Oh my kids. They want bananas. I buy bananas. They don't eat bananas ... and I end up with more overripe bananas. I needed to find yet another recipe to make and decided to give these chocolate chip banana bars a try. They smelled amazing and looked so good. My daughter enjoyed them for breakfast,… Continue reading Chocolate Chip Banana Bars
I'm excited to kick off #Choctoberfest 2020 with this recipe for Rocky Road Bars. This is my 5th year participating in this fun blogger event. I love chocolate and this is the perfect event for me. These bars were so good. They are packed with marshmallows, peanut butter and chocolate. They're also no-bake bars ...… Continue reading Rocky Road Bars
I had some blueberries and strawberries that needed to be used up and what better way to do that than make some delicious dessert bars. I'm sure I've mentioned it before that my kids go in spurts with eating fresh fruit. Sometimes it's gone in days and other times, I'm looking for ways to use… Continue reading Berry Crumble Bars
Yes, I know....another dessert recipe. Baking is a stress reliever for me, so I've been do a lot of baking. My family is loving it, but it's not good for my waistline. I'm trying to focus on making things that I don't like, so I'm not tempted. Lately, I've noticed if I eat peanuts or… Continue reading Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
My kids have been asking for rice krispie treats and I keep forgetting to grab a box when I'm grocery shopping. My family is not big cereal eaters so it's something I don't always have on hand. I did recently pick up a big box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch at Costco and wondered if that… Continue reading Cinnamon Toast Crunch Bars

As I begin to reflect on the last 10 years of blogging, it's crazy how many recipes I've made and shared with you all. I decide as part of my celebration, I would go back to some of my original recipes and make them again. I forgot how amazing these s'mores cookie bars are! They… Continue reading S’mores Cookie Bars
Once again, I found myself with over-ripe bananas and was looking for a way to use them up. With the craziness of spring sports starting, our work schedules, my school board campaign getting underway, I haven't had much free time to spend in the kitchen. I knew I had to find a quick and easy… Continue reading Chocolate Chunk Banana Bars
I was in the mood to do some baking and wanted to use up what I had in my house. I had bought some apples at the grocery store the other week and it was a mistake. They weren't crisp and a little mealy....so not great for eating. I decided I would use them to… Continue reading Apple Crisp Bars
Last week, my company had their holiday luncheon and I always look for a new recipe to make and came across this recipe for caramel chocolate shortbread. I love Twix bars and this totally reminded me of them...though better since I accidentally browned the butter while making caramel. It really amp'd up the flavor and… Continue reading Caramel Chocolate Shortbread
