Gooey, decadent Andes mint chocolate chip brownies use only 5 ingredients! The perfect chocolate addition to holiday dessert platters or cookie boxes. This year I decided to take on an ambitious task for the holidays: making cookie boxes for friends and family. This sounds easy enough unless you're a maniac like me who wants to make every cookie recipe you've ever seen on the interwebs and you ...

The Best Holiday Cookie Box
A Holiday Cookie Box is a wonderful DIY gift for the holidays. I've shared all the recipes here so you can make your own for family and friends! For the last few years I've oohed and aahed over the cookie boxes filling my Instagram feed. Who were these baking goddesses with so much time for holiday cookie creation during the busiest time of the year? This year, with no parties to prepare for ...
My Favorite Cut-Out Sugar Cookies & Buttercream
Soft cut-out sugar cookies and buttercream frosting. Is there anything better? Here are my favorite recipes! I've tried a lot of different cut-out cookie recipes and various techniques for cookie decorating. I've been disappointed by cut-out cookies that kept their shape beautifully but were virtually tasteless and ones that tasted great but spread in the oven. I want to share with you a great ...
Earl Grey Lemon Shortbread Cookies
Earl Grey lemon shortbreads are buttery, crisp, and light with just a hint of brightness from the lemon zest and the comforting subtle smell of tea. Pairs perfectly with (surprise!) afternoon tea or coffee. I've always gravitated towards a shortbread cookie. Maybe it's because I lean more towards desserts with vanilla or fruit flavors and less towards chocolate creations. Or maybe I love how ...
Turkey Vegetable Soup (Slow Cooker & Stovetop Variations)
This turkey vegetable soup is perfect for busy weeknights. It's quick, inexpensive, filling, and healthy. I'll show you how to cook it on the stovetop or in the slow cooker. Winter has never been my favorite season. I'm not a big fan of the cold, and during grad school winter days were particularly long. I'd get up early and head to school some mornings in the dark, only to return home in the ...
Easy Blondies (Halloween Edition)
This is the only blondie recipe you'll ever need. These blondies are perfectly chewy and slightly caramel-y.

Blackened Shrimp Tacos with Spicy Kale Slaw
Tacos! We love 'em. Exhibit A. Exhibit B. Exhibit C. I know I speak for all four of us here at Fridge to Fork when I say we can frequently be found throwing leftover meats and veggies into a tortilla and calling it dinner. So, when pinole blue sent me some gorgeous, all-natural pink corn tortillas during the month of October, I got in the kitchen to whip up some tacos with what I had on hand. ...
Strawberry Bruschetta
Strawberry Bruschetta: a simple summer appetizer that'll be a hit at your next gathering! Last summer, I whipped this up with half of a baguette that was leftover from making panzanella. I had a few friends over for dinner, and this was gone in a flash! The basil, strawberries, and feta work so well together. (If you aren't a feta fan, you can use goat cheese instead.) I particularly enjoy ...
