Today I wanted to share our favorite treats! I've been making some of these as we've been home the last two weeks and I'm sure I'll make more before this is all over :)
Better than Box Brownies
These are the closest to box brownies that I've ever found, homemade. They are actually better than box brownies because they aren't too sweet but still rich and just the right texture.

Lemon Bars
I've always loved lemon bars and basically any pastry. This is a recipe I got from the booklet that came with our blender as a teenager.

Chocolate/White Chocolate Chip Cookies
This is my favorite texture for cookies, if you get the flour amount right. They are soft and fluffy and the white chocolate chips make them my absolute favorite.

Inside Out Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are amazing! They have the richest, moist-est chocolate cookies. Do NOT get too much flour.
You can also leave out the chocolate chips and put cream cheese frosting between two to make the most amazing homemade Oreos ever. I've also put ice cream between two, wrapped it in plastic wrap, and left in the freezer for a few hours to make a homemade ice cream sandwich. When I make both these recipes, I use a 1/2 tbsp to scoop rather than a full tablespoon.

Pumpkin Pie Cookies
These use almond flour, but they have the best texture, just like pumpkin pie. I never put in the chocolate chips. Ben loves them plain, I love them with a little dollop of whipped cream on top (which is actually how we both like our pumpkin pie as well).

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
The flavor of these cookies is amazing. Don't get too much flour and they are super moist as well.

This is my favorite muffin recipe. They are so moist and yummy!

Healthier Cheesecake
This is a really yummy cheesecake with some added protein to help balance it a little.

Chocolate Zucchini Cake
This is my mother-in-law's recipe and it makes such a moist cake!

Cinnamon Rolls
Cinnamon Rolls are so yummy! I use my bread machine to mix up the dough before rolling them out. I also make a cream cheese frosting for the top (beat 8 ounces cream cheese and 1/4 cup butter, softened; add 2 tsp vanilla and 1 cup powered sugar).

Fry Donuts (Glazed)
These are some of the best and easiest fry donuts! I use my bread machine to mix them as well.

Puffed Wheat Cereal
This is one of Ben's favorite treats and it's fairly easy and inexpensive. I buy my puffed red wheat off of Vitacost.

This is a little more work, but my absolute favorite pie!

The Best Apple Pie
Ben's favorite pie is apple pie and this is his favorite recipe because it's not too sweet. I get very green apples when I make this. I use the same pie crust recipe as above. I usually don't use the lemon juice.

Pumpkin Pie
This was my grandma's recipe and is everyone's favorite pumpkin pie; it has just the right amount of seasonings versus pumpkin flavor.

Chocolate Ice Cream
This is our homemade ice cream recipe and it's amazing. You can make vanilla by simply leaving out the cocoa and lessening the sweetener a little. If you don't have an ice cream machine, this recipe works poured into Popsicle molds to make homemade creamies.

Raspberry Sherbet
Same considerations as the chocolate ice cream

Cream Cheese Ice Cream
This is my personal favorite of our homemade flavors. It is so creamy and has a rich cream cheese flavor. I love to eat it with a few raspberries mixed in. Ben likes it with graham crackers sprinkled on top.
A note: it's very important to use unsweetened almond milk. Regular cow's milk adds flavor and diminishes the cream cheese flavor.

Popsicles
These use only fruit juice and beef gelatin, but they are yummy. They are also lower mess, because of the gelatin. Our kids LOVE these.

Hot Chocolate
This is the creamiest hot chocolate and just the right amount of sweet. I use dutch cocoa powder.

White Hot Chocolate
This is one of our favorites! It's seriously like drinking warm ice cream and is super easy to put together.
