Icebox Strawberry Pie

Icebox Strawberry Pie is one of the most refreshing and satisfying summer pies. Since it is reaching the 90's here in Phoenix, I decided to whip this up for my family in individual portions. A buttery graham cracker crust with hints of cinnamon complements the strawberries perfectly. Only the freshest strawberries will do, and in strawberry season, they are not hard to come by! These plump, juicy and sweet strawberries are the perfect ending to a barbecue (or any meal for that matter!). The freshly whipped cream tops off the pie, which adds a touch of creaminess and decadence. 

Call and order yours today! These can be made in individual servings or whole pies. 

Brownie Pie

Brownies + Pie = Brownie Pie. Who doesn't love a good brownie? How can you make it outrageous? Make it into a pie with a graham cracker crust topped off with chocolate ganache. 

Then add vanilla ice cream! The center of the pie is slightly gooey, and has an insane deep chocolate flavor. The pie melts in your mouth and the graham cracker crust gives you a bit of crunch to your bite. This can also be topped with homemade marshmallow fluff and then chocolate ganache to make a s'more pie...which takes this dessert to another level. It will remind you of those summer camp outs when you roasted marshmallows over the fire with a grown-up chocolate fix.

Deep Chocolate Cupcakes with Marshmallow Creme Filling Topped with Dark Chocolate Ganache

A client needed cupcakes for her son's soccer team party. I immediately thought of these cupcakes - a rich dark chocolate cake base filled with a buttery marshmallow cream topped off with a dark chocolate ganache and three marshmallow stripes across the top which matched the team jerseys. She purchased three dozen cupcakes with the plan to have some left over for dessert that night. My client informed me that the cupcakes were all eaten within five minutes not only by the boys, but the coaches and parents as well! 

Take a peak inside this beauty! The marshmallow filling is creamy, buttery, and delicious. The chocolate cupcake is moist with a deep chocolate flavor that is subtly sweet which plays off of the marshmallow filling. This cupcake is not only a client favorite, but a family favorite as well.

Just look at that cupcake! Don't you want a bite? I know I do.

Snickerdoodles are one of my favorite cookies. I love their soft and chewy bites. Snickerdoodles are the type of cookie that you cannot eat just one of, and if you happen to have a plateful, well, let's just say there won't be any left when you get up. I recently served these at a wedding shower, and they were gone in minutes! These were a crowd favorite with their subtle hint of cinnamon and sugar and slight tang of the cream of tartar.
