  • I needed to take a vacation from social media. Do you forgive me if I give you lots of cookies? Hit the Save button to keep the recipe OR follow the link in my profile @megiswell ⬇️ https://megiswell.com/chocolate-cookies-with-peppermint-chips/ Chocolate Cookies with Peppermint Chips Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/4 teaspoon espresso powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 and 1/4 cups butter, softened 2 cups sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 drops peppermint extract 10-ounce bag Ghirardelli peppermint chunks 2 to 3 crushed candy canes (optional) Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Stir the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together. Beat the sugar and butter together with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla, and peppermint, and beat on medium until just combined. Slowly beat in the flour mixture. Stir in the peppermint chunks. Use a medium-sized cookie scooper to measure out the dough and place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with some crushed candy canes if desired. Bake 8 to 9 minutes. Cool for 3 minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer the cookies to cooling racks. The cookies will be very soft and puffy and will flatten as they cool. #holidaybaking #christmascookies #bakeandshare #bakersgonnabake #bakefromscratch #thebakefeed #bakeit #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #marthabakes #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #eattheworld #cookit #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodphotography #bhgfood #mycommontable #williamssonoma @williamssonoma #bareaders #rslove #megiswell
  • The shatter on these pastries was insane, and messy in the best possible way 😂⠀ ⠀ 📍 La Farine Boulangerie Patisserie in #oaklandca ⠀ ⠀ This weekend, I'll be celebrating a friend's birthday in SF by eating ramen, mochi, soft serve, and hotpot while attempting to pretend I'm karaoke singing.⠀ ⠀ Because the air quality is so bad, most of the day we will be snacking on Japanese snacks while hanging out inside an air-filtered apartment, but I'll be rocking a mask anytime I go outside 😷⠀ ⠀ What are your plans?⠀ ⠀ #eater #eatersf #f52grams #SFguide #bestofbayarea #oaklandeats #oakland #bayareafoodie #oldoakland #sfeats #oaklandandloveit #bestfoodinoakland #sffoodie #eattheworld #foodandwine #lifeandthyme #foodphotography #eeeeeats #saveurmag #mycommontable #tastemade #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #bareaders #vscofood #theartofslowliving #rslove #realsimple #cntravelereats
  • I now make this Holiday Mulled Wine with Apple Cider and Brandy for both Thanksgiving AND Christmas. That's how much my family likes it. The link to the recipe is in my profile @megiswell⠀ ⠀ I include a fast stove top method of making it as well as how to make it in a slow cooker. ⠀ ⠀ And if you feel like drinking mulled wine when you have no company except for Netflix, I've also included instructions on how to make an individual serving, just for you 😉⠀ ⠀ #mulledwine #feedfeed @thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed.cocktails #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #thekitchn #f52grams #foodwinewomen #foodandwine #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #onthetable #wprecipemaker #foodstyling #foodphotography #bhgfood #saveurmag #mycommontable #onmytable #tastemade #bareaders #rslove #realsimple #handcraftedcocktails #driiiiinks #drinkstagram #holidaycocktails #cocktailphotography #boglevineyards @boglevineyards #winecocktails ⠀

  • This Cookie Crust Pumpkin Pie with Salted Caramel and 7-Minute Frosting is on the blog now (recipe link is in my profile @megiswell)⠀ ⠀ I often crave more flavors in pumpkin pie. The molasses or ginger cookie crust and salted caramel punch up the flavor profile of a standard pumpkin pie recipe.⠀ ⠀ The 7-Minute Frosting is a nod to how much pumpkin reminds me of sweet potato. And every Thanksgiving, we always have sweet potato casserole with a topping of roasted marshmallows. The 7-Minute Frosting sits like a fluffy cloud on top of the pie, making each bite velvety soft.⠀ ⠀ #pumpkinpie #thanksgivingdessert #bakeandshare #bakersgonnabake #bakefromscratch #thebakefeed #bakeit #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #marthabakes #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #eattheworld #cookit #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodphotography #bhgfood #mycommontable #bareaders #mywilliamssonoma @williamssonoma #megiswell
