Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

I bought some shelled pistachios to make a version of the Dubai bar several weeks ago, but decided to make some cupcakes instead.

Almond Flour Brownies

I needed a dessert for dinner, I looked quickly and THOUGHT these were lower carb. Big Man lied.

 

 

Banana Tangerine Chocolate Chip Muffins

We had some over-ripe bananas, and I needed to bake. So I made up some banana muffins, with some tangerines and chocolate chips for extra flavor,

Chocolate and Craisin Focaccia

I had been thinking about a chocolate and craisin cookie recipe, but Doug requested chocolate chip cookies after I had already started to plump up some craisins. So I put the craisins in the refrigerator yesterday, and made up a Chocolate and Craisin Focaccia today.

 

Caramel Crunch Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies

I have been looking at this recipe from Baking with Dorie for almost two months. I finallydecided to make it today.

Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I saw a recipe in a book for Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies, and then Googled for options. I  always like Sally's recipes, so I decided to try her version.

Triple Chocolate Scones

It was a long week - I decided to make something chocolate for Emily. I made Triple Chocolate Scones (chocolate scones with chocolate chips and Nutella chocolate icing...)

Chocolate Sourdough Muffins

I fed my sourdough starter last night, so I also made  some chocolate muffins to share with Emily.

 

Almond Flour Chocolate Mint Sables

I wanted to try a 'lower carb' version of my recent Chocolate Sables, so I made an almond flour version.

Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gluten Free)

I was looking for a recipe to use up a bunch of egg yolks. I was also looking for a gluten free recipe. I found an almond flour cookie recipe, which I adapted a bit. (I already had almond flour in the refrigerator.)

Cherry Topped Chocolate Mini Muffins

I bought some tart dried cherries at Costco for Doug for ice cream add ins. He did not appear very enthusiastic - I think he really wanted sweet cherry syrup. So I decided make some mini Cherry Topped Chocolate Sourdough Muffins with part of them.



   

Chocolate Peanut Butter Black Bean Brownies

I wanted a healthy-ish dessert, so I decided to try Chocolate Peanut Butter (Black Bean) Brownies.

Banana Chocolate Chip Sourdough Mini Muffins

Doug bought ripe bananas. From Costco. A couple of days passed.

In Florida, ripe bananas quickly become too ripe. I made Banana Chocolate Chip Sourdough Mini Muffins and Chocolate Banana Chocolate Chip Sourdough Mini Muffins - and the bananas are gone.

Here are the no-cocoa powder added version:

Mini Chocolate Sourdough Muffins

I decided to make some Chocolate Sourdough Muffins - mini of course!



Last night I made up a sponge that I decided this morning to split between these mini muffins and an Overnight Sourdough Bread.
   

Pecan Pie

So it is Pi Day. I thought Doug would like pecan pie, which I have not made in a long while. This version has a bit of bourbon for flavoring, and some chocolate on part of it (for me!)

Chocolate Almond Biscotti (Gluten Free)

I decided to bake this weekend, and felt like making a biscotti. I decided to create a gluten free Chocolate Almond Biscotti to bring to DC with me.

Black Bean Brownies

I felt like baking tonight. After reading a bunch of recipe ideas, I decided I wanted brownies. After reading several brownie recipes, I decided to make my riff on Chocolate Covered Katie's Black Bean Brownies. I've made them a couple of times before, and they are good!

Chocolate Cherry Focaccia

Time for a potluck dessert -- I decided to make another sweet sourdough flatbread. This one is a Chocolate Cherry Focaccia. It uses the about same base dough as my recent Apple Cinnamon Flatbread, but I did not make up the dough the night before.

Sourdough Chocolate Chip Bar Cookies

Doug liked yesterday's Sourdough Chocolate Chip cookies enough that he suggested making a batch to send to Alex. He also suggested making them a bar, so they would pack better. I tweaked the recipe a bit for the bar form.

Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookies

I've been giving Herbert (my young sourdough starter) a bit of a workout. It's hard for me to throw away part of him when I feed him. So with his two-a-day feedings falling on the weekend, I've been baking. These are Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookies.
