Mexican Chocolate is dark chocolate with spices such as cinnamon and chipotle. Sweet Jumbles’ Mexican Hot Chocolate Marshmallow is one of our bestselling products, so I’ve decided to make a little recipe to showcase it. This recipe starts as a traditional shortbread bar, but amped up with chocolate and spices, and then layered with marshmallow and a hard chocolate shell topping. Continue reading

Eggnog Florentines
We got our first snowfall yesterday, and although where I live it all turned into rain ice, it was nice to watch while it lasted. These past few days, including yesterday, I did a bit of baking. So, today I bring to you Eggnog Florentines. Continue reading
Butterscotch Gingerbread Cookies
It’s Christmas Cookie season! We’ve wrapped up our marshmallow-making (now desperately hoping that USPS delivers!) and are now into the cooking-baking zone. I love gingersnaps and ginger cake (which is odd, considering I don’t care for the actual ginger root). So, today I tested out some Butterscotch Gingerbread cookies – for the win! Santa will be satisfied. Continue reading

Clementine Chocolate Cake – gluten free
Today I share with you a wonderful recipe for Clementine Cake. I know, that sounds unusual, but it was pretty easy and unexpected. The cake is really moist and not too overwhelming. And, for those of you who care, it’s gluten free! Honestly that didn’t even occur to me until I was mid-baking, but yay for those of you who are looking for something new that is flourless. This cake is also one of those that tastes better the next day – if you’re lucky enough to have leftovers, that is. Because I’m not taking my baked goods into the office anymore, I always have leftovers nowadays, and you might be in the same boat. Continue reading

Easy S’Mores Danish
20 of the past 27 days have been over 90 degrees here. Consequently, I haven’t been baking a whole lot. This Danish was an exception – it’s what I call a “cheat” recipe, using pre-made ingredients…but sometimes that’ll have to do. The baking time is short and so isn’t too painful. Continue reading

Today, we tackle the traditional favorite of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry – aka Neapolitan. Continue reading
Bacon Toffee Cookies
Have you gained your COVID-15 yet?
Like many, I’ve been doing a lot of baking during the shut-down, and this Bacon Toffee Cookie is based on several other recipes that I came across and modified into one new cookie. Clearly, not something for vegetarians. Continue reading

Marshmallow Peanut Butter Cobbler
It’s something like day 742 of the shutdown, and I found flour, so I’ve been baking. I’m running low on butter, so we’ll see how long the baking lasts. My sourdough starter is taking forever to expand, which the interwebs claims is not a problem, and since I’ve got all the time in the world I’m rolling with it. Continue reading

Vanilla Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting
I have lots of time at home to bake, which is I guess a silver lining at the moment…. The Quarantine Fifteen is coming fast.
This recipe is for a standard vanilla cupcake with peanut butter frosting. Let’s be real, the point of this recipe is the peanut butter frosting. I highly recommend you put it on any and all of your favorite cakes. It makes everything – even a global pandemic – slightly better while you are eating it. Continue reading
