to waste a single ingredient. And that includes those over browning bananas on top of my microwave. It’s why I have so many banana bread recipes on my blog like my walnut banana bread, chocolate banana bread, sourdough banana bread, and my Kahlua mocha marble banana bread. But every Fall I also find myself with small leftover amounts of pumpkin puree after making my pumpkin bread, pumpkin cream cheese muffins, pumpkin coffee cake, pumpkin bread pudding, and pumpkin cheesecake. That’s when I realize that I could combine the banana and pumpkin and make the brilliant combo banana pumpkin bread!

This post was sponsored by Safeway. I was compensated for this post and for developing the recipe. However, all opinions below are completely my own.

I’m not going to lie. When I go to a restaurant and there’s a Caesar salad on the menu, 9 times out of 10, I’m going to order it. It’s one of my all-time favorite salads to eat. So when Safeway and Boar’s Head approached me to partner for the new Boar’s Head FireSmith^™ Flame Grilled Chicken Breast, I knew that it would work beautifully in a chicken Caesar salad inspired sandwich. The Boar’s Head FireSmith^™ chicken is seasoned and then cooked over an open flame, giving it a grilled flavor that works perfectly with a quick homemade Caesar dressing and griddle toasted garlic bread.

Let’s talk a moment about one of my all-time favorite stone-fruits, peaches. There have been books written about love of honey-sweet juicy peaches. And there’s nothing that makes me happier than taking the first bite out of a perfectly ripe peach. I often buy huge amounts of peaches when I see them arrive at the store since peach season can be fleeting. So not only am I eating them out of hand, but I’m making desserts like peach slab pie, caramel peach upside down cake, my bellini peach cobbler with strawberry biscuits, and my peach and blueberry coffee cake. But this cinnamon sugar topped southern peach cobbler is a streamlined classic recipe that hits all the right notes, with an easy-to-make soft fluffy drop biscuit topping and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar topping that brings out the peach flavor.

Fruit galettes are one of the easiest desserts you can make. They are minimal effort with maximum reward; a pretty and rustic dessert that almost always impresses folks. I’ve made and shared fruit galette and tart recipes on this blog, like my strawberry rhubarb galette, my plum galette , my mead poached pear galette, my mixed berry galette with chocolate crust, my mixed berry tart with corn crust. But there’s always room for one more galette, like this luscious easy blueberry galette!

A few years ago, I made rainbow chocolate chip cookies and they were a huge hit with friends and on social media. But the technique for coloring the dough is pretty versatile and can be adapted for so many other cookies and designs! In fact, I took the same principle and made peppermint red-striped white chocolate cookies. And this time I decided to take the same cookie base and a similar technique and made these patriotic red, white, and blue cookies. They’re pretty stunning to serve up and absolutely fun to make as well as fun to eat! And though they look complicated to make, I give step-by-step instructions, as well as a video in this post, so watch carefully and you’ll see it’s not as difficult at is looks.
