Walnut Linzer Cookies — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
Linzer cookies are a holiday classic - usually made with almonds and raspberry jam as a nod to the Austrian Torte which they are named after. I took a few liberties here - swapping deeply toasted walnuts for the almonds and fig and currant jams for the raspberry so this is definitely a cookie where

No Churn Crème Fraîche and Blueberry Ice Cream — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
This no churn blueberry and crème fraîche ice cream is a super simplified version of one of my favorite ice cream recipes from my book, Sweeter off the Vine , and you don’t need any special equipment to make it! I know when I want ice cream, I don’t want to wait a full 24 hours for the bowl of my

No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
In the heat of summer, I am always looking for fun low (or no) cook ways to make and enjoy a little dessert. Give me all of your icebox cakes, no bake bars, and no bake cheesecakes! No bake cheesecake has all of the rich cream cheese flavor of its baked counterpart, but it is a bit lighter in textur
Pumpkin Olive Oil Cake with Maple Olive Oil Glaze from Snacking Cakes — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
This one-bowl Pumpkin Olive Oil Cake with Maple Olive Oil Glaze is as easy as can be. It’s a great alternative to pie for Thanksgiving too. The maple olive oil glaze is sweet and savory all at once and has the most velvety texture.
The Classic Birthday Cake — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
It’s birthday season in Apartment 2 (we lost the B in our move, years ago) and you all know I love a big ol birthday cake . I have to admit that I have been a chocolate cake/vanilla frosting devotee for many years but after trying this yellow cake recipe my preference just may be flipping ups
Crushed Raspberry and Strawberry Pavlova — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
We are still in a bit of an in between produce season, but the weather is warming up and the sun is out so I am craving fresh fruit desserts like it’s my job. I guess it kind of is my job…I love to make desserts like this pavlova because it is fairly low lift and aside from a low, slow bake in the o
Any Fruit Galette — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
Hello! This post is a little refresh of my very favorite recipe - Galettes! If you follow me on instagram you know that I am a galette evangelist. I think galettes are the very best and most fun dessert because they are so easy to make and adaptable, but my recipe was a little bit hidden in the arc
Pumpkin Spice Donut Cake — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
This cozy and sweet pumpkin cake is a riff on the super popular powdered donut cake from my book Snacking Cakes . All you need is a bowl, whisk and pan to put this perfect little fall cake together in less than an hour. It is packed with lots of fall (pumpkin!) spices, pumpkin puree and buttermilk
Real Deal Cherry Pie — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
I had the good fortune of a day off right at the beginning of sour cherry season last week (What, you don’t mark the weeks of summer using hyper-seasonal fruit as a guide? Just me?) so I put on some sunscreen and a hat, hopped in the car, and went in search of a u-pick farm. I was not disappointed t

One Bowl Passionfruit Cake with Fluffy Chocolate Frosting — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
I love a cake that you can stir together in one bowl, and this passionfruit cake fits the bill. It is packed with passionfruit flavor and is mouth-puckering tart, but the *ahem generous* swoops of chocolate frosting balance it quite nicely. You could also add an additional 1/4 cup (50g) sugar for a
Pineapple Upside Down Cake, Again — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
I have a thing for upside down cakes , and a special love for pineapple - especially in the winter. They are so bright and tart and juicy and as much as I love citrus this time of year, they are a nice change of pace. I guess I even made a pineapple upside down cake last year right around th
One Bowl Brown Butter Blondies — Apt. 2B Baking Co.
Blondies are one of the easiest bakes around. Just combine a few simple pantry ingredients in one bowl with whatever chocolate you have around, spoon the batter into a pan, and bake. The brown butter and vanilla give these a rich and delicious flavor so don’t skimp on either.
