This past weekend, in the mood for something sweet and seasonal, I made a batch of these iced gingerbread cookies. I didn't care for the icing the recipe called for, so I made my own simple variation by adding a little milk to powdered sugar. The cookies turned out wonderfully; they were spicy but still soft, and made the whole house smell like the holidays.

strawberry pizzettes
This recipe is super easy and a great summer dessert. Start with a package sugar cookie dough mix and prepare and bake it according to the directions on the package for roll-out cookies. Once the cookies are out of the oven and have cooled, mix up the topping: 1 8-oz. package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup of white sugar, and 1 tsp. of vanilla. Then spread on each cookie and top with sliced strawberries. Also you'll want to keep these refrigerated until serving, since the cream cheese topping will get melty if you don't.

sweet tooth
I recently discovered the fantastic baking blog Erica's Sweet Tooth, written by a fellow professional student/blogger. With its collection of creative recipes and lovely photography, it makes this baking enthusiast very excited. Though I am in the midst of a cleanse meant to vanquish my near-constant cravings for dessert, I cannot help but dream of baking some of these sweet treats when I'm through (butterbeer cupcakes! peanut butter cheesecake brownies!). Because, if we're being honest, nothing could rid me of my love for desserts. They just bring me too much joy, especially when they are as perfectly adorable as these confections.
