At the end of each year I like to look back and revisit some of my old posts, and one thing I always like to do is share a round up of some of my favorite food posts from the year. Everything looks delicious, if I do say so myself, so I had to hard time picking these out, but finally I came up with 16 goodies! I have everything from breakfast to dinner, snacks, appetizers, and of course, dessert. Hope you find something here that you’d like to try for yourself in 2016! Cheers! [Read more…]

The Incredibly Easy Brownie Ice Cream Cake {Guest Post by Tanya at My Fruitful Home}

July 22, 2015 Leave a Comment

Once again it’s time for something sweet! Today we have a yummy guest post from Tanya at My Fruitful Home, and she’s got a combination of two of my favorite things: brownies and ice cream. Yay!

Hello, My name is Tanya and I’m from the blog My Fruitful Home. I love blogging about simple crafts, recipes, and managing a home, I also blog about my daily struggles and joys living with a chronic illness. I love inspiring people!

Who doesn’t love brownies and vanilla ice cream? What’s even better? The two mixed together! My sister and I were visiting my grandparents’ home when we were children. One evening my grandmother decided to bake some brownies. When they cooled they began to crack severely. As she tried to cut them they continued to crumble. She had the brilliant idea of mixing the brownie crumbs with vanilla ice cream! I thought she was genius! That was one of my favorite memories of spending time in the summer with her. She had just created brownie ice cream cake!

I hadn’t had this brownie Ice cream cake since I was a teenager. Now that my kids are teenagers I wanted to make one for them. It’s quite simple and I am all about simple. When my kids tasted it they couldn’t wait to find out what I had put in it. Were they surprised when they found out that there were only two ingredients! So here we go! Are you ready for simple?

Brownie Ice Cream Cake
Ingredients:
1 box brownie mix (any brand)
1 half gallon container of vanilla ice cream

Directions:
Make the brownies as directed on the box. I used a 9 X 13 pan.
Let brownies cool in pan.
Take a fork and turn it upside down, scraping the brownies until they start turning into crumbs.

Continue until all the brownies are small crumbs, but not too fine.
Set the container of ice cream out for about 15 – 20 minutes. It should be a little soupy on top. If it’s still too frozen put it in the microwave on defrost for about 3 minutes.

When it’s the right consistency scoop up heaps of ice cream and put it in the pan with the brownie crumbs.
Take a large spoon and start mixing until the two are mixed well. Take the back of the spoon and smooth out the mixture.
Cover with aluminum foil and stick in freezer for at least two hours.

Cut into slices and enjoy!

Throughout the year I enjoy my share of milkshakes, floats, sundaes, and other yummy ice cream creations. The hot summer weather just gives me an excuse to enjoy it even more! This summer I’m stocking my freezer with Blue Bunny ice cream. They have so many great flavors from classics like Vanilla and Chocolate to fun flavors like Bunny Tracks and Banana Split ice cream, and they have so many fun novelty ice creams! [Read more…]

Waking Up with McCafé + Red Velvet Angel Food Cake Recipe

I’m generally a very happy and cheerful person, but I HATE getting up in the mornings! I always have! On days when I don’t have to wake up at a certain time, I’m good, but when that clock radio jolts me awake in the morning, it’s like one of the worst feelings on earth! To paraphrase what my husband has said, “I definitely need a few minutes to get myself together when I first wake up.” So I take my “few minutes to get myself together” while Noah eats his breakfast and gets ready for school. Then we drive to school, and since I work from home, it is oh-so-tempting to just jump right back in bed after I come home from dropping him off! (And okay…sometimes when there’s nothing pressing to do or I have a migraine or haven’t slept well, I may do just that!) But most days I need to stay up and get things done, and then I need my morning caffeine fix! Enter McCafé!

25 Delicious Must-Make Recipes from 2014

January 4, 2015 2 Comments

Happy New Year! (Again!) As a blogger, it seems to have become quite customary to take the interim period between Christmas and New Year’s Day to look back over the year’s work and then re-share some of the highlights. So I’ve been looking back at everything over the last few days, and today I have a fun round-up of posts for you: my 25 Delicious Must-Make Recipes from 2014!

I can honestly say that I enjoyed making and EATING all of these, so I hope you will check them out and decide to make few of these for yourself (especially the chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes….just saying!)

And as always, I welcome your comments on this and any of the recipe posts featured here, especially on my photos. In 2014, I worked on improving my photo staging and editing, but I was still limited by not having a DSLR camera (not to mention, the lighting was not always ideal!). However, I’m really proud of the improvements I was able to make throughout the year, and I am super excited because I….I mean, Santa, just got me a DSLR camera for Christmas, so I cannot wait to make things look even better here in 2015!
