My affinity for chai has been previously documented on Musings on Momentum so, in many ways, this whiskey chai cocktail recipe has been a long time coming. After all, what could be better than combining my favorite tea with one of my favorite alcoholic beverages? As it turns out, it doesn’t get much better than this delicious concoction. This whiskey chai cocktail recipe is deliciously full-bodied yet drinkable, making it the perfect way to warm up on even the coldest of winter days.
The temperature has yet to dip below 65 degrees in Los Angeles, but I’m still trying to get into the autumn spirit any and every way I can. The best way to infuse a bit of fall into my life? By creating a recipe for gluten free pumpkin spiced cookies, of course!
This week’s recipe is something just a little different in that it is geared towards the canine in your life. If you happen to not have a canine in your life, please feel free to skip over this post. I promise to return to regularly scheduled human-geared programming next week.
I have been wanting to make homemade dog treats for Lola for the longest time and decided that her seventh birthday was the perfect time to give it a try! There are a plethora of dog treat recipes available online to wade through, a mind boggling amount in fact. I ultimately created my own recipe based on her dietary restrictions (she doesn’t eat too much grain), what human foods she enjoys the taste of and, admittedly, what I thought would also be acceptable for human consumption. I was curious to see what they tasted like!
Based on Lola’s reaction I think I hit it out of the ball park with this recipe. Not only did she adore them, they’re also healthy and actually make a decent human snack as well.
The name of these cookies is not an exaggeration. They are truly magical. Possibly even a little sinful, making them a perfect indulgence for this time of year. We can all wait until 2016 to worry about losing a few pounds in cookie weight, right? I promise you that these are worth a couple of extra sessions at the gym.
I have a secret. I have been selfishly withholding what is possibly the yummiest breakfast dish EVER from you. I didn’t mean to keep this gem to myself; I have actually been planning on sharing it for months now. But then June turned into September which turned into December and in the blink of an eye I found myself smack dab in the middle of the holiday season, still clutching this recipe close to my chest. Ultimately I don’t think the timing could have worked out better because it just so happens that this berry crumble is the perfect breakfast to whip up when you need to dazzle a houseful of guests.
