Hey guys, it’s me again– and today, with a recipe that I love: German Chocolate Brownies.
I remember when I was a little kid, probably around 9 years old, my mom made a German Chocolate Cake for our family… I honestly can’t remember the occasion for sure, but in my mind I always think of it as having been my birthday cake, since I thought it was so special, and I loved it so much.
I believe I have found my favourite banana bread recipe. It’s soft, it’s nutty, it’s not too sweet (it has CHOCOLATE!), and it’s whole wheat. Also, it’s really easy to make, and with it you can use up your old overripe bananas (pictured later in this post). If you haven’t made banana bread before, using […]

Today I’m going to share a long-time family favourite recipe, featuring my sweet younger sister Tabithah, with whom I’ve thought for a long time would be fun to make a cooking video. She is hilarious. I know you can’t tell by these pictures, but trust me. It’s true. The main drawback I have to that idea […]

So, today, I have decided to do it – It is soooooo amazing looking, I just had to share! The recipe is super […]
I mentioned last week that I have been on the lookout for some grain-free, sugar-free recipes, and… look what I found! This is the epitome of simple, healthy, and delicious – because what’s not to love about a cookie packed with coconut?? The recipe is 4 ingredients and only takes a few minutes to whip […]
Vegan, gluten free, easy, dark chocolate, and truffles. Need I say more? This recipe for coconut cream truffles is so simple, so delicious, and so beautiful that I think they pretty much make the perfect gift (for yourself or someone else!). Why this recipe A few years ago, well before my blog was called NaomiCakes, […]

The secret to this success? Simple. Step 1 – Follow the the directions for making my Butter Croissant Dough exactly. Step […]
