I think we can all agree that Peppermint Mocha just screams the holiday season! It encompasses all the holiday flavors we love like peppermint, chocolate and of course, coffee. If I go to Starbucks this time of year, I always get a skinny peppermint mocha. Although, I don't think it is the best thing in the world, I enjoy it once in awhile.

I remember this time last year I was baking away in the kitchen for neighbors, friends, and family with just about every type of chocolate you can Continue Reading >>
Creamy, Frosted Sugar Cookie Tea
One of my fondest memories as a child was the joy I felt getting to bake sugar cookies with my mom, decorate them, and then the excitement of FINALLY getting to set out those cookies for Santa. I can still smell the cookies and feel the giddiness when I close my eyes. Needless to say I think Sugar Cookies are a Christmas staple, but it doesn't have to be all about cookies. What about a frosted sugar cookie tea? YES! For real, this is one of the best, coziest teas I have ever made. Even if you don't like tea, that's okay!
