Fabulously Fit Friday 24

April 12, 2013 by Melissa

Happy Friday!!! I've been in a workout funk lately. And it's not a bad thing! I haven't been fighting it either! My body has been craving relaxation and recovery because I've been traveling so much and generally very stressed out, so I've been obliging. Nothing too strenuous, I've been mostly wanting walks and yoga and a few quick workouts (I'm talking really quick...like 10 minute … [Read more...]

Blackberry Crumble Breakfast Bars

April 10, 2013 by Melissa

I can’t even express to you my love of these bars! Seriously, to die for. They’re like the best crumble-topped pie crossed with a comforting breakfast bar. They’re subtly sweet, nutty, and buttery. BUT they’re not loaded with sugar and butter! I promise! They’re full of healthy whole grains, hearty seeds, and fresh fruit. Yum. So, I love these hot…and cold. For breakfast with … [Read more...]

Coconut Lime Macaroons

April 8, 2013 by Melissa

It was SO beautiful this weekend! I got to wear shorts and I felt so relaxed, just because the sun was out. My mom and I got to spend the whole weekend together, running errands, planning my wedding, and having fun. What else is there to do when the sun is out? Well, crack out some summery cookies, of course! Right? Well, I did! I combined my latest obsession, lime, with my favorite … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 23

April 5, 2013 by Melissa

Well I’ve been taking some time to work on a few personal things, so hopefully as soon as I have those under control I’ll be back on track in my little Treats world. So, apologies for that. Gonna post a few random food pics, as always, to keep you drooling while reading! I didn’t publish FFF last week, but I have had this nagging fitness-related problem on my brain. I need advice…on … [Read more...]

Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cream Pie

April 3, 2013 by Melissa

I almost never make pie. It’s not that I don’t like pie. I love pie. Seriously. But it’s usually too complicated. I mean, come on! You have to make a crust…and a filling…and almost always a topping?? That’s like making 3 things! When normally, I can make just one (cookies people). Anyways, I made pie. Yup, start to finish, I made pie. An epic pie! Oh, and it’s vegan. And can be … [Read more...]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Oats

April 1, 2013 by Melissa

I hope you all had a Happy Easter (or Passover, or weekend, whichever makes you happiest) and you’re not drowning in Peeps and Cadbury Eggs. Though, that wouldn’t be the absolute worst thing to happen... The Easter bunny didn’t visit me. I don’t know what happened. I was pretty good this year. I think. But, apparently he has higher standards than Stanta. Sheesh. Well, for a treat for … [Read more...]

Skinny Samoas (gluten-free, Caramel DeLites)

March 28, 2013 by Melissa

Remember how I said that shortbread cookies are a gateway cookie? Well…one Girl Scout Cookie leads to another… Yup, Samoas. That’s right, I made them. Gluten-free too. Way less sugar and fat. And they taste the same. Dare I say, better? Yup. I dare. And not just me! My fiancé said it. He tends to eat cookies in a blind hurry, stuffing them into his mouth before even looking at … [Read more...]

Cookie Butter Oatmeal Sandwich Cookies

March 26, 2013 by Melissa

Sandwich cookie kick? I think so. You're welcome! I know I have sung the praises of cookie butter here before! So I won't bore you. You can just get to the baking and drooling all on your own. These are amazing. Like, out of this world, amazing! Oatmeal cookies? Yes!! Perfectly soft and smooshed together with cookie butter. I mean, seriously, it doesn't get much better than … [Read more...]

Alfajores Cookies (dulce de leche sandwich cookies, gluten-free)

March 25, 2013 by Melissa

I recently started making gluten-free shortbread cookies. And having something like a good, basic shortbread under your belt is nothing but helpful. Shortbread is a gateway cookie. Yes, it tastes wonderful on its own, dunked in coffee (hello blue box Girl Scout Cookie)…but…it can be the base to SO many other cookies! Gateway cookie. Hardcore. It leads to hardcore cookies. You just wait, … [Read more...]
