2021 Desserts and Snacks - January and February

Week 1: Cranberry and White Chocolate Cake

This was such a tasty and easy recipe to start off the year. I loved the tart cranberries and extra sweet white chocolate chunks scattered through this simple cake. Arthur also loved it!

Week 2: Peanut Butter Cookie Gooey Bars

Oh so incredibly good! Next time I should use less condensed milk (just a tad too much), but I loved the balance between peanut butter and chocolate flavor.

Week 3: Earl Grey Tea Bread

Another great recipe! I have some ideas of how to tweak it (smaller prune pieces for one), but this was great as is toasted with a bit of butter and a cup of tea.

Week 4: Sicilian Apple Cake

I liked the taste of this one, but it just didn’t really hit for me. For one, I dislike raisins and unfortunately the ones of the top got really hard. the cake portion didn’t bake like I wanted it to.

Week 5: Inside Out S’mores Bars

These were amazing! i was afraid that these would be too sweet, but they have a great balance of flavors. Definitely will make these again.

Week 6: Baked Banana Oatmeal

Meh. This tasted okay (make sure to drizzle it with extra maple syrup), but I wasn’t wowed at all.
