    Would you believe me if I said I'd never had a pumpkin spice latte? I know, I know - calm down, let me explain. Before the "omg-I-can't-eat-gluten-anymore?!?!" incident of 2012, I didn't care for much other than black coffee. More recently, I've been trying some almond milk lattes from the store that I like for fun but I still prefer a hot cup of black coffee out of my Keurig in the morning (or evening if I feel like living on the edge). Anyways, after the "omg-I-can't-eat-gluten-anymore?!?!" incident of 2012, I couldn't exactly stop in any coffee shop and try one. But don't worry. This recipe tastes EXACTLY like the pumpkin spice lattes from my dreams. In chia pudding form. Does it taste like Starbucks? Couldn't tell ya, but I do know it's delicious and addicting.

    Ever since I tried PaleOMG's Overnight Chocolate Coffee Chia Breakfast Pudding, I've been adding coffee to so many of my chia puddings.  Basically all of them. So in a way, it inspired this recipe. If you've never tried one of Juli's recipes, you're missing out.Go try it!

    And if two chia pudding recipes isn't enough (or maybe coffee isn't your thing), I have a recipe for Pineapple Mint Chia Pudding. From back in the day when my blog was just a baby... last year ;)

    Yesterday was mine and Lenny's four year wedding anniversary. Do you wanna know what that wonderful hubster did for me? He bought me a camera! Not the "let's-get-this-one-because-my-photography-isn't-good-enough-to-justify-getting-something-fancy" camera but the actual fancy camera. I'm not one to think that a nicer camera will make someone a better photographer but I do know this - taking photos is so much easier now! I have so much more control over my photos. It makes me want to sit around all day and press all the buttons on the camera like a child until the battery dies. Seriously so fun. Point being, I used it to take the picture for this blog post. I still have a lot to learn and practice but I'm having a lot of fun.

    Speaking of exciting things that happen in October, American Horror Story is on again. We watched the first episode last night and I won't give details but there were quite a few creepy parts that were lacking last season. I think I will like it as long as it doesn't get all vampirey. Can't stand vampire stuff. I'm completely slacking on the scary movies so far this season. I re-watched As Above So Below, Sinister, and It but haven't seen anything new.  I think I missed the second Sinister and Insidious movies which I was really looking forward to. I want to see The Visit simply for the fact that the grandma asks her granddaughter to get into the oven so politely. Good stuff. I also watched a preview for Crimson Peak which looks very scary!  That's the kind of scary movie you see at 10am before the giggly teeny-boppers come out and ruin it. What other scary movies do I need to add to my list? Am I missing anything?

      Your photography is wonderful! You make me want to leave the house to purchase the ingredients to to make everything you post. I definitely will make this on a cold winter night when all I want to do is sit by the fire and relax with a good book.

        Thanks, Darcie! Yeah, I know everyone's crazy about them right now. I saw an almond milk pumpkin spice latte at the store the other day. It was gluten free but I think I waited too long to try it because they're long gone now!

        I would guess about 4 days for the best quality. They might get a little liquid on top from separation but it shouldn't hurt anything to just stir it back up a bit. Hope you enjoy them!

    I started out with a passion for creating unique recipes and decorating cakes. In June of 2012, I discovered I was not only severely gluten intolerant but also, many of the foods I was eating I simply couldn't include in my diet anymore. Fortunately, my love for trying new recipes, ingredients, and cooking methods made re-learning how to cook seem more like a fun challenge than an unfortunate circumstance. I'm so happy to say that my dietary restrictions haven't stopped me from doing what I love. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do.

    I almost didn’t make this into a casserole becau I almost didn’t make this into a casserole because the sauce and pasta combined made a delicious side dish on their own! @beldolcefood #sponsored my most recent blog post and provided me with their new gluten free fusilli and penne to try out. I used the fusilli in this recipe and the sauce is a creamy, cheesy enchilada sauce made from just 3 ingredients.
.
I ended up adding taco meat, fire roasted tomatoes, corn, black beans, and dairy free cheese to make a taco noodle casserole. Then we ate it all and I made it again! This is one of those recipes that will be going in our regular meal rotation.
.
This is a pretty versatile recipe. It can be made vegan just by leaving out the meat and it’s just as good. And as I said earlier, the pasta with just the sauce makes a really good side dish. You can also top it with whatever you like such as cilantro, jalapeños, sour cream, scallions, or salsa.
.

    I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers t I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers that makes cakes for their blogs “birthdays”. Or uses the blog birthdays as an excuse to make yet another cake recipe....yeah, that’s probably more accurate.
.
Definitely felt like I needed a good excuse for this one because it’s my fifth variation of gooey butter cake! However, my site is seven years old so maybe I should have had seven gooey butter cakes ready to go? Guess I’d better get caught up before year eight 😉
.
Anyways, I really enjoyed this carrot cake variation of gooey butter cake. The cake layer/crust swaps out the yellow cake mix with spice cake mix and I added in some shredded carrots and raisins. I kept the “gooey” top layer the same except that I topped it with a sprinkle of cinnamon and additional raisins before baking.

