Chocolate – Cream cheese Letter Shaped Ice Box Cake: Happy Birthday To My Shai

My daughter turned 12 this year and in the Jewish religion it signifies a special age where a girl becomes a young independent woman. So although she’s not really independent yet (and I’m ok with it – don’t get me wrong), I though the occasion calls for a special cake. I thought quite a few […]

Chocolate Filled Baked Doughnut Bites

When I was […]

Sounds hectic? Well, […]
