Desserts

If I'm being honest - I have a serious sweet tooth. These are my favorite dessert recipes, from the big fat chewy chocolate chip cookies my nieces love to make to my Grandma Blanche's famous pound cake with a crunchy top that appears on every holiday table. All of these sweet treats are made with simple ingredients and a whole lot of love. Because life is just more delicious with dessert.