    Here are a few last minute treat ideas! The carame Here are a few last minute treat ideas! The caramel stuffed crispy rice treats recipe is written below. The other recipes (gooey butter cookies, salted caramel turtles, and pumpkin snickerdoodles) can be found at the link in my bio!
.
CARAMEL STUFFED CRISPY RICE TREATS
.
INGREDIENTS
.
• ¼ C dairy free butter, divided
• 4 C mini marshmallows (regular and vegan both work), divided
• 6 C gluten free rice cereal *see notes*
• 1 tsp vanilla extract, divided
• 10-11 oz dairy free chewy caramels
• 11.25 oz can sweetened condensed coconut milk
.
DIRECTIONS
.
1. Melt 2 tablespoons of the dairy free butter in a medium sauce pan over medium-low heat. Add 2 cups of marshmallows and stir until they are melted with no lumps.
2. Remove from heat and stir in ½ tsp of vanilla then gently fold in 3 cups of cereal until it is well-combined with the marshmallows.
3. Using wet hands, press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 7x11 inch casserole dish and set aside.
4. Unwrap the caramels and add them along with the sweetened condensed coconut milk to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir often to avoid burning. Once this has turned to a completely smooth sauce, pour over the cereal layer.
5. Make your top cereal layer by repeating steps 1 and 2. Distribute this evenly over the caramel layer and pat down with wet hands.
6. Once the treats have cooled down, they will firm up and hold their shape when cut. Cut into squares and serve.
.
NOTES
.
• Potential allergens contained in this recipe may vary due to brands of ingredients used, product reformulations, etc. Please verify that all your ingredients are safe for you to consume and always be mindful of allergen cross contamination while cooking.
• Double check that the cereal you use is gluten free. At least one brand carries 2 different versions of rice cereal and only one is GF.
• Don't make both cereal layers in one large batch then divide it up. The top layer will cool and firm up before you can layer it on which will make the caramel seep out when you press it down.
    ✨recipe below✨ I have these cooking on the sto ✨recipe below✨ I have these cooking on the stove right now. I’m adding them into my cookie tins (which I’m sure you’re tired of hearing about by now) but they also make a good topping for desserts or ice cream or even just served straight from a bowl at holiday parties.
.
To make the recipe, whisk together 1/4 C maple syrup with 3/4 tsp cinnamon. Put 1 1/2 C pecan halves in a skillet over medium-low heat and pour syrup mixture over it. Stir with a rubber spatula to coat and continue stirring often to prevent burning until all the stickiness is gone and you’re left with sugar crystals on the pecans.

    One of the things I’ve been working on lately is One of the things I’ve been working on lately is a new homepage for my website. I just published it this weekend!
.
Before, I just had the blog as the homepage because that’s how I’ve always followed blogs - I’d go to the website then look for the newest post and read it.
.
That definitely doesn’t seem to be the norm anymore and it’s definitely not on my site! Most of my visitors come from google or Pinterest because they’re looking for something in particular.
.
I had a hard time deciding what to put on my homepage that might make it a good space for “looking around” while not losing that easily accessible list of newest posts (I know, I can’t let it go! 😅) I also have a new menu on mobile which frees up a ton of space above the fold for content. Love it!
.
Still working on cleaning things up a bit and I have some other things I’d like to do too. I got rid of the sidebar on the homepage but I’m considering completely eliminating it and better utilizing the footer since everyone’s on mobile now anyways. Or maybe it doesn’t make a difference? 🤷‍♀️
.
I’m more in the mood to do this stuff than new recipes lately but I think I will try to do one recipe before I get back to playing around with the site. I have a recipe I made back in July that’s ready to go. Maybe I should finally post it?

    These were the most difficult cookies to pack up f These were the most difficult cookies to pack up for mailing because the caramel is a thick sauce (I thought baking a caramel candy into the center was too chewy and not the right texture for a cookie.) I could have just picked a different cookie but these are so good that I had to include them!
.
What I ended up doing was adding the cookies with the empty depression to the tin. I added the caramel sauce to a plastic sandwich bag and included some coarse sea salt too. As long as you bring the caramel to room temperature you can cut a small corner off the bag and fill the cookies then top with a pinch of salt.

    This was one of the first recipes I ever attempted This was one of the first recipes I ever attempted to put on my blog back in 2014 and it took me until last December to finally get it the way I wanted.
.
A lot of what made these difficult was getting the texture right. I wanted thick cookies, slight crisp on the outside, soft inside, and a strong creamy peanut butter/sunbutter taste when you bite into them. It is EXACTLY what I got (and it was completely worth all the failed yet still edible attempts!)
.
I recently made 2 versions of this recipe - peanut butter blossoms and regular sunbutter cookies for family with peanut and chocolate allergies.
.
Both versions are included in the same blog post at the link in my profile.

    This is a new recipe this year from a collaboratio This is a new recipe this year from a collaboration with @pattymacmakes. She did the original recipe and I made it GF/DF.
.
I feel like I learned more about gluten free/dairy free conversions from this recipe than any other recipe I’ve made. Looking back, it was probably the most difficult one to convert so far (maybe tied with my cream puff recipe).
.
Part of converting these to GF meant finding a replacement for the oats. Gluten free oats can be tricky and since they sometimes make me sick, I’ve stopped eating the mechanically sorted type and it seems to be fine. However it’s hard to tell which are purity protocol (aside from the price tag $$$) so I’ve replaced them altogether.
.
Instead of oats, coconut flakes worked perfectly by adding that same chewy texture without adding much of a different flavor. If you have a recipe that uses a little rolled oats for texture purposes, try this trick!
.
You can get the recipe at the link in my profile and Patty’s version of the recipe can be found in the blog post.
