A Cozy Craving

Bluey and Bingo cakes for my kiddos party. 🥰 Bluey cake was my amazing chocolate cake filled with my fresh cherry preserves all topped with cherry buttercream. Bingo cake is my oh so good strawberry cake, filled with chocolate mouse and topped with strawberry buttercream. 🤤

Lookie lookie there….🤤🤤 Just ganna say, these chocolate chip cookies are soooo delightful! Always add the extra chips. 😏

Just stumbled upon a delicious chocolate chip muffin recipe! Can’t wait to whip up a batch of these sweet treats with some Angela flair. Who’s ready for some mouth-watering goodness?

The absolute best garlic knot rolls ever. They are so pillowy soft and chewy, perfectly buttery and garlicky. A treat of its own that pairs great with any red sauce dish, bbq, or even just as a midnight snack. 🤤

Something is always so delicious about chocolate and dolce deleche topped with chocolate ganache and caramel. 🤤😋 Such a delicious, decadent and delightful treat.

How about some warm chocolate sourdough bread on this rainy and stormy afternoon. 🥰 My kids love to enjoy this delightful treat warmed up with a little butter and hot cocoa. 😋 This bread makes a great little snack because it’s not very sweet, it is just enough to be satisfying. 🤤 Who wants some! 😍💕

Mint chocolate chip brownie cupcakes anyone? Don’t mind if I do, thank you. 🤤😋 My kids give me so much inspiration in both baking and photography. ❤️🧁

Who loves granola bars? 🤚 Especially homemade ones. Something we love doing in our home is creating recipes together. My kids and I spend a lot of time together in the kitchen creating such delightful treats. 🥰 The process always brings teachable moments and excitement when a mistake ends up being exactly what the treat needed. This particular recipe my youngest added the chocolate chips a little too early so the granola bars ended up being chocolate honey peanut butter granola bars. 😋 They are a major hit! I’d love to encourage you to create something yummy with someone you love, it maybe the next best creation! 😁

Who doesn’t love a macaron? 😋 If you say you don’t like them, then I don’t think we can be friends. 😉🤪🤔😁

The most perfect treat to send someone some love. They are delicious, cute and dainty. 🥰 These are called Petite fours, which is basically mini cakes with a glaze. These cute little treats are vanilla cake filled with vanilla buttercream and raspberry jam all drizzled with white chocolate ganache. 😋🤤

Sometimes traditional cinnamon rolls just arent the right fit for an event. 😉 On this particular morning I decided to make a sourdough braided cinnamon dish. This sweet little dish has all the right flavors for the cold winter season. It’s comfort to the max! ❤️

Our family loves nothing more than freshly baked bagels in the morning. We love to top ours with cream cheese. 😋 We are a family divided when it comes to toasted or not toasted. lol But, in the end we enjoy starting our mornings with a bagel and cup of coffee. My favorite bagel is cinnamon and raisin but this batch is a good old fashioned plain bagel topped with the everything bagel seasoning. So delicious and satisfying. 🥰

What’s your favorite bagel topping?

Oh the joys of the mouthwatering sandwich on freshly baked sourdough bread. Delicious fresh toppings perfectly moistened with homemade ranch dressing.

My husbands favorite is a sandwich with lots of sauce, usually mayo and stone ground mustard but he does enjoy my delicious buttermilk ranch dressing. With any sandwich it’s always important to have your tomato’s uniformly sliced, your choice of greens such as this sandwich which had shredded lettuce and you can’t forget the meat and cheese. 😋 Our favorite chosen green is sprouts but sadly we ran out of them before our next jar sprouted when I made this yummy sandwich. We tend to be a Turkey kind of family or fresh off the smoker pastrami. 🤤

What’s your favorites sandwich items? ❤️

Im sure you all have noticed my lack of activity and name change. Well I am pleased to announce some big changes! I’ve been expanding my baking knowledge and have been baking all kinds of delicious things. The reason for the name change was to incorporate all things yummy that I create in my own kitchen and for my family. Now it’s time to start sharing what I’ve been working on. Stay tuned while I get everything organized and ready to launch. So excited for whats to come. ❤️ As always, thank you for your faithfulness in continuing to follow my baking journey. Also, for my Facebook account, I accidentally put the wrong name in and I can’t change it for 60 days. The name will be A Cozy Craving once the 60 days is up. 😅

I had the opportunity to take a fun cookie decorating class last week and I had so much fun! It’s been a while since I decorated a cookie, it’s like riding a bicycle. 😅 Thank you for putting on such a cute and fun class. ❤️

Pumpkin spice cupcakes, how delicious. 🤤

When your youngest has a birthday and all she wants is hot chocolate with marshmallows you just turn it into a cake! Lol Hot chocolate cake it is my sweet girl. Happiest of birthdays. 🥰

Happiest birthday to my two little ladies. ❤️ A cake inspired by my kiddos, Alicorn cake for the win! It was a massive hit at the party and only 2 slices left over. Top tier was a chocolate cake with hot cocoa filling and marshmallow, second tier was strawberry cake with raspberry filling all decorated in buttercream. I love being able to bless others with my baking skills. ❤️ Boy I sure will miss baking at sea level again. 😢

As most of you know, photography is my second passion in life. Since being in our home town again we’ve been able to take our kids to all the gorgeous places we grew up going to. This place holds inspiration, memories of all kinds and so much joy in my life. I’m thrilled that we get to share it with our kids. 🥰

Yummm!!! Red velvet! 🤤🤤🤤 I’m here for all your gourmet dessert needs. 🥰❤️🙌

Something I love about the fall and winter months is the flavors! I’m a big pumpkin fan and its so satisfying when I hit the flavors of pumpkin perfectly. Welcome to the most decadent and delightful pumpkin spice cake wrapped in a spiced cream cheese frosting. It’s exactly what this weather calls for. 😍

I opened a Facebook account for my cakes again! Figured I need to buckle down and get serious about my cakes and photography, I only have until fall to find out if this is the career path for me. Pop on over to this page and give it a thumbs up! Im here for your cake needs. ❤️ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086884731971
