Perfect Pot Pie

Remember those cute little frozen pot pies your mom used to buy when you were little? You know, the ones that would always explode out the bottom and they were pretty much the best things ever? Well guess what. We've progressed in our pot pie abilities. Now we have THIS! Holy cow. So flippin good. You'll never want to buy a frozen pot pie ever again. Yes, this takes quite the preparation, but you know what, it's totally worth it.

Whole Wheat Chocolate Chips

So my brother, Dave went to San Diego this past weekend. He asked if I wanted to go and stupidly enough I thought I was too busy with school, so I let the chance slide on by. Dumb decision. However! He did end up bringing back a FANTASTIC Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, so that's a plus I guess :) But guess what? When you make these in Cali, they turn out ridiculously fluffy and gorgeous. When you make em here, ummmm, they're not as fluffy, but still just as delicious!!

3/4 C Unsalted Butter
1 C Sugar
1 C Light Brown Sugar
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla
... 2 eggs
2 C sifted Whole Wheat Flour (sift the flour first, then measure it out)
1 C Flour
3/4 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Salt
2 C Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips

Pre-heat oven to 375. Cream butter & sugar. Mix in vanilla & eggs. Combine flours, baking soda & salt. Gradually blend flour mix into butter mix. Fold in chocolate chips and drop onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake 8-10 min. Let cool for 2 seconds, scald your mouth with the scrumptious melty, gooey, cookie goodness, and enjoy :)

Homemade Thin Mints

Remember how I mentioned Pinterest? Ya, well I saw something I wanted to try again :) Thin Mints! They're one of the best things the Girl Scouts bring around, so I thought, why can't I make em! So when I came home for Spring Break, my good friend, Austin and I tried it out :) Guess what? They turned out pretty good! Not exactly like the real deal, but good enough for a first try I think :)

Cream Puffs

Cream Puffs are divine, am I right? Of course ;) Homemade Cream Puffs though? They should be sin. I could eat a billion of these. Sadly, I don't have the recipe yet... But I will very soon! Fear not :)

Homemade Butterfingers

Meet my real life anime friend. Her eyes are huge and gorgeous, but that's not what we're here to talk about! What is she holding? Any guesses? Butterfingers. But not ones you can buy at the store. Homemade. How many ingredients? 3. Think I'm lying? I'm not. Go here, make them, eat them, die of happiness.

Terryaki Chicken

So these people that I'm related to are quite amazing and they make amazing food. When they gave me this recipe, I had to try it. I was NOT disappointed one bit. Quite the opposite actually :) Here's all you gotta do. Get some chicken breasts, marinate them in 1 cup Soy Sauce + 1 TBS sugar for 15-20 min. Fry em', grill em', whatever you want to do to em', then devour!! Oh. so. good.

Nutella Cookies

I've been introduced to Pinterest. I pinned my first pin. I'm addicted. And what is my biggest board? The food one of course! ;) So I decided to finally make something off of it :) Nutella Cookies! If you're wondering if they were super good, the answer is yes. However, it was a very dry mix, so don't freak out when you make it :)
