We’ve had our emergency bags packed for a week now, but we’re the lucky ones by far. This whole ordeal with the LA wildfires has felt eerily reminiscent of the COVID-19 pandemic: Office and school closures, masks everywhere, county-wide emergency notifications–a whole lot of confusion about whether to stay put or just hightail it out of the city as fast as you … Read more

Every once in a while, a recipe comes along that is so mind-blowingly scrumdiddlyumptious, it’s worth dragging yourself out of the Blogging Bogs of Banishment to post about it. This, my friends, is one of those awesome recipes.

Though I’ve never been a fan of coffee (the drink), I grew up in a household where coffee (the flavor) was the stuff of dessert legend. My grandma in particular was the Matriarch of … Read more

Sometimes, when I’m feeling particularly philosophical while baking, the most curious little thoughts will drift past my mind.

What do tuxedo penguins wear to the office on casual Fridays?

Would a giraffe know what to do if you asked it to put on a necktie?

Who’s to say that birds of paradise shouldn’t actually have googly eyes?

How many scrumptious dark chocolate morsels make up each one … Read more

The post Dark Chocolate Chunk Scones with Caramel Glaze appeared first on Wallflour Girl.

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

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

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

The post Ganache-filled Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies appeared first on Wallflour Girl.

So I happened to be reading the Wikipedia entry for the seven deadly sins the other day and realized at one point that I was making a mental checklist as I went…I’ve been known, for instance, to procrastinate going to bed because I’m too lazy to even get off the couch (sloth), and please never ask me about my utterly gorgeous … Read more

The post Chocolate Truffle Cookies appeared first on Wallflour Girl.

The first time my college roommate caught me eating her homemade caramelitas, she suggested (rather mildly) that I could just take one and eat it if I wanted. You see, she had put them in the freezer for safekeeping and invited me to help myself anytime–but in my half-hearted attempt at self-control, I politely declined her invitation every time. … Read more

The post Vegan Caramelitas appeared first on Wallflour Girl.

There comes a moment in every person’s life when something unexpected blows their world into a billion, teeny-tiny smithereens and hurls their life into a supermassive existential black hole. For some people, this happens when they realize that Santa isn’t real. Or that Hollywood starlets like Zendaya and Brie Larson are actually younger than you are.

For me, … Read more

The post Neapolitan Cheesecake appeared first on Wallflour Girl.

Growing up, it was very easy to decide where we wanted to stay when we traveled. My brother and I were real high rollers: we liked Travelodge for the Sleepy Bears’ Den kids’ room, (which came with a free stuffed bear you could take home). We appreciated a good stay at the Circus Circus in Las Vegas, since our rooms were just a hop away from … Read more
