Cream Puffs

It’s Labor Day weekend! It’s also eight days since my last baking session, eight weeks since I lounged on an Alaskan cruise with my parents, and eight months since my last blog post…Yikes!

Needless to say, things have been busy around here and while not everything has necessarily been easy, I’m happy to report that it’s been filled with some pretty memorable milestones. In the past eight months, I’ve … Read more

My pet bird smells like wet socks.

Dark Chocolate Thin Mints

Posted on by wallflourgirl

A dark, delightful twist on traditional Thin Mints cookies! These elegant, homemade Dark Chocolate thin mints make a stunning addition to cookie party trays and are definitely worth the extra effort. (Original recipe from Baked by an Introvert.)

What’s shaped like a hockey puck, darker than an episode of Squid Game, and more delicious than the sweet taste of victory when you finally run longer than your panting, sweating arch-nemesis does at the gym (who, unbeknownst to them, has been competing with you in a silent, slightly petty treadmill race for the past six months)?

Guys, welcome to … Read more

Oreo Chocolate Swiss Roll

Come to the Dark Side: We have Oreo Chocolate Swiss rolls! This decadent dessert features a fluffy chocolate cake, airy whipped cream filling with Oreo crumbs, and silky chocolate ganache topping that would make even Han Solo swoon.

In my line of work, we see celebrities about as often as you’d see signs of illicit inebriation in a college frat house.

I’ve chatted with Jeff Goldblum about running marathons in a unicorn onesie; run into Jon Favreau ordering a grande whatsit at Starbucks downstairs; watched Emilia Clarke recite quippy marketing one-liners that I’d written for her latest film promotion; … Read more

These glorious Ganache-filled Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies are a Wallflour favorite! Rich dark chocolate ganache centers are wrapped within a perfectly chewy, crispy-edged chocolate chunk cookie that’s sure to make you swoon. Recipe lightly adapted from Love and Olive Oil.

I’m sorry, Ms. Jackson…These cookies are for real.

It’s very rare in our household that a new dessert becomes an instant Wallflour Boy hit. Unlike me, he prefers 2000s hip hop hits to 90s bubblegum pop and savory foods over sweet treats. There are, however, a few notable exceptions: French apple pie, cheesecake, and anything … Read more
