Quick and Easy Honey Garlic Chicken
After posting this picture on my Instagram, I got a lot of requests asking for the recipe.
This recipe was born out of a simple request from my cousin for a dinner that consisted of something with onion and garlic.
Now, my mind immediately thought of making Onion Rings but what could be the protein? Ravaging through my freezer, I found a pack of Chicken Breast Chunks.
I knew it would be best to make something battered and fried so as to use any leftover oil or flour from the Onion Rings. But my cousin said garlic right? So after some quick YouTubing, I found my inspiration from a Tasty video on Honey Garlic Chicken Wings.
I promptly set to work! 😃

Sugar Crust for Crème Brûlée without Torch or Broiler!!
I discovered this method of creating the sugary top of Crème Brûlée completely by accident.
I was doing a sale of Crème Brûlée cups for my dessert business and I was only able to source hard plastic cups in time for the sale.
So I made the Crème portion of the recipe and left it to set, thinking that if I wrap foil around the entire cup and then torch it, the plastic would not melt.
To my utter dismay, as I was melting the sugar for the crust, so to was I melting the actual cup that held the dessert!!

Crème Brûlée for One (No Bake)
Crème Brûlée is one of my all-time favorite desserts!! I absolutely love and almost always order it when I eat at restaurants that offer it.
A while back I purchased a blowtorch and had great fun making Crème Brûlée for my dessert business.
But the recipe I used usually made about ten 9 oz. cups of the Crème mixture and there were days that I just felt like eating one.
So I played around with a few techniques and managed to scale the recipe down to make enough for one and also develop a recipe that required no baking!
Disclaimer: A traditional Crème Brûlée requires the Crème to be baked in a water bath and then to be set for a few hours, preferably overnight. This recipe was developed to have the same taste of a Crème Brûlée and satisfy cravings without having to bake in the traditional method.

2-ingredient Chocolate Cookies
When you are craving something, you will find the laziest and easiest way that requires a minimal amount of effort.
This was me during that monthly craving period of my life. (Ladies, you feel me!)
I was desperately in need of something chocolatey and didn't want to just resort to eating plain chocolate chips from a bag... Though I did sneak a few.
I did some research online and found that you can make cookies with just two ingredients so I decided to put it to the test!
For the cookies you will need:
- 2 oz. or 1/3 milk chocolate chips or chopped milk chocolate
- 2 tbsp AP flour

1 dozen Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love Chocolate Chip cookies! My favorites are the really soft ones that are slightly golden on the edges.
Most recipes I've encountered make a really big batch of cookies, usually around 2 and a half dozens. While you can freeze the extras, I've decided to share my recipe for 1 dozen cookies, just incase that's all the ingredients one might have on hand.
Now bear in mind that my recipe produces cookies which are more on the soft and cakey side but they can slightly crisp up the longer you leave it in the oven.
*If you want crispier cookies, substitute half the quantity of butter with vegetable shortening and replace half the quantity of brown sugar with white granulated sugar.

Cinnamon-Glazed Banana Bread Donuts
Hello my lovelies!
So Friday 2nd June was declared as National Donut Day!
On that day I made Cinnamon-glazed Banana bread donuts and I posted a picture to Instagram and asked whether you guys wanted to me to post the recipe.
A few you all did, so this is for you guys! 💓
*These donuts are baked and I used a donut pan that I bought. I will leave a link on how to make your own donut pan/ molds after the recipe :)

No-bake 4 ingredient Chocolate Peanut butter cups
Without a doubt, my favorite candy has to be Reese's Peanut butter cups!
Chocolate and Peanut butter is one of my most loved food combinations (yes I consider this a food group 😅).
Sometimes I get these random cravings for PB cups but not all the time do I have Reese's on hand.
So, to satisfy my sweet tooth, I decided to create a small batch recipe for no-bake 4 ingredient Chocolate Peanut butter cups!
This recipe makes 3 regular sized PB cups or 2 regular sized + 2 minis.

Crazy Chocolate cake
Ever had a craving for a fluffy, rich chocolate cake but had limited ingredients?
Well owning a dessert business means that I can have quite the sweet tooth. Sometimes I am in a pinch to make a cake or really have some late night cravings for chocolate.
Usually, after making cakes for my customers, I am sometimes left with a few key ingredients to bake for myself.
So, I decided to adapt my regular 2-layer six inch chocolate cake recipe to be made WITHOUT eggs, butter and milk!
