Unpopular opinion: I love Halloween. Usually, Ber months in the Philippines is automatically associated with Christmas while Halloween is completely overshadowed. But, I think Halloween deserves its own spotlight. There’s something about dressing up in costume and getting free candy that appeals to my inner child. (mostly the free candy though) This recipe is a […]

Flourless Chocolate Black Pepper Cake
This Flourless Chocolate Black Pepper Cake is the perfect fancy dessert for special occasions or if you are in dire need of a chocolate fix. Flourless chocolate cakes are deceptively effortless and rich. It comes out of the oven with a crackly meringue layer that slowly falls into multiple chocolate fissures hiding the fudgy interior. […]
Double Stuffed Milano Cookies
Milano Cookies have been a family favorite ever since I was young. I grew up with these buttery biscuits filled with rich chocolate for as long as I could remember. My mom has a chronic sweet tooth and she would always stock up on pastries to snack on at home. I can’t say I recommend […]
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cinnamon Hot Cross Buns
Happy Resurrection Sunday! The Lord is good! It’s been a wild year so far and it’s amazing to look back and see God’s presence sprinkled throughout my random life bits. Many people spend this time in their own way and oftentimes it’s a time for families to gather, remember and celebrate the occasion. As usual, […]
Dark Chocolate Chunk Olive Oil Cookies
It’s no secret that I love cookies and chocolate. I can probably have dozens of cookie variations and be the happiest girl alive (this and maybe add on a few brownies). I am a woman of simple tastes. That being said, I put this under my list of “favorite chocolate chip cookies“. Gooey, rich, chewy […]
Vegan Black Sesame Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies
These vegan cookies are the cookies you didn’t know you needed! Did I really want to mess with a perfectly good chocolate chip cookie? Apparently, yes I did and I’m glad I did. Who knew that nutty black sesame would meld so well with chewy dark chocolate studded cookies? Or that an ebony salted caramel […]
The Best Vegan Brownies Ever
Hey friends! I’m back after a hiatus of sorts. Things have been crazy since this new year started! First, my family got hit with Omicron, followed by a funeral (long story) and then work went haywire. Safe to say I’m so happy to say goodbye to the first three months of the year. I genuinely […]
Matcha Grinch Cakes & Bake Flops
I’ve been feeling under the weather ever since me and my brother finished the second vaccine dose. Honestly, I can’t remember the last time I’ve had cold sweats. That strange feeling of heat and chill that makes your hair stand on end. To make matters more interesting, we were down to the last 3 anti-fever […]
No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Revel Bars
Back again with one of my favorite food combos ever: chocolate and peanut butter. Even better that the filling comes in the form of a luscious velvety ganache. My sister has been craving for revel bars for the longest time. Mostly because we’ve been stuck in a constant rotation of the same snacks this quarantine. […]
Vegan Easter Bunny Snickerdoodles with Milk Chocolate
Gosh! What a week! I’ve been swamped with orders, new recipes and to be honest I’m still munching on last week’s carrot cake. It’s been busy but it’s the good kind of busy, if you know what I mean. It’s been a while since I got to bake just for fun. Not worrying about bad […]
