Chocolate Mint Brownies

October 17, 2018 By Shannah Coe 6 Comments

Chocolate mint brownies combine the two best dessert flavors into one fudgy bar. Once you try these, you will never go back to boxed brownies again.

Chocolate and mint are two quentessential flavors that are just made for each. After I made chocolate peppermint cake mix cookies, I was totally craving some more chocolate desserts with mint flavor. These chocolate mint brownies are the perfect fudgy brownie with just the right touch of mint.

Strawberry Oreo Cake Mix Cookies

October 2, 2015 By Shannah Coe 16 Comments

My daughter has started watching all the youtube videos about baking. It is a girl and her mom baking these ridiculous cakes but she loves it. I love that it has inspired her to want to spend more time in the kitchen. When she asked to bake something recently, I was already brainstorming ideas for the Cooking for the Cure blog hop to raise awareness for Breast Cancer Awareness month. Of course, pink is the signature color for Breast Cancer Awareness so we decided to make strawberry Oreo cake mix cookies.

1 Ingredient Banana Ice Cream

August 18, 2015 By Jenna Shaughnessy 1 Comment

1 Ingredient Banana Ice Cream

I’ve recently cut out all refined sugar from my diet. Once I set my mind to it (and saw the lbs start to drop off!) it was easier than I had initially thought. But, it’s summer, and I would still like to enjoy an ice cream every so often. 
I’ve seen this recipe for 1 ingredient banana ice cream on Pinterest for a while now and have been dying to give it a try. I wasn’t sure that it would really taste like ice cream but BOY was I wrong! It’s also a great way to use up those over-ripe bananas…there’s only so much banana bread you can eat!

This couldn’t be easier to make: You want to use 4 or 5  over-ripe bananas (the browner they are, the sweeter the ice cream will  be!).

Peel them and slice. Place the slices on a plate and freeze overnight. Then, all you have to do is blend them up in  food processor/blender until thick and creamy!

Now, in the spirit of being sharing, I’m going to let you know that I froze my bananas whole with the skins still ON. Don’t do this, they are impossible to peel once they are frozen!! You could peel first, then freeze but I reckon slicing them up first would make the process a whole lot easier.

If you want to serve it right out of the blender, expect a “soft-serve” consistency. To make it a bit more solid, pop in a freezer-proof container and chill for at least 2 hours.

Who knew that pureed frozen bananas were so thick and creamy!? Honestly, if you love ice cream and bananas then you will adore this. It’s Paleo friendly, dairy free, (added) sugar free and a great guilt-free treat for both kids and adults alike. Feeling adventurous? Once you’ve mastered this version, don’t be afraid to experiment! I’m going to add almond butter to my next batch 🙂

Peanut Butter Nutella Rice Krispie Treats

May 29, 2015 By Shannah Coe 9 Comments

I am thrilled to partner with Orajel™ Kids to share my thoughts on childhood tooth health. As always, while this post was sponsored, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

I have a GIANT sweet tooth. Like I think my whole mouth is nothing but sweet teeth because I crave sweets all the time. My children, especially my daughter, definitely inherited my loves of sweets. Now that she also loves to be in the kitchen, we do make a lot of treats together. Right now, her favorite is rice krispie treats but, of course, I had to change them up a bit so we made peanut butter nutella rice krispie treats in addition the regular ones.

Salted Pretzel Ice Cream Bites

May 8, 2015 By Shannah Coe 12 Comments

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Safeway, Inc.. All opinions are 100% mine.

Do you love ice cream? Who doesn’t, right?! I am a huge ice cream fan and haven’t really met many flavors that I don’t like. Anything with peanut butter in it is a winner for sure. I was trying to decide on a fun ice cream treat to make with my daughter and stumbled upon some Edy’s® Peanut Butter Cup Frozen Custard. Now, I could have eaten it alone but we decided it would be fun to use some salted pretzel snack bars to make salted pretzel ice cream bites.

So, it is Monday. Are you struggling like I am? We had a gorgeous weekend here in VA and were fortunate to spend most of it outdoors. Weekends like that make going back to the grind of the office even harder. Maybe this peanut butter nutella donut sandwich will ease the pain…

Three Ingredient Lemon Cake Batter Dip

April 13, 2015 By Shannah Coe 11 Comments

Any time a recipe starts with the phrase “three ingredients”, it makes my heart go pitter patter. I love cooking but I don’t always have the time to make the recipes I want because of the lengthy list of ingredients. Having an arsenal of recipes that don’t require many ingredients, like three ingredient TWIX dip, carrot cake dip or this lemon cake batter dip, makes it easy for me to still make something even when I am short on time.

Carrot Cake Dip

March 26, 2015 By Shannah Coe 5 Comments

I can’t get over the fact that Easter is just over a week away! I am hosting Easter brunch at our house this year so I definitely need to get my butt in gear when it comes to planning a menu. At least I know I have a good resource for Easter recipes to turn to but I am still thinking of different dessert options. I don’t love the time it takes to bake so I am leaning towards something much easier like this three ingredient carrot cake dip.
