-☕️ The Morning Menu Apparently buying pumpkin co -☕️ The Morning Menu

Apparently buying pumpkin cookie butter wasn’t an option when I could just make it myself. 😂🎃

Homemade pumpkin cookie butter melted into espresso with steamed milk for today’s latte…and yeah, this one tastes exactly like fall should. 🤎☕️

Warm, creamy, spiced, and just enough pumpkin without taking over the whole coffee.

-🥐 Fresh From the Bakery Today’s baking request c -🥐 Fresh From the Bakery

Today’s baking request came from my youngest: sugar cookies with PINK frosting. 🩷🍪

Big, soft vanilla sugar cookies with a little almond extract and a very generous layer of pink cream cheese frosting.

Safe to say his vision came together pretty well. 😂🩷

-☕️ The Morning Menu Had to run the Red Velvet Ca -☕️ The Morning Menu

Had to run the Red Velvet Cake Latte back because yesterday’s was way too good to be a one-time thing. 😂❤️

And yes, we’re still turning leftover cream cheese frosting into cold foam.

Red Velvet Cake Iced Latte ❤️

• 1 tbsp white chocolate sauce
• 1 tbsp dark chocolate sauce
• Vanilla bean paste
• Double espresso
• Ice
• 5–6 oz whole milk

Cream Cheese Frosting Cold Foam
• ½ tbsp cream cheese frosting
• 1 tbsp heavy cream
• 2 tbsp whole milk

Mix the white chocolate, dark chocolate and vanilla bean paste into the hot espresso. Pour over ice and milk.

Froth the frosting, heavy cream and whole milk until thick and creamy, then pour it right over the top.

Leftover cake frosting in my morning coffee? Absolutely. 😂☕️❤️

-🍨 What’s the Scoop? | Scoop No. 03 Cap’n Crunch -🍨 What’s the Scoop? | Scoop No. 03

Cap’n Crunch Cereal Milk🥣

This one started with me thinking, “What if I just turn the cereal milk into ice cream?”…and obviously I had to find out. 😂

Cap’n Crunch steeped right into the cream + milk, my ridiculously rich 7-yolk custard, and even more cereal layered throughout.

Did I slightly scramble some of those yolks along the way? Yes.

Did we let that stop us? Absolutely not. 😂

Scoop No. 03 is DONE…and she survived the scrambled egg incident.

Now I need Scoop No. 04. What are we making next? 👀🍨

-☕️ The Morning Menu Yesterday’s red velvet cake -☕️ The Morning Menu

Yesterday’s red velvet cake became today’s coffee because apparently nothing in this kitchen gets to have just one purpose. 😂❤️

White chocolate, dark chocolate and vanilla bean paste with espresso over ice and milk…then I took some of the cream cheese frosting from the cake, added heavy cream + milk and turned THAT into cold foam.

Red velvet cake latte with cream cheese frosting cold foam. Yeah…I’d do this again. 😂☕️❤️

Sometimes you just need a red velvet cake. ❤️😂

Soft, ridiculously moist red velvet with a thick layer of cream cheese frosting…and that cake-to-frosting ratio was exactly what I wanted.

No crazy flavor combinations this time. No brown butter. No “let me just add one more thing.” 😂 I actually left the red velvet alone and let her do what she does.

And she did it WELL. ❤️

Keeping it simple today…or at least that was the plan. 😂🤎

White chocolate, cinnamon and vanilla with espresso, poured over ice and milk, then finished with a dark chocolate drizzle.

Basically somewhere between a white chocolate latte and “I saw the chocolate sauce and kept going.” 😂☕️

• 1 tbsp white chocolate sauce
• Cinnamon
• Vanilla
• Double espresso
• Ice
• Milk
• Dark chocolate drizzle

Same dough. Same pizza night. Completely different crust. 😂

Made this week’s half cheese, half pepperoni pizza in the cast iron skillet and I fear there’s no going back now.

That crispy golden bottom with the soft, fluffy inside?? SO much better. 🤌🏽🍕

Cast iron officially won Pizza Saturdays.

Yesterday’s coffee, just a little less sweet today. 🤎☕️

Same white chocolate, caramel, cinnamon, vanilla bean paste and pinch of salt…just cut the syrups in half and honestly…I think I might like it even better this way. 😂

Sometimes the recipe doesn’t need changing…just a little adjusting.

• ½ tbsp white chocolate sauce
• ½ tbsp caramel sauce
• Cinnamon
• Vanilla bean paste
• Pinch of salt
• Double espresso
• Ice
• Milk
