December 2, 2020 By Emily

whipped cream in a white bowl with a spoon.

Happy December, friends!! It's officially baking season. And with baked goods comes the need for some homemade whipped cream.  Fluffy clouds of sweet vanilla-scented, creamy heaven, dolloped on top of any pie you love. Or, scooped on top of hot chocolate (recipe coming next week), or even on top of your coffee. Dip strawberries, or, pretty much any kind of fresh fruit, into whipped cream, and you've instantly got a delicious fruity treat. The possibilities are endless on how you … [Read more...]

July 22, 2020 By Emily

This recipe was previously published on Robust Recipes. It has been updated for a better user experience. Have you ever met a person who doesn't like coleslaw? Coleslaw is like the one salad that everyone likes. Even if you're not a salad person, you usually like a good creamy coleslaw. Nothing says summer to me like a big heaping side serving of creamy coleslaw next to my grilled whatever, or my BBQ slathered whatever, eaten on a paper plate outside. Half of the time I want to fill most … [Read more...]
