Homemade Funfetti cupcakes

I am a serious cake lover and adore everything and anything that has to do with funfetti, sprinkles , cake batter and cookie dough! If it were upto me, I would add sprinkles to everything  possible, can you blame me? Surprisingly, they are not only popular with kids but adults also have fond memories of enjoying…

Sweet Banana Dumplings

Do you always need something to munch on while watching movies? I prefer cozying up on the couch in our living room as opposed to watching movies in theater. It gives the flexibility of munching the above pictured  banana dumplings instead of over buttered popcorn and stale nachos. I have realized that eating crunchy  food in…

Mixed Berry Pound Cake

There is a special comfort in knowing that you are stocked up with fresh seasonal berries for the summer.  Honestly, I get a little carried away whenever I see them in the supermarket and end up buying more than necessary. Can you tell? I am a berry hoarder and that is the reason you are seeing…

Fluffy Pancakes

I do not remember at what stage I jumped on the “I love PANCAKES for breakfast” bandwagon but now I secretly wear a shirt bearing those words! I can eat them at any time of the day and in any form. Especially, when I have delicious and colorful berries at my disposal, the foodie in me…

French Toast with Berries

Strawberry + Spinach Salad

It is not always that I end up making a salad for lunch. But I had stuffed myself with so many sweet treats over the week it was definitely due. Not all  my food (read dessert) pictures  make it to Instagram 😉   This is a easy spring/summer salad, with a lot of options as to…

Overnight Oats

It is no secret that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and raise your hand if you have skipped it because you were in a hurry to leave for work or class. To all those who raised their hands and also to those who prefer to spend more time getting ready than…

Eggless Strawberry Pancakes

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and it is going to be  a Sunday! Honestly, I am far from buying into the whole Valentine’s Day thing with greeting cards, gifts and over the top V-Day gestures. I think it is commercialized and catered more towards high school crowd and teenagers. 😉 I say this…

Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Ganache

Any food that includes Chocolate makes me happy! So, it was only fitting to kick start the new years eve with a decadent chocolate cake. I have baked this cake three times in the last month for different events and every single time, it has turned out beautifully.  I can’t get over how simple this recipe is…
