Baked Eggs (aka Hard Boiled Eggs)

There is nothing fancy about these eggs. In fact, this really isn't even a recipe, more of a handy tip. I had heard of making "hard boiled eggs" in the oven before but hadn't given it a try till now. I've struggled with making hard boiled eggs in the past. It was always a hassle to watch the pot till it started boiling to make sure they were done for just the perfect amount of time, and even when they seemed to be cooked well I had issues peeling them. With these eggs, you just put them in the oven and set the timer. Done.
 No waiting around. I found that the eggs were much easier to peel this way also. I mean, look how pretty those eggs are! I haven't peeled an egg that smooth in a long, long time. These are great to keep around for snacks, lunches, etc. The eggs did come out of the oven a little speckled with brown spots so if you are dying these and don't want speckles on your eggs, that may be something to keep in mind. Otherwise, these are exactly the same as hard boiled eggs, only easier to make.

Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (Re-post with a picture )

Does this dessert sound familiar to you?  I originally posted it last Summer, but didn't have a picture at the time.  I'm excited to be able to post this picture now so you can see how yummy it looks!  I first had this pudding at a BBQ last Summer.  One bite and I was hooked.  This fabulous pudding sits on top of a layer of bananas and is sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Does it get any better than that?  Banana pudding didn't used to be something I craved, but it definitely is now.  It is Heavenly!  Also, it's very easy to make.  So try it out sometime.  I bet you'll become a banana pudding fan too.

Royal Icing for Sugar Cookies

While I love my Scrumptious Sugar Cookie frosting , Royal Icing is the way to go for decorated cookies that harden enough to stack and package. It definitely takes more time and patience, but the end result is so satisfying! You can make such fun cookies without having to worry about the frosting coming off.  Royal Icing can get super hard, and while this is perfect for building Gingerbread Houses, it’s not so great when you want to actually eat the cookie. Not to worry though- adding in a little corn syrup helps the icing dry firm without being overly hard.  I also like to add in my favorite butter vanilla emulsion to make the icing extra yummy, cause at the end of the day it’s not enough to just look pretty!  There are a few different ways to make Royal Icing. My favorite method is using Meringue Powder. If you can’t find this or don’t want to buy it, you can use egg whites instead. Or, if you’re in a pinch you can make some with just powdered sugar and water. You can find some recip

Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles

If you try one new cookie recipe this Fall, let it be this one!! I'm not kidding when I say that this is  one of the best cookies I've ever made.  They've already received rave reviews and comments such as, "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"  These are not your average snickerdoodle, not that I have anything against the traditional ones, they are made with browned butter and extra brown sugar for a rich caramel taste.  But wait, it also has a caramel center! And of course that classic chewy texture with a cinnamon/sugar coating.  I could eat these every single day. They are SO GOOD you guys!
