Blueberry Covered Cheesecake

Published on August 19, 2019August 19, 2019 by Erin (Chick & Co.)8 Comments

Hey There!

I love cheesecake. It is a favorite of my family’s, and making it is super fun!

For my Sister’s Birthday, I made a Captain America Shield Cheesecake, and she loved it. The recipe is so amazing – creamy and delicious! In fact, the recipe is so good, I made it again for a family Christmas gathering: it was a hit! I really like the methods used in this Perfect Cheesecake Recipe; they help it from cracking. 🙂

I normally cover to top of my cheesecakes with cherry pie filling (unless I make a design like the Captain America cake), but this time I thought blueberry would be a delicious variation! I tried a marbling technique, and am super pleased with how it turned out, plus it was fun. To complete my cheesecake, I had no other choice but to do something very violent: I whipped some cream! 😉 If you love cheesecake, I highly recommend this recipe with a fruit topping!

I made this Gluten Free by making the crust with GF graham crackers. I think the crust has a delicious taste, and is wonderful for those with allergies.

GF Brownies

Hi there!

I love baking from scratch, but sometimes that’s just too much work. 😉 That’s when boxed mixes come in! I don’t make very many brownies, usually cakes. I was glancing through our box mix collection and saw a GF brownie mix that looked tasty, and decided to go for it. It was delicious! I added some white chocolate chips for some variation, and love how it added some extra flavor! 😛 I decided to ice the brownies, because I love icing! (Who doesn’t?) 😉 I found a recipe that intrigued me, and I’m so glad I tried it – it was AMAZING! The Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting had a wonderful light and fluffy texture, and the flavor was sooooo good! I highly recommend icing your brownies with this delicious frosting for some variation. ❤

Key Lime Pie!

Published on June 10, 2019June 10, 2019 by Erin (Chick & Co.)2 Comments

Hello!

I love experimenting with baking. Trying new things is exciting! I was looking through one of my favorite baking books, Sally’s Baking Addiction by Sally McKenney and spotted a key lime pie recipe. It looked delicious, and I decided to go for it and have fun.

I made the pie crust with Gluten Free graham crackers, and it tasted just like a regular pie crust. It had the same texture, and was deliciously buttery! 😛

This key lime pie is SPECTACULAR! It has just the right amount of zing from the lime without being too overpowering. The pie has an incredible creamy consistency that leaves you wanting more! ❤ I am positive I will be using this recipe more in the future. 😉

Amazing Ice Cream Cake

Published on January 23, 2019January 22, 2019 by Erin (Chick & Co.)5 Comments

Hello! 🙂

Recently, we celebrated my Dad’s Birthday! 😀 Since I like cooking and baking, I of course wanted to make his cake. My Dad loves Ice Cream, so it seemed like a good idea to make him an Ice Cream Cake! 😉

Due to allergies, I looked up a Gluten Free Ice Cream Cake Recipe, and found a delicious one. It turned out really well, and was super fun to make! 😛 Along with my New Baking Supplies, my sister also got me some edible glitter! I decided to put on some silver glitter for an extra sparkle. 😉 This cake was delicious! Happy Birthday, Daddy! 😀

Peanut Butter & Jelly Cupcakes

Published on December 29, 2018December 27, 2018 by Erin (Chick & Co.)8 Comments

Hi There! ❤

Whenever I watch baking competition shows, the contestants almost always fill the inside of their cupcakes with something interesting. I’ve never done that before. And so, feeling very ambitious one day, I decided to try it. That’s when I made these delicious PB&J cupcakes. I made Simple Vanilla Cupcakes, filled the inside with some tart jelly, and made peanut butter frosting for the top. 😛

Due to family allergies, I made these cupcakes Gluten Free. Also, one of my family members can’t have peanut butter, due to an extremely severe allergy. My family found out about a peanut butter substitute, called Wowbutter. I used this instead for the icing, and it worked perfectly, as if there wasn’t even a difference. ❤ This is DEFINITELY one of my favorite Frosting Recipes.

My family said that they tasted very good, but that they needed more jelly inside. Now I know what to do in the future! 😉 I am so happy with how these cupcakes turned out. 🙂
