Life Through My Eyes
So earlier today, I was craving something sweet (this is happening way too often lately). For a long while, I couldn’t think of what I wanted… but finally I thought to make crepes! They were delicious! Today, I served it alongside ice cream, chocolate sauce and strawberries, In the past, I’ve done a combination of …
So my chocolate chip cookie recipe? I used that today as a base for a recipe test run to see how they would turn out as “cookie cups”. They are basically cookies, but more presentable and fun. The only change I pretty much made to that recipe was instead of using a cup of milk …
So last night, I wanted chocolate chip cookies. I was tired, however, and after starting to mix the ingredients together, I just didn’t want to have to sit there and form each individual cookie, and then bake them in batches and whatnot. Epitome of laziness, I know. The compromise? I decided to just turn the …
Chocolate Hazelnut Swirl Cheesecake with a hazelnut crust. Yum? I wanted to make a cheesecake that incorporated chocolate in it, but wasn’t too chocolate-y [technical term]. Oh, and I wanted to add nuts in it. I remember coming across a lot of nutella cheesecakes, but because I didn’t want the whole thing to be chocolate… I decided …
I made this for the first time, back on Thanksgiving Day [2012]. I’ve made them several time since, and they are one of my favorite dessert bars for sure. They are easy to make, absolutely delicious, and for sure satisfy your sweet tooth! What I used: 9 graham crackers, crushed into crumbs (or an equivalent …

For Faraz’s [my brother] birthday today, I narrowed down the dessert to something either to do with chocolate chip cookies or Oreos relatively quickly because those are his favorite [cookies]. Ultimately, Oreos won over simply …
Today, I made a peanut butter cake with [milk] chocolate chips in it, in my bundt pan. The end result? Chewy on the outside, moist on the inside… and you couldn’t exactly tell there was peanut butter in it for the picky eaters. I liked how it turned out, but it took forever to bake: …
The recipe I used for my Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie? Like I mentioned in that post, I used the leftover batter at the end to make about a dozen chocolate chip cookies. A good home chocolate chip cookie recipe makes such a difference! They were soft, moist, and chewy — just the way homemade chocolate …
Today, I made cheesecake with a warm chocolate center [homemade from scratch] as an early dessert for my parents [29th] wedding anniversary tomorrow! It was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious! Cheesecakes always seem daunting to me, but it really was straightforward, even with my chocolate center filling twist added. It made it look that much more sweet …
I have to say that the best part of this recipe is that it’s everything you would have at home already. I wasn’t planning on making a pi[e] themed meal yesterday at all, until the afternoon, when I figured why not? You need: 2 sticks of unsalted butter, at room temperature 1/2 cup of granulated …
