date night desserts 🍨

big fans of ice cream and even bigger fans of @haagendazs_us because not only do they clearly label their products but they also have SO many gluten free options!

in 2024 I feel like started to find my groove as a creator! I felt more comfortable in front of the camera, created recipes I didn’t know I could come up with, mastered my gluten free sourdough, and started sharing other aspects of my life I used to be nervous to share!

social media is the most infuriating and incredible place to be all in one and im so excited to keep creating & sharing in 2025!

i recently discovered that if you google “gluten free russian tea cakes” that this is one of the top recipes that shows up!

all i know is that my Nana would be so proud because she taught me this recipe! i miss her even more during christmas time but making a batch of her tea cakes helps me feel closer to her! 🥹

i hope you love these as much as i (and apparently google) do!

if you don’t feel like googling it, you can comment “tea cakes” and I’ll send you the recipe!

Have you heard of the viral “marry me” recipes? Well this is my version — Slow Cooker Beef Chuck Ragu!

This recipe is the ultimate comfort meal, is so easy to make, but the finished product is SO impressive!

I used my favorite beef chuck from @uswellnessmeats to make this divine dinner! I paired it with a dry red wine and lots of herbs for the most delicious dinner!

Don’t quote me on it but im pretty sure this recipe will have anyone saying “I do!”

recipe is up on @foodsocial.io but if you comment “pasta” I’ll send you the recipe directly!

my gluten free “faux Joe” tiramisu is a unique twist on an Italian classic!

when @foodsocial.io challenged Creators to make a recipe with @drinksipherbals cinnamon roll “faux Joe” I knew that I wanted to think outside the box! I started to think about all the recipes I love that traditionally have coffee that I could attempt to remake!

After trying the “faux Joe” I instantly knew that the flavors would be perfect with spiced rum in a tiramisu! By no means is this recipe traditional, but it definitely is delicious!
