Cherries and Cream Dessert Squares ~ No Bake!

ByMariel

I’ve been on a real cherry-kick lately! Mmmm…. I love how bold, flavorful, and summery they are. You know what else I love? An easy dessert. And, THIS recipe for Cherries and Cream Dessert Squares is exactly that. I’ve been trying to condense my cookbook cupboard. It’s totally overflowing and the shelves are about to fall. It’s hard to get rid of any cookbooks without skimming through each one for potential great recipes. I had this honkin Pillsbury cookbook, taking up more than it’s fair share of space. And, luckily I found this little gem and several more in there, before I let it go. I changed the amounts on several things to suit me. Like, I love an extra thick graham cracker crust, so… more crust. My cherries weren’t spreading across the whole pan, so more cherries. My bag of marshmallows overflowed into the bowl, so extra marshmallows. Things like that, but all good things! Oh, and the cherry on top? These things require no baking. Suh-weet!

Raspberry Lemon Bread with Glaze (she: Zainab)

ByZainab

Hello OSSS friends…it’s Zainab from Blahnik Baker here again to share with you a delicious, sweet, raspberry lemon bread recipe.
This raspberry lemon bread is made with white whole wheat flour and hazelnut flour. The nutty flavor and texture of hazelnuts are incredible with fresh raspberries. The amount of oil used is less than most recipes out there and this uses Greek yogurt for added moisture. This summer bread is everything a great sweet bread should be; so moist, crumbly and delicious. The lemon glaze to go with it is just the perfect added tang.

Gooey Golden Grahams & Chex Mix Recipe… Warning- Highly Addicting! (she: Jamie)

ByJamie S.

Hi! It’s Jamie visiting from Prepared Housewives, here to share with you one of the most addictive snacks EVER!

Before you even begin making this, you need to think of a few friends you want to fatten up and plan to bring them some, because if you don’t, you might suddenly find yourself locked in your closet with the entire bowl (it’s happened before).

Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins

ByMariel

Alright, so I was thinking ‘summer.’ Then, I was thinking ‘food.’ Then I was thinking ‘nachos… the greasy gas station kind.’ Then I went and changed a diaper, did a load of laundry, and buzzed the heads of two children. Then I remembered what I was supposed to be thinking about… a post for you! Something summer, easy, kid-friendly… how about Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins?? I’ve had this recipe saved in an old Taste of Home magazine for a while now, so who better to share the deliciousness with than you? I looooooove raspberries. Love. And, these were delicious! Perfect for a summer breakfast.

Hello, dear friends! This is Maria from Shopgirl visiting again, and I have another recipe to share with you today! Since summer is officially here, it’s time for all those delicious summer desserts! Nothing says summer dessert to me like baking with fresh fruit. I look forward to ripe, juicy berries and wonderfully fragrant peaches all year! This blackberry cobbler is a great choice for a quick and easy, but utterly delicious summer dessert. You are definitely going to want to make this, because it is like summer in a bite (especially topped with a big scoop of ice-cream, of course).

Coconut Lemon Cupcakes with Raspberry Frosting (she: Zainab)

ByZainab

Hello again!! Zainab here from Blahnik Baker. I am so happy to be back to share a recipe with you guys since it’s been a while! These coconut lemon cupcakes with raspberry frosting were the talk of our last BBQ and I couldn’t wait to bring them to you hoping you will give them a try!
Since it is officially summer now (yay!!!), how is your summer going? I hope you are enjoying it! I decided this summer to try to do new things and I’ve been exploring our city in new ways. No more malls and shopping trips to run away from the heat. Instead, we are doing more outdoor activities like visiting the zoo that don’t always require an entire day out in the sun. Or visiting a nearby waterfall park that will involve playing in the water to cool down. What are some of your summer plans? Any bucket list activities?
We are also attending a lot of barbeques and picnics with friends and family. For some reason, everyone seems to be throwing a picnic but it’s fun to attend these parties especially to catch up with people you haven’t seen in a while. Being the baker in the family, I am always bringing some sort of baked treat and these cupcakes were my last creation.

No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies (she: Samantha)

BySamantha

Hi, y’all! It’s Samantha from Five Heart Home, and I’m happy to be back today with a no-bake cookie treat that will curb that cookie craving with nary an oven required!

There are still a couple of weeks to go before the official first day of summer, but across many parts of the country, summer temps are already here to stay. I don’t know about you, but the last thing I feel like doing when it’s boiling outside is turning on the oven. The A/C is already working hard enough! That’s why this is the time of year that you’ll find my family eating refreshing salads, dinners from the grill, and — when that sweet tooth acts up — no-bake desserts!

Strawberry Pretzel Popsicles (she: Allie)

ByAllie

Hello again, friends! Allie here, from Baking a Moment, to share this really fun, easy, and delicious recipe for summertime!

Promise me you won’t think I’m weird, or like a big food dummy, but honestly? I never even heard of that Strawberry Pretzel Salad thing until a year or two ago. I do not know how I made it through (ahem) thirty-mumble-mumble years without this ever crossing my radar. Especially considering food is my life. For reals. Like, sometimes I feel like it’s all I think about.

And, when I first started seeing it on Pinterest and stuff I thought it sounded kinda gross. I mean, sweet cream cheese and strawberries, yes. But pretzels? Not so sure. But here’s how the idea for strawberry pretzel popsicles was born:

Disney World's Tongan Toast

Disney World’s Tongan Toast ~ Knock-off!

ByMariel

I haven’t been to Disney World since I was a little girl. I actually have a funny memory from being there too. I was probably in 7th grade and decided I needed to trim my own bangs. Big mistake. I cut a little off, crooked. Tried to fix it, crooked. Kept cutting and cutting, until they ended up being insanely mega-nerd short. Not to mention, they were probably an inch thick. That beautiful moment of my life fell right during our family vacation where I had to be seen by thousands of people and be the subject of dozens of my mom’s photos. I was super grumpy about it. Probably deserved a big kick in the butt… being grumpy at Disney World. Who does that?

Well, I can’t remember if I ever had the Tongan Toast, but I’m sure if I had, I might have been a little more pleasant, cause this stuff is awesome!
