One of my favorite gift ideas to give during the holiday season is homemade goodies. There are so many options of sweet treats to make, but buckeyes are a classic homemade sweet treat that my mom has made during the holidays for as long as I can remember. I added my own twist on this recipe by adding a little flaky salt on top to balance out the richness of the buckeyes to make them even more irresistible. This recipe for salted buckeyes is one that you are going to want to make every single year.

If you are finding yourself knee deep in summer fruit like cherries and peaches and can’t eat them fast enough before they all go bad, then I have a solution for you. A summer crumble is the best way to use up any fruit that you have on hand and it is always a crowd pleaser. I tend to get excited and overbuy all of the fruit in the summer and end up with a handful of fruit that ripens too quickly on me. Instead of letting it go to waste, I like to make a yummy dessert out of them instead. This recipe for a cherry peach crumble is truly summer in a bowl, especially topped off with a little vanilla ice cream.

Honey is a pantry staple at our house and while it’s delicious on toast, in oatmeal, yogurt bowls and even dressings, I am slightly obsessed with honey in ice cream. My husband recently worked in Scotland for a few months and he couldn’t stop talking about an ice cream he had there with real bits of honeycomb in it. I knew I had to try a version myself and I am so glad that I did. Homemade ice cream is one of my favorite things to make all summer long and this recipe did not disappoint. This recipe for real deal honeycomb ice cream is for all of my honey lovers out there.

6-Ingredient Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies

Is there anything better than the smell of fresh cookies wafting through the house on any given day? It immediately gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling and a sense of comfort. There is just something about a homemade cookie that just gives me all of the cozy vibes. While I don’t consider myself an avid baker, I do have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to basic baking like cookies, banana breads, muffins, etc. You won’t find me doing anything elaborate in the baking department, but what I do bake is usually pretty darn tasty. For me, a cookie that is irresistible is one that has a little sweet and salty aspect to it. Whether that means it is sprinkled with a little sea salt on top, or has some savory element mixed into the cookie, I just find it to be the perfect cookie combo. That’s why I created these 6-ingredient peanut butter pretzel chocolate chip cookies that combine everything I adore about cookies into one recipe.
