OK now that it's officially fall, let's talk about Christmas cookies! Just kidding (kind of)... But we are getting closer to my favorite time of the year, so I decided to re-shoot some of my favorite holiday recipes from the blog. Like these brownie mix cookies with white chocolate, cherries, and pistachios! ⁠
⁠
They're so easy to make with just a handful of ingredients, and you won't need a mixer, or even a whisk! Plus the flavors of the tart cherries, the creamy white chocolate, and the crunchy roasted pistachios work so perfectly with the fudgy brownie base. I won't judge you if you don't wanna wait until Christmastime to make these!⁠

Do you like going apple picking in the fall? 🍎🍏🍁🍂 My friends and I usually do an annual outing to an orchard in Indiana to pick apples, pumpkins and sunflowers 🌻 And we never leave without getting our hands on several dozen fresh-baked apple cider donuts! 😋 ⁣It's definitely my favorite fall tradition!⁣
⁣⁣
We haven't been able to do our apple picking yet this year, but until then this APPLE CIDER DONUT CAKE is bringing all those same autumn flavors! It's a buttery pound cake packed with fresh apples, apple cider, warm fall spices, brown sugar, sour cream, and vanilla. And of course, it's dusted with cinnamon sugar and a hint of freshly-grated nutmeg. Trust me, it's everything you need this apple season!⁣⁣

I try to have a smoothie every day to get my veggies in, but realistically it's more like a few times a week. When I do remember to have one, it's usually this 2-minute green smoothie! I use pre-packaged frozen fruit and bagged chopped kale, so there's basically no prep! And I add in flaxseeds and collagen to keep me looking 23 🤣⁠

This simple 6-inch vanilla cake recipe is the top post on my blog at the moment, and I know why! It's an easy, one-bowl recipe, it's perfectly portioned for 1-3 to enjoy, and it's SO good! Rich, vanilla flavor, a soft, moist crumb, and the best vanilla buttercream icing! Good things DO come in small packages!⁠
⁠
This cake was born when I wanted a sweet treat for just the two of us and our socially-distanced Easter dinner this year, and it did not disappoint! Make it for your next small celebration, or just for yourself. 😉⁠

Any other butter pecan fans out there like me? If so, this butter pecan layer cake is perfect for you! It's full of flavor: buttery, toasted pecans, brown butter (of course 😊), vanilla, and brown sugar. The sour cream in the batter keeps it all nice and moist, and the brown butter cream cheese frosting wraps everything up so nicely!

Today is my brother @_tony_lewis_' s birthday! So this cake is for him as part of our mini outdoor celebration 🎉😷 And I got a chance to try out a semi-naked cake style (still working on it 😂)!

Celebrate with us and make this decadent 6-inch layer cake! The recipe is at the link in my bio! @chenee_today

Normally, Labor Day weekend is a weekend full of festivals, state and county fairs, and big backyard parties. This year is anything but normal, but you can still have that irresistible flavor of sweet and salty kettle corn right at home on your stove top! ⁠

This kettle corn pops up so crispy and light, and is made with @popsecretpop jumbo popping corn lightly coated with brown sugar, white sugar, sea salt, and a touch of cinnamon! It's also vegan, gluten free, and it's the perfect "quarantine recipe" - made completely of budget-friendly, non-perishable pantry items! And so easy, you'll make it for yourself and your family again and again!⁠

Chocolate and orange are one of my all-time favorite flavor combinations, ever since I was a kid. These orange & chocolate chip mini muffins are bursting with those classic flavors: the richness of brown sugar and buttermilk, citrus orange zest, @nestletollhouse mini morsels, and crunchy turbinado sugar on top! They're perfect for a quick breakfast treat, an afternoon snack, or an easy dessert! ⁣
