Berry season is here! And it would be a shame to let all those pretty, organic berries go to waste. One of my all time favorite cookies is the raspberry almond thumbprint. Traditionally, they are made with a sugary raspberry jam, and lots of flour, butter and sugar. But we aren’t traditional over here, are we?
I’ve made many brownies in my life. I used to make them from the box growing up, but these days, I’m a bit more aware of what I eat. The frankeningredients in those Betty Crocker or Duncan brownies are pretty freaking scary. But my favorite type of brownie is one that is super fudgey. You know what I’m talking about.

I was a girl scout growing up (any Girl Scouts in the house holla!) and I used to peddle cookies every year like all the others. These days, I wouldn’t dare eat those things as they contain harmful ingredients such as food dyes, high fructose corn syrup, and emulsifiers.

She shares my affinity for peanut butter and chocolate, so we quickly became friends!

I especially enjoy these because the are A) Simple to make B) Give you SO much return for the little effort put in and C) Only have 4 ingredients, and ones that you most likely have around the house already.
Raspberries and chocolate. You just can’t go wrong. And this vegan and gluten free raspberry chocolate recipe came just in time for the holidays. Okay, so it’s not traditional. But I’m sure the pecan pie won’t mind the company. I mean-raspberries are just so darn pretty.
It’s November, so it means all thing pumpkin, y’all. And I’m on a mission. I’m going to make as many pumpkin treats as humanly possible in order to convince my English husband that pumpkin is exciting. It turns out that the hoopla over pumpkin treats is shared only by Americans.

Goji berries and chocolate are a delicious duo. I mean- not as orgasmic as peanut butter and chocolate, but pretty darn close. That’s why I created this goji berry and chocolate “cheesecake”.
Sometimes in life, failure leads to even greater success. Just like these dark chocolate power cups! I was experimenting with a power bar recipe, and both trays I made just wouldn’t hold together. I was left with a crumbled mess, but dang it tasted SO good. So what did I do? Whipped up some of my homemade dark chocolate and mixed it all together and made these little guys.
As many of you know I have a HUGE sweet tooth. But no guilt here, amigos. Having a sweet tooth isn’t a bad thing, nor does it mean you have to eat processed ingredients filled with sugar. No sir, I’ll have none of that.
If you keep up with my blog then you know I have an obsession with all things peanut butter and chocolate. That’s why when I found this recipe from my friend and fellow health coach, Carrie Sink, I just had to share it with you!
Introducing a healthy chocolate chip cookie dough! I came up with this recipe after trying something called an “Under Baked Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough” at a pub I visited in Scotland. Seeing as I’m a firm believer of “a little bit of what you fancy does you good”,
It’s a well known fact that dark chocolate + peanut butter = DELICIOUSNESS. But dark chocolate and peanut butter with loads of processed ingredients that you can’t pronounce? No thank you. This is why I’ll pass on the Reeses, thankyouverymuch.
I love dark chocolate. If someone gave me the ultimatum to go without hot water or dark chocolate, I think I would probably go without hot showers for the rest of my life. As much as I love dark chocolate, I equally disdain all of the artificial ingredients put into many of the store- bought brands such as high fructose corn syrup, soy lecithin, food dyes, “natural” flavoring, etc. Not to mention many well known food companies procure their chocolate in a not- so- ethical manner.
Peanut Butter. Chocolate. I really don’t think it gets much better than this. For those of you who have a sweet tooth like me, having healthy dessert options on hand means you are less likely to eat unhealthy sweets.
