Last year I spent weeks researching ice cream makers. I really wanted to make ice cream at home but I was unhappy with my research outcome. It seemed that in order to have a machine that made great ice cream I was going to fork over quiet a few bucks. It just didn't seem like a great idea to me since it's such a seasonal item. Just shortly after I discovered you could make some really yummy yet ... [ read more... ]

Lemon-Lime Cheesecake Cupcakes
One of my favorite things about baking, is proving myself wrong over and over. I know, weird right? But it's true. I love to break my own boundaries, discover new things, and realize that maybe I actually do love that flavor I've always said I don't like at all…wait did I just admit to behaving like a picky toddler? Let's take our citrus friends lemon and lime for example, the BFF's of ... [ read more... ]

Spring Velvet Butterfly Cookie Cake
Recently we celebrated two little birthdays in the Maison De Miller (that's fancy for our house). M & B, my little twinies turned five. Yes, five. As in we're going off to kindergarten and totally shedding the last bit of baby we have, even if you desperately tug and plead mom, it's happening. Sigh. Birthdays are so bittersweet as moms are they not? We plan these parties and events and celebrate ... [ read more... ]

Vanilla Butter Cake
Have I ever told you I have a cake phobia - it's true, I do. Which may seem slightly insane considering my official job title is "sprinkle tosser" or ya know baker, but it's true...I really dislike making cakes or I did. Need proof? Head on over to the cakes page, you might hear a cricket or two. But why the cake phobia? Well...it all started with (cue music and thought bubble)... My entire ... [ read more... ]

Red Velvet Cream Cheese Cupcakes
Some times you just have to break rules. Like posting classic Red Velvet Cream Cheese Cupcakes a few weeks after Valentine's day. Such a rebel I tell ya. Anywho, one of the things I tend to be awful about it getting "basics" posted to the blog - because I always over think them! I'm over here thinking what crazy new idea I can make next and you guys are like hello...we need sugar cookies, ... [ read more... ]

Strawberry Walnut Pancakes With Strawberry Syrup
Happy National Pancake Day!!! And if you're reading this and it's no longer national pancake day, then happy pancake day to you anyway! Because seriously, everyday should be pancake day. I mean am I right or am I right... My kids would fully support me making pancakes everyday. As I've shared many times before, their pretty much pancake nuts. So I'm always looking for a fun new way to mix up ... [ read more... ]
