This Caramel Apple Crisp has it all: tender baked apples, easy homemade caramel, and a flavor-packed oat streusel topping! It pulls out all the (super flavorful) stops and still requires just a fraction of the time and effort of traditional apple pie. Sure, you’ve had Apple Crisp before, and it was probably lovely. But were…

Salted Caramel Apple Upside Down Cake
I’m not going to be able to hand out candy tonight because I’ll be in the motherland (AKA South Jersey) celebrating my dad’s very spooky birthday, which will be nice but alsooo a bit of a bummer because I’m totally overzealous about all things Halloween-related, and because I know that there won’t be any Halloween candy…
Salted Caramel S’more Dip with Cinnamon Sugar Chips
Hold on to your sweet tooth, because this dip is all dressed up and ready to party. James– being the resident dessert-fiend-in-chief that he is– has been asking me to make something sugary for, gosh, probably two months now. But since I’m selfish and prefer salty foods usually inspired by more savory ideas, I just finally got around…
Nutella Pumpkin Samoa Cookies
Happy Halloweekend! I know we’re excited about the here-and-now holiday, but I want to throw it back for just a second. Long, long ago, in the fabulous, fabled era of the nineteen-nineties, I was a young girl who had a vast and varied collection of beanie babies, a stockpile of gel pens, a dozen audio cassettes, three Lisa Frank folders, two tamagotchis,…
Easy Salted Caramel Molten Lava Cakes
Do you remember those classroom motivational posters? You know what I’m talking about– the ones that read “Believe And You Will Succeed,” or “If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It,” or some other feel-good phrase that made us elementary-aged children super self-assured. Well, my biggest life goal at that age was to be a dinosaur…
Salted Caramel Crunch Cookies
I realize that this is the second post in a row that has “Crunch” in the title. But honestly, who doesn’t want a crunchy exterior surrounding their chicken, or some crunchy mix-ins in their cookie dough? After all, if flavor is the leading role, then texture is the director. Did you know that texture actually largely…
Salted Caramel Apple Cheesecake with Apple Roses
I worked on this all day and night just to be sure I could get it to you today. Why? Because it would be a crime to not give you a recipe for something this good as soon as humanly possible. So here we are. It’s 9AM as I write this and I’m on my fourth…
Maple Bourbon Brown Butter Peach Pie
I’m firmly convinced that there is no better dessert in this world than Maple Bourbon Brown Butter Peach Pie. Yes, I said it. I, the fruit skeptic, the haphazard baker, the Thanksgiving-dessert-skipping monster (seriously, who turns down a slice of warm apple pie?!) made this pie twice in one week. It was just that delicious. And…
Salted and Malted Nutella Caramel Cookies
There are days when everything goes perfectly in my kitchen– when I’m surprised at how easily a recipe has come together, there are no crazy set-backs, the food tastes great and is insanely photogenic, and the sun has decided to be on my side for the day and the natural lighting is perfect. Those days…
