Mint Chip Oreos
Chocolate Mint Chip Oreos combine two of my big loves–mint and homemade Oreos. And they’re made with a cake mix so they’re always easy and always dangerously just a few minutes away 🙂 The Story: When you’re 6-years-old, you don’t have much to fight over with your friends. Who gets to play which Power Ranger,…

Mint Oreo Cupcakes
Oreos are one of my total guilty pleasures. A good movie, a big blanket, a sleeve of Oreos and a glass of cold milk is a perfect night to me. These Mint Oreo Cupcakes are delicious! Chocolate cake with a hidden Oreo baked into the bottom, fluffy-minty-cream cheesy-Oreo-frosting and an Oreo on top! On a…
Mint Brownies
Heavenly layered Mint Brownies. I am so excited to finally post these/make them. They are so delicious and mint and chocolate is my favorite flavor combination! Brownies like these were sold on my college campus (BYU), and they were good, but always a little dried out. These? No. Not dry at all! They are perfectly…

Mint Chip Cupcakes
The Story: I am a Northwest girl. So what does that mean? It means I love waking up to the sound of rain, wearing cozy sweaters, rooting for the Oregon Ducks and I love Tillamook everything. But my favorite Tillamook product has to be their ice creams. And my favorite flavor? Mint Chip–nothing beats it.
Andes Mint Cupcakes
New photo from my cookbook “Your Cup of Cake” I was introduced to Andes Mints at a very young age. Though, my strongest memory was not of eating them, it was of being attacked by them. My family commonly went to a little Mexican restaurant in town, and when we finished eating we would…
