With New Year’s Eve drawing near, I started flipping through photos from 2012 to smile at the year’s fun memories. As I scrolled through the albums, I laughed… All of my pictures were of food! (Well okay, except for the summer vacation to Kauai. And the father-daughter trip to Arizona.)
So I can’t exactly share very many memories, seeing as I barely remember lots of them, but I can relive a few of my favorite recipes instead!
cookies
#1: gluten-free nutella cookies
#3: salted chocolate balsamic cookies
#4: baked churros
(and the apple pie it came from!)
honorable mention: peanut butter and nutella popcorn balls
cakes & cupcakes
#1: German chocolate and lemon cupcakes
#2: orange poppy seed bundt cake
#3: strawberry lemon bundt cake
#5: berry-surprised mini lemon cupcakes
honorable mention: funfetti Christmas cupcakes
Although I have a rather large sweet tooth, I do have a few favorite recipes that don’t fall under the “dessert” category… So stay tuned!
What a good cook year! This recipe recap just open my apetite 😀
Happy New Year.
Kisses

Thank you! I had the same problem when I wrote this post; I wanted to go straight into my kitchen and bake everything all over again!
Happy New Year to you too!
Okay… that strawberry lemon bundt cake looks TO DIE FOR!!! And the balsamic salted chocolate cookies… pinning for sure! Good idea on the round up!
Thanks! I could never eat just one piece of the strawberry lemon bundt cake… Always at least two, sometimes three! I justified it by telling myself it was healthy from the two fruits inside. Maybe?
salted chocolate balsamic cookies? wowza:-) Looks like you had a yummy year!
I definitely did! Probably my best baking year yet… And I’m hoping 2013 brings even more delicious desserts!
Oh I am craving a 10 AM sugar fix now…just looking at these yummy pictures! I LOVE lemony treats too…and I am bookmarking that recipe for strawberry lemon bundt!!
Aww thank you! I love photographing my food (probably a little too much!). I hope you enjoy the cake, once strawberry season rolls around!
That German chocolate cupcake is gorgeous!! YUMM!
Thanks!! I was excited when they ended up looking so pretty. But they definitely didn’t last very long! ;]
Thanks for this! I’ll have to make the churros for the boy sometime 😉
My pleasure! My brother and his friend made them a few nights ago, and they ate every last one! So hopefully your boy will enjoy them as much as my brother did.
I’m so stoked the make those churros. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! They seem to get eaten fairly quickly in our family, so I hope you enjoy them too!
Oh my word! What a lot of yumminess on one page…! Those salted choc cookies look AMAZING, and I have always wanted to try making churros but was put off by deep frying – this looks more achievable by far. Fabulous stuff. 🙂
Thank you! I fried donuts once, very early in this blog’s career. It was fun, but I was pretty scared of burning myself! I was so excited that the churros turned just as well when I baked them instead. And I can’t get enough of the salt + chocolate combination either!
Thank you for stopping by my blog, but most of all for introducing me to yours! What brilliant inspriation, now… what to try first??
My pleasure!! As for desserts, I’d definitely suggest the nutella cookies, German chocolate/lemon combo cupcakes, or orange poppy seed bundt cake. They’re all fairly easy and disappear faster than you can make them!
