8 Things To Bake This Weekend

In This Article:

1. Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate cookies are a classic. Everyone loves them are they are sure to be a hit no matter where you bring them. Or eat them all yourself you deserve it. Instead of chocolate chips try using really high quality chocolate and cutting it into chunks!

2. Caramel Brownies

I made these the other night because I love caramel in every dessert I can possibly put it in. The flavor is pretty self-explanatory, but if you're trying to have something extremely decadent try these.

3. Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

This dessert is one of my favorites. I love any dessert that has fruit in, I think it adds a refreshing element to desserts that would otherwise be heavy or overwhelming. We all know about pineapple upside down cakes, but we do not make them nearly enough!

4. Apple Turnovers

If you are craving apple pie but don't want all the fuss that comes with it, apple turnovers are the perfect compromise. They are small and portable, easy to make and super tasty.

5. Bread Pudding

When I went to New Orleans over the summer I went to a restaurant that had quite possibly the best bread pudding I've ever had. Luckily I found an exact copy of the recipe, I have already made this multiple times and can attest to its deliciousness.

6. Red Velvet Cupcakes

Something a little more indulgent and absolutely Instagram worthy. Red velvet cupcakes are super good, especially with a cream cheese frosting. This is my favorite recipe.

7. Coconut Macarons

Not to be confused with macaroons, these little treats are so good. Feel free to explore different flavors. These can be pretty complicated to make, so if you're up for challenge these will be so worth it.

8. Crème Brûlée

The crème de la crème of baking, the ultimate dessert. Creamy custard under a blanket of caramelized sugar. Not only is it delicious, but you get to use a blow torch. These can also be hard to make, but even if you can't achieve the crispy top, the custard is still good as hell.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
