For the past two years, my master’s program has delayed some of my BWF posts but just this past weekend I graduated!

We made these deliciousContinue reading “Cookies & Creme Cupcakes”
Black & White Chocolate Chip Cookies
So, I had incomplete amounts of chocolate chips for a recipe I wanted to make and could not find a recipe for that amount.

Chocolate Cake
Laura and I were craving chocolate and decided to just make a plain old chocolate cake! Even though it was plain, it was very soft and moist. It would taste great with any kind of icing and even without icing as a not-too-guilty dessert! The original recipe even has some not-too-guilty substitutes for fattening ingredients! IngredientsContinue reading “Chocolate Cake”
