Yesterday all I wanted in my life was cheesecake. I thought about it all day, all night, and I’m pretty sure I dreamt about cheesecake. Now you may be thinking to yourself, “Tara is drunk, that picture does not look like cheesecake” AND YOU’D BE RIGHT. Wait…no, not about the drunk part, just that it’s not a […]
I made these little beauties at work about a week ago for a dinner and there were 2 left, so I thought I’d take some pikchas for you vultures and share a recipe. I wanted to make something like the caramel nut tarts from Bouchon Bakery (and you can find the recipe here), but individual […]
I seemed to have a large abundance of egg whites hanging out in my fridge, and just the right amount of almond flour hiding in my cupboard. I knew it was time. Time to tackle macarons again. But what kind shall I make?!?! I still had two little bottles of yuzu juice, and thought to […]
So once again, it has been a very long time since I’ve posted anything. Even though I’ve been baking up a storm! I switched jobs once again, and am supremely happy where I am now. I think I’ll start bringing my camera to work so I can post more frequently about tasty delicious things. Omnom. […]
Hello friends! I’m not a big fudge fan, but something made me want to make this fudge. And you know what? I’m glad I did. This one has peanut butter. And caramel.

Today I had a day off. Today I made snickers, sort of. Ohmyholycrap they are good. They basically consist of a peanut butter nougat, caramel, and peanuts. But uhhh…I didn’t have any peanuts. So I may or may not have used pecans? And it’s delicious? Even with the peanut butter nougat? Yes. Yes it is. […]
I woke up this morning feeling awesome. It was one of those perfect sleeps. I love those, especially on days off. I could tell it was going to be a productive day. Perfect moods can only call for one thing: baking. I made me some cookies while listening to awesome music. I love 8tracks so […]
I noticed there was a big ol’ container of 38% cream in the fridge left from Christmas, and I decided that like a productive human being I should probably use that before it goes bad. What better dessert to make with heavy cream than creme brulee? I know I know, I’m so smart. Also, I […]
