If there was one quintessential childhood cookie for me growing up, it was the white chocolate-macadamia nut cookie from Subway(eat Fresh). Whenever we had field trips, my mom would get me a footlong Italian sandwich with one of those cookies, so I always looked forward to field trips for that very reason. Even as an…

Dark Chocolate-Dried Cherry Sourdough Scones
Now that I am officially a sourdough parent, I am always finding fun and new ways to use up my sourdough starter. One of those ways was by making scones. I was really just thinking about items that could be served in an afternoon tea, since a lot of those things are dough-based pastries or…

I know with scones, there is usually a stigma with them…
Future Nostalgia: a plated dessert
Truthfully, I never really made scones before. I have made biscuits, and my god, I love me a flaky biscuit, but with scones, they just felt too much like a biscuit that was trying to be a cookie(I know that if you’re British or Australian, reading that sentence would make no sense, but bear with…
