No matter what I do, I just can't stay away from the goat cheese for long. It has a creaminess that works so well in baked goods, and I find it always offers this slight tanginess that balances sweet so well. It has worked beautifully in ice cream, cheesecake, and even frosting, but would it work in cookies? I gave my classic thumbprints a goat cheese makeover, and the result was divine!

Pumpkin & Goat Cheese Muffins with Candied Bacon
For some reason muffins remind me of lazy Sundays, slowing down, and taking a break. I also love them because they give me an excuse to eat dessert for breakfast!

I may have gotten a bit overly excited yesterday when I found out that pumpkin coffee is back at Dunkin Donuts, and for the past week my Michael Kors boots have been eyeing me every time I go in my dressing room! ...
Peach Almond Crumble & Goat Cheese Ice Cream
I love how the juices bubble up through the crumble! Makes such a statement! There is something captivating about a perfectly ripe peach. Their natural sweetness and vibrant color bring summer to life.

I wanted to demo a dessert that would really highlight the peaches so I decided to go with my peach and ...