  • I've got a mulled wine recipe coming to the blog later this week. ⠀ ⠀ But on a more serious note, I've been living in a smoky haze for the past 3 days because of the #campfire that completely destroyed the town of Paradise. ⠀ ⠀ This is one that's touched, in a devastating way, family and friends. A good friend's aunt lost everything and family have lost a total of four homes.⠀ ⠀ This is going to be a marathon, not a sprint. 26,000 people of Paradise will need a trickle of steady support to last them a good while. ⠀ ⠀ Butte County Emergency Services is using @caringchoices in Chico to coordinate emergency volunteers and you can also donate money on their site 👉 http://www.caring-choices.org/wild-fire-donations.html⠀ ⠀ @americanredcross and @att have teamed up and if you text CAWILDFIRES to 90999, you can make a $10 donation⠀ ⠀ United Way of Northern California Relief Fund: To donate text BUTTEFIRE to 91999⠀ ⠀ GoFundMe 👉 https://www.gofundme.com/cause/californiafires⠀ ⠀ The link in my profile @megiswell is to a GoFundMe campaign for family members who have lost everything.⠀ ⠀ To all those suffering as a result of the #californiawildfires, I'm sending all my love and support ❤⠀ ⠀ #paradisecalifornia #mulledwine #holidaydrinks #feedfeedcocktails #feedfeed @thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed.cocktails #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #buzzfeast #thekitchn #f52grams #huffposttaste #foodwinewomen #foodandwine #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #onthetable #foodstyling #foodphotography #bhgfood #saveurmag #mycommontable #onmytable #bareaders #rslove #realsimple #handcraftedcocktails #driiiiinks ⠀
  • Chewy molasses cookies or crispy molasses cookies? I can't choose a favorite.⠀ ⠀ Is it all right that the next couple of months are solely devoted to desserts and drinks?⠀ ⠀ #molassescookies #holidaycookies #bakeit #thebakefeed #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #marthabakes #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #eattheworld #cookit #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodstyling #foodphotography #bhgfood #saveurmag #mycommontable #bareaders #vscocook #rslove #realsimple #megiswell⠀
  • I'm baking a lot this week, making up to 70 cupcake versions of this Sweet Potato Cake with Swiss Buttercream + a completely different healthier baby smash cake for a nephew's birthday and baptism. ⠀ ⠀ Cinnamon, ginger, and a little Chinese five spice blend + @bravetart's roasted sugar in both the cake and buttercream make this cake simple and delicious. ⠀ ⠀ #sweetpotatocake #cakesofig #bakeandshare #bakersgonnabake #bakefromscratch #thebakefeed #bakeit #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #marthabakes #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #eattheworld #cookit #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #foodphotography #bhgfood #mycommontable #bareaders #rslove #realsimple #megiswell⠀

  • So I always find it really hard to make bread puddings, stuffings, or casseroles look amazing. I haven't figured it out yet. But you can turn your savory Thanksgiving leftovers into a Savory French Toast Casserole and the recipe link is in my profile @megiswell I used French bread that was so stale, it shattered. It creates a soft and fluffy texture on all parts of the bread that are soaked well, and a crouton-like crunch on all parts left exposed, giving you the best of both worlds. This one is a mix of cranberry sauce, diced turkey, gouda, and extra sharp white cheese. But I change up the cheeses depending on what's leftover from the Thanksgiving charcuterie board. #thanksgivingleftovers #frenchtoastcasserole #thecookfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #mypinterest @Pinterest #storyofmytable #styleonmytable #mystoryoflight #buzzfeast #thekitchn #cookCL #f52grams #eattheworld #huffposttaste #foodwinewomen #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodstyling #foodphotography #bhgfood #saveurmag #marthafood #bareaders #mywilliamssonoma @williamssonoma #realsimple #megiswell
