Orange Sherbet

My cousin and sister are the biggest orange sherbet fans I know.  For my cousin's birthday, I wanted to surprise him with a tub of homemade sherbet which I saved some to share with my sister as well.  I found a simple recipe from Cook's Illustrated Baking Book that even blew my mind on how good it turned out.  It tasted just like an orange creamsicle.  I already have multiple requests to make more soon.

Irish Cream Brownies

I had this recipe for Irish Cream Brownies from Brandy's Baking bookmarked for as long as I can remember.  I finally had a chance to make them on honor of St Patrick's day!  I followed her recipe for the Irish Cream (1/2 portion) as is but I did use my own go to brownie recipe.  I would double my own brownie recipe next time as there wasn't enough to actually cover the irish cream batter.  I ended up doing a swirl to cover up the error.

If you are looking for additional inspiration, I featured a St Patrick's day roundup here and later updated the Guinness cupcake here.

From The Archives

Was reorganizing my photos this weekend and found a few items that I baked and photographed but never shared here for some reason.  Enjoy!

Brookies with nuts made from one of my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes and my go to brownie recipe.

Chocolate chip cookies (possibly) from All Recipes that are big, fat, and chewy.

Cornbread made from scratch from Cook's Illustrated.

Chocolate almond toffee from David Lebovitz which was delicious alone and even better in ice cream.
