Dairy-Free Cantaloupe Soft Serve Ice Cream
This dairy-free cantaloupe soft serve ice cream is a bright and creamy treat, livened up by a basil garnish to complement the sweet with a little bit of savory.
I’m so glad that Shelby & Ross Produce was willing to share their cantaloupe with me so that I could bring you this summer treat! They provided me with product, but my opinions of the huge, sweet and juicy melons are my own (if you can get an idea of what I thought of them!).

Easy Chocolate Dipping Sauce
This Easy Chocolate Dipping Sauce is perfect for fruit or other desserts as a drizzle or a dunk!
This is hardly a recipe… but this easy chocolate dipping sauce is a fast way to turn fruit into a dessert (as if it wasn’t already). I even use the microwave! It’s slightly reminiscent of Nutella, but a little bit less hazelnutty and a little more peanutty!…
Egg Nog Creme Brulee
First things first: HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I hope you’re not all online to read my recipe today, but that you’ll keep this one in your back pocket for the next holiday coming up (or your next dinner party. Or weeknight snack.).
Real Talk: I didn’t write this recipe down as I was making it. This week has been a struggle to recover all my thoughts on the matter. I was so proud of the photos that I got a bit sidetracked. But alas, here we are. (But just look at the shine on those babies up there….Thanks Nagi! *affiliate*)…
Butternut Squash Cookies (Pumpkin Cookies)
These fall favorite pumpkin cookies are made with freshly roasted butternut squash puree, perfect for the foreseen canned pumpkin shortage!
These cookies are famous (or should I say…infamous) in my family. Let me tell you a bit about them: basically October 1 every year we decide it’s time for pumpkin cookies. And we make them. And make them. And make them. Through all the cold winter months to keep us warm fat (or something). We have been making them for years from an old church cookbook. It’s pretty easy to remember because it’s mostly “one of everything.” The batch is always a double batch. The icing gets eaten from the bowl sometimes. And they’re always gone very, very quickly.
I traded up in this recipe and made some cookies that were truly next level. The secrets? Use alllll the pumpkin pie spices, instead of just cinnamon. AND: fresh roasted butternut squash purée in place of canned pumpkin.

Porter Peach Crisp
First off, I apologize for falling off the face of the earth for two weeks. A combination of things being busy around here and a couple of recipes not panning out quite in the way I anticipated, led to me falling behind! Hopefully I’ve jumped back on the wagon!
We took a gander to the Porter Peach Festival a couple weeks ago. Porter is a little farm town about 45 minutes outside of Tulsa. Their peaches are famous. In Colorado, it was all about the Palisade Peaches. Here in Oklahoma, I’ve always heard about the infamous Porter Peach. It must be a requirement to grow peaches that your town starts with a P.
Isn’t this basket so darling? We didn’t get to keep it. 🙁

mama marla’s chocolate chip cookies [V]
These chocolate chip cookies will always take me right into my childhood nostalgia!
First of all, you should know: I don’t bake much. But, it does just so happen that this is the first thing I’ve made in the new house that’s been truly worth photographing; what a way to kick off the blog! Who doesn’t like cookies?
