Perfect Pie Crust

Nothing goes better with a holiday meal than pie! And who can just have one? This recipe is the perfect amount of dough for 3 pies.

Every Sunday morning at 8 am I recap the week, share what I learned and showcase some of my work!

4 simple ingredients

Pie dough is incredibly annoying.. It can come out flaky and perfect but if you look at it funny it'll be tough and impossible to work with. BUT the ingredients are simple and the outcome will always be tasty.

Pies are such a staple this time of year. I crave the classics like pumpkin and apple plus I have a sweet spot for blueberry as well. This week I showcase my recipes for 3 of my favorite pies.

I also wanted to take a moment to remember the brave men a women who sacrifice themselves for peace. May there be a time where we don't need to defend peace but until that time I'm proud of our strong and diverse Canadian Military.

Holiday Baking

Every Sunday morning at 8 am I recap the week, share what I learned and showcase some of my work!

Or in this case, it's all about the showcase!! The holidays are fast approaching and you know that you won't have time to do all the baking you dream of. So let me help you! I will even let you take the credit ;) 

Here are a few mouth watering and traditional favorites for the holidays from years past.

Chocolate cake with Reese's Peanut Butter cups, Reese's pieces, and chocolate drizzle on top! This mouth watering design will get you every time: Chocolate cake covered in chocolate icing topped with chopped mini Reese's peanut butter cups and Reese's pieces drizzled in chocolate.

Looking for more of a classic dessert? How about a traditional linzer torte.

A little history on Linzer Tortes: Named after the city of Linz, Austria it's a holiday classic in Austria, Hungary, Sweden, and Germany and mainly seen on the dinner tables at Christmas time. Linzer tortes can be made in many sizes and shapes from cookies, tarts and tortes. I chose the torte for my experiment to make sure the baking times worked for the oven.

Or perhaps you prefer cookies!

A great way to show off some cheer is with these colourful cookies!!

I also specialize in cupcakes and can pretty  make any treat as long as sufficient order time is given.
