Chocolate Cake with Peppermint Stracciatella Buttercream

Hi! I’m Jennifer and I LOVE to bake, style, and photograph beautiful desserts–I also have an eternal weakness for pastels, berries, and silky buttercreams.

What brings me even more joy is sharing my love of baking with others. Whether that is through recipe development, decorating how-tos, or food photography tips, I want to share everything I have learned with YOU!

I believe in creating food with high quality ingredients and making it look GORGEOUS. I also believe that every dessert deserves a photoshoot, and that food is meant to be shared.

And butter; I believe in lots of butter.

Need a nutritiously filling and delicious breakfas

Need a nutritiously filling and delicious breakfast to save your mornings? This recipe is just the thing: Blueberry Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal! 🫐

I love it so much because everything gets dumped in a baking dish, baked, and then can be enjoyed for the rest of the week. It even freezes super well so you can reheat individual portions any morning you’re in a pinch! 🙌🏼

It offers plenty of nutrition too, from the oats to the fruit, to the pumpkin seeds and the coconut oil! It’s the perfect post-Holiday breakfast. And all the ingredients can be found at @SaveOnFoods, of course!

Oh! And it must be enjoyed with a generous drizzling of maple syrup. SO good! 🤩

#SaveOnFoods #OurWesternFamily @WesternFamilyCA

Recipe:

2 1/2 cups Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
2 1/2 cups, Rolled Oats

1 1/2 cups Milk (if using frozen fruit and 1 3/4 cup if using fresh fruit)
2 Eggs
3 Tbsp Coconut Oil
1/2 cup Pecans

WF Pure Maple Syrup

Instructions:
Put 2 cups of the blueberries at the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
