Chewy Chocolate Espresso Cookies

Posted on December 21, 2023December 21, 2023by wallflourgirl

Rich notes of espresso pair perfectly with chocolate in this thin, chewy-edged cookie that blends sophistication with pure indulgence. Best enjoyed with a glass of milk (or coffee)!

Every once in a while, a recipe comes along that is so mind-blowingly scrumdiddlyumptious, it’s worth dragging yourself out of the Blogging Bogs of Banishment to post about it. This, my friends, is one of those awesome recipes.

Though I’ve never been a fan of coffee (the drink), I grew up in a household where coffee (the flavor) was the stuff of dessert legend. My grandma in particular was the Matriarch of … Read more

Caramel Coffee Toffee Sticky Pudding Brownies

Posted on May 3, 2016December 29, 2020by wallflourgirl

Happy Teachers’ Appreciation Week, everyone!

It’s crazy how much you take for granted until you’re the one standing in front of the classroom–that, and the amount of baking that you end up doing for your students in any given school term because you genuinely love them and want them to be happy human beings, even if they sometimes ask you questions whose answers are on the syllabus and expect responses when they email you 5 hours before a paper is due. I guess it’s good practice for the 40-kid family I plan on having someday.

Facetiousness aside, though, I owe … Read more

Mini Samoas Sticky Banoffee Cake Donuts {+ topwithcinnamon cookbook giveaway}

Posted on February 10, 2015December 29, 2020by wallflourgirl

Looking for a special, last-minute way to say “I love you” this Valentine’s Day? Check out my selection of baked goods and other treats on Etsy!

All food bloggers have their obsessions. The lucky ones are obsessed with things like kale, quinoa, and detox smoothies made from a combination of leafy things that should never be placed in a blender together.

What about me? I’m obsessed with donuts, toffee, coconut, salted caramel, dates, coffee, and Top with Cinnamon. So basically, everything that is antithetical to what kale stands for. And today I’m ready to share my obsessions with all … Read more

Deep-Dish Tiramisu Pie with Coffee Crunch Crumble

Posted on November 11, 2014December 29, 2020by wallflourgirl

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy…

But here’s my pie–follow me maybe?

I love food festivals for many many good reasons, the best of which are 1) food, 2) eating, and 3) more food. In close fourth comes the company: there’s something oddly liberating about connecting with new people through the miracle of face-stuffing, ith delicious globs of cream dribbling down the side of your face as you and the stranger standing next to you rave over the ah-MAY-zing pie you both just tried.

Do you love coffee too? you ask. Cream pies are the best, right?… Read more

Coffee Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Cupcakes with Kahlua Biscoff Frosting

Posted on May 7, 2014December 29, 2020by wallflourgirl

Every once in a while, a truly remarkable event happens that reminds you appreciate in life. The day I met K was one such moment. In reality, the first time we met was at the Edible Book Festival at our school’s library, though I wouldn’t have recognized her face with all the nice folks streaming in and out of the rotunda. We reconnected after K entered my From My Kitchen to Yours care package giveaway–she found my blog through cards I had been giving out at the festival and, by some crazy chance, decided to start reading. Who says … Read more

Gingerbread Biscoff Coffee Cupcakes

Posted on April 23, 2014December 29, 2020by wallflourgirl

Congrats to Kathlene and Ivy for winning two AWESOME personalized care packages in last week’s giveaway! I can’t wait to create an epic assortment of goodies for you both!

I really dislike chocolate cupcakes.

Wait, say what?

It’s funny how we all define the good things in life so differently. Back when kids used to bring boxes of assorted cupcakes to celebrate their birthday, I loved to ogle (okay, creepy) and watch each student make the all-important decision of which type of cupcake to take–chocolate with vanilla frosting?

The Best Bananas Foster Toffee Coffee Crunch Cake

Posted on January 16, 2014April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

One of the things I love most about blogging is ~~licking the bowl afterwards~~ having the chance to sit down and tell a story. Food blogging in particular trains us to write good content: it gives you brain fuel (i.e. cake), patience (actually waiting for your cake to cool completely before frosting it), creativity (transforming your 5th over-crumbly cake into gorgeous cake balls), and really good storytelling skills (explaining to your parents the philosophical implications of writing your baking blog when you really should be reading Children’s Literature: A Reader’s History from Aesop to Harry Potter).

As I slipped … Read more

The Very BEST Tiramisu–America’s Test Kitchen

Posted on October 24, 2013October 20, 2015by wallflourgirl

YOU. Yes, you sitting there with your finger hovering over the mouse ready to click away at a moment’s notice and sneak cyber-stealthily away before reading the rest of this post. YOU WILL WANT TO STAY FOR THIS.

(Besides, MY TIRAMISU SEES YOU. So still those finicky fingers while I tell you about a fail-proof tiramisu recipe you just have to make. I do NOT use the appellation “very best” lightly.)

Monday Morning Mocha ‘n Chocolate Cheesecakes

Posted on September 23, 2013April 7, 2014by wallflourgirl

I have been productive lately. That means a lot of productibaking, which means wading through a really, really big pile of reading. Check.

I also have another photo-story for all of you. Did you see my last one for the very best chewy Biscoff blondies? I don’t have too much time these days to write, but I still want to share my stories with all of you.

I don’t drink coffee or mocha, but I love coffee-flavored anything. And since caffeine and productivity are the order of the day, these mocha ‘n chocolate cheesecakes were born–perfect for … Read more
