Chocolate Stout Cake

In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day we’ve whipped up a boozy chocolate cake that’s also vegan! Very simple 30 minute bake that anyone can throw together. You can make it in an 8 x 8 square pan or take it up a notch and throw it into two 6” round pans for a layerContinue reading “Chocolate Stout Cake”

Chocolate Cookies with Smarties

Showing yourself some self love can come in many forms. A favourite way of mine is with food, particularly chocolate, and also particularly baked goods. Here we have both! Whip this small batch up in no time and hog them all to yourself if you like, or spread the love and share with your valentine.Continue reading “Chocolate Cookies with Smarties”

Vegan Chocolate Macaroons (GF)

Taking a lovely, tried and true recipe from my aunt and making them into something everyone can enjoy. Her recipe has been used countless times; however with friends having Celiac and some being vegan, I went the extra mile to make them with vegan/gf ingredients. I wasn’t sure they would work the same, but hereContinue reading “Vegan Chocolate Macaroons (GF)”

Double Chocolate Cookies (GF, DF)

It’s been a wee bit crazy on my end of things, but I promise I haven’t forgotten about posting recipes! Just to find the time lately. Life happens. I’ve made these numerous times and everyone who has tried them, loved them! My coworkers with celiac were especially happy to have these treats brought in. Soft,Continue reading “Double Chocolate Cookies (GF, DF)”

Two Bite Brownies

Perfect for a packed lunch, or serve at any party/get together! These two bite brownies are quick to throw together, with just 10 minutes in the oven (or less if you want them more on the gooey side).

Chocolate Bird Nests

Super easy, no bake recipe that results in 100% decadent chocolate treats. Taking a simple chocolate macaroon recipe and putting an Easter/Spring theme on it with a few mini eggs. Kid friendly, Mom approved? I approve it anyways! Just be careful in the first step when boiling ingredients, it could spatter a bit. We usedContinue reading “Chocolate Bird Nests”

Chocolate Hazelnut Chai Whoopie Pies

Easy, unbelievably delicious, the flavours… you’ll just want to eat one after another! This recipe is egg free and easily made vegan if you use a plant based butter and Nutiva. It makes about 20 cookies (10 sandwiched), and the recipe is easily doubled if you want to serve them at a party or giveContinue reading “Chocolate Hazelnut Chai Whoopie Pies”

Chocolate Hazelnut Stuffed Banana Nut Muffins (GF)

Long title, I know, but we used Kraft Hazelnut Spread instead of Nutella because Kraft doesn’t used palm oil. You can use Nutella in this recipe or even the store brand – it’s your choice! Honestly, the Kraft brand is way cheaper, and just as amazing. These muffins are gluten-free, but ridiculously moist (sorry), andContinue reading “Chocolate Hazelnut Stuffed Banana Nut Muffins (GF)”

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

This recipe was totally an experiment and it had very tasty results. Taking a basic peanut butter cookie recipe (you know the one off the side of the jar) and adding cocoa powder & chocolate chips, and resulting in a cookie that’s basically got it all. Especially if you’re using crunchy peanut butter. And ifContinue reading “Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies”
