Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dessert Pizza

Before I tell you guys about this dessert pizza, I have to first tell you about my new puppy.  Okay. My husband wouldn’t like that term.  Our new puppy. His nickname is Grizzy, his formal name is Clark W. Griswold Jr., and he’s my new baby.  I seriously cannot believe how much I love him.  I’ve… Continue reading Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dessert Pizza

Easy Sopapilla Cheesecake

My 35 year old self was recently lured onto SnapChat by my girlfriends who also use it, despite the fact that they are not, in fact, in middle school (although my “Stories” feed from them is full of silliness.) Trying to navigate a new social media outlet gets harder and harder the older I get.… Continue reading Easy Sopapilla Cheesecake

Johnny Iuzzini’s Crumb Cake

I came across this recipe for Johnny Iuzzini’s Crumb Cake on Just Baked a few days ago, and as soon as I saw the pictures of the cake, and the source of the cake (totally rad pastry chef and Top Chef judge Johnny Iuzzini) I knew that I had to try it, even though having… Continue reading Johnny Iuzzini’s Crumb Cake
