1. Zucchini Bread (Left) and Pumpkin Bread (Right)Recently I have loved baking different breads, especially with fall flavors :)I was sad to say that the cinnamon/nutmeg/cloves weren’t as prominent in this pumpkin loaf because I put too much pumpkin puree in (whoops…), this is still probably one of my favorite pumpkin bread recipes because it turns out so light and fluffy. And with a bit if whipped cream, you are all set! :)Also, my friend actually gave me the recipe for her mom’s zucchini bread, so I couldn’t take any credit for this! :P  I don’t know how her mom does it, but the bread turned out FANTASTIC when I made it!!! :) And so I shall keep that recipe forever……THANK YOU :D HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!! <3

  4. Banana Chocolate Chip Crepe Omlettes!!! Now of course these are not actual Omlettes, but the way I folded the crepe was pretty much the same :) I melted chocolate in the middle of these banana crepes and they were awesome!!!! Finally a recipe I created :) (although all I did was add chocolate haha)

  5. Watermelon Tart FINALLY I moved away from all of the sweets that are making me fatter every day and went to this delightful recipe :) and yes&#8230;..it is made completely out of WATERMELON (yum &lt;3). Pretty much the rest is just vanilla yogurt, and whatever berries/nuts you want to decorate your tart with! Just make sure you eat it immediately!!!!! (kinda learned that the hard way when I tried to save it in my fridge&#8230;..) SUCCESS! (Sort of&#8230;!)

  7. Mini Chocolate Souffles Although it was very rewarding, I kind of never want to make this again&#8230;&#8230;. &gt;:P It was definitely a challenge!!!!! However, I really did learn a lot about how to handle egg yolks and fluff them up in order to keep the souffle raised!  And they didn&#8217;t start to sink for a good 5 minutes since they were mini (which was a GREAT idea; props to the girl I got this recipe from!!!). But yeah&#8230;&#8230;souffles are a bitch :P Hopefully if I do make more in the future, I won&#8217;t waste a dozen eggs&#8230;&#8230;..

  8. Oreo Peanut Butter Pie Now I really enjoyed making this!  I think creating an oreo crust, as well as sprinkling a few whole/crushed oreo cookies on top balanced out the richness of the peanut butter PERFECTLY!  No more D-Hall pie for me!!! I can make my own now! (but d-hall is still good &lt;3 )(Those of you who are fellow dukes, you will know what I&#8217;m talking about haha.) ;)

  9. Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes with Butter Cream Frosting :) This was actually the first recipe that I tried over the summer! I thought it was so awesome that, in addition to the cupcake being funfetti (which is the best cake EVER), there was a secret suprise you would put inside&#8230;..COOKIE DOUGH! :)  And I actually made the cookie dough from scratch myself ;)Of course, the butter cream was the perfect topping with a few semi-sweet chocolate chips!  YAY &lt;3
