Banana Chocolate Buckwheat Donuts
Donuts are the perfect breakfast treat. What I can’t get behind is serving them frequently to my kids. I went in search of finding a way to incorporate donuts into our lives more and that meant figuring out a healthier version. Enter these Banana Buckwheat Donuts. In addition to wanting to throw a donut party, this post is apart of a virtual potluck … a different kind of party, but equally fun. You can click-through to the previous or next recipes below to see what bloggers from Vancouver are contributing.

Baileys and Oreo Tart
I have wanted to use Oreos in a recipe for the longest time. I LOVE Oreo cookies. I don’t love drinking milk, but hand me a box of Oreos and a tall glass of milk and you won’t see me until I’m stuffed. This Baileys and Oreo Tart recipe feels festive with the Baileys, but it still generic enough to serve throughout Fall or Winter. It contains 6 ingredients and is almost no-bake. Tons of awesome flavour and hardly any time in the kitchen is always a win in my opinion.

Cookie Party – Salted Dark Chocolate Dipped Toffee Shortbread Cookies
It’s holiday baking season and what’s Christmas without cookies? Good old St. Nick would probably have a thing or two to say about no cookies come Christmas Eve. I have a whole week stuffed with amazing cookies planned and this is a worthy start. I was beyond excited when my friend Kate from The Wood and Spoon asked if I wanted to participate in a real life cookie exchange with other food bloggers. I was a huge yes and immediately started scheming on what kind of cookies I would send out. I wanted to ship my fellow food blogger Teri at No Crumbs Left something festive, but outrageously delicious. I hope she thinks these Salted Chocolate Dipped Toffee Shortbread Cookies live up to expectations! Big thanks to Rebecca from Displaced Housewife for hosting this cookie party!

Coffee Toffee – The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook Club Review
The 3rd Cookbook Club meeting reviewed Deb Perelman’s “The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook” and I made the Coffee Toffee from the cookbook. We had 12 members present which is a really great representation of recipes from the book as it resulted in 12 different dishes being sampled. As usual, our club was ruthless in its review – which I love. I was really keen to hear what everyone thought about the book overall as I have fairly mixed emotions about it. It’s witty and funny in its writing, but sometimes the recipes can fall flat or are lacklustre. Our group was split on a final call of between 5 or 6 out of 10 overall. This overall rating means we’re happy we tried and would seek a recipe or 2 from SmittenKitchen.com in the future, but are not running out to purchase the cookbook.

How to Host an Ice Cream Social and 2 No-Churn Ice Creams
This past long weekend marked my baby girl, Lucy’s 1st birthday. It was a medium-sized party, with family and friends who were in town for the long weekend. I had previously decided to host an ice cream social as Lucy LOVES ice cream. She will throw a fit if she sees anyone eating ice cream near her and they aren’t sharing it. She’s very confident in knowing what she wants at any given time 😉 What’s an ice cream social? To me, it’s a party where building something ice cream related (in our case sundaes) and being social. Everyone got to build an ice cream sundae and it was really fun watching the kids pick and choose their toppings. And, Lucy had an amazing time. She handled all the sugar and attention like a champ.
Randomly, I found a lot of ice cream related party decorations which aren’t necessary, but definitely added to the occasion. The ice cream waffle cones on the wall are from London Fields Shoppe here in Vancouver, BC (no affiliations, I love the products they carry and it is run by a lovely local family – they do ship if you’re keen to get your hands on the waffle cones). The ice cream truck and ice cream cups with wooden scoops are from Meri Meri Party Supplies which I purchased from The Cross, also local (no affiliations to either, I will say nothing but excellent things about The Cross, in particular how excellent their customer service is).
To host an ice cream social 3 things need to be lined up:
- Ice cream – there are 2 no-churn ice cream recipes below, quickly mix and freeze the night before for homemade ice cream! I also purchased a coconut milk based ice cream as I had 2 guests that could not eat dairy. If you’d like a vegan no-churn ice cream recipe, check one out here.
- Sprinkles – let’s be honest, what’s an ice cream birthday without sprinkles?
- Guests – watching everyone hum and haw about their choices was great. It sparked some good conversation and the kids were adorable!

Vanilla and Chocolate No-Churn Ice Cream with Hot Fudge Sauce
No-churn ice cream is a breeze to make and what better way to top it off than with a 2 ingredient hot fudge sauce?!
15 minPrep Time
5 minCook Time
20 minTotal Time
Save RecipeIngredients
- 3 x 330 ml (10oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
- 4 cups / 1 litre whipping cream
- 2 tsp vanilla bean paste (or high quality extract)
- 12 oz. / 340 gr. semi-sweet chocolate, roughly chopped and divided in half
Instructions
- Take half the chopped chocolate (6 oz.) and melt chocolate using the double boil method (a small heatproof bowl set above, but not touching, a small amount of simmering water) or in short bursts in the microwave (20-30 seconds). Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, whisk whipping cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. Add vanilla and mix until just combined.
- Fold in 2 cans of condensed milk. Divide the whipping cream/condensed milk mixture in half. Place half in an air tight container and freeze for at least 8 hrs, preferably overnight.
- Gently fold melted chocolate in with remaining half of whipping cream/condensed milk mixture. Place in an airtight container and freeze for at least 8 hrs, preferably overnight.
- Take remaining half of chopped chocolate (6 oz.) and can of condensed milk and place in a heatproof bowl or container (I used a glass mason jar), heat in the microwave in short bursts (30 seconds) mixing after each burst until chocolate is melted. If not serving immediately, reheat in the microwave and stir before serving (I made mine the day before).
