Frozen Mississippi Mud Pie

Frozen Mississippi Mud Pie

By keepinitkind On August 29, 2014 · 26 Comments · In Dessert, Gluten-Free, Ice Cream, Kid Tested & Approved, Recipes
26
The first words that came out of my mouth when I took my first bite of this frozen Mississippi Mud Pie: Silence. There were no words. Then my poor little chocoholic heart was so overwhelmed with happiness (and probably chocolate) that I began to giggle. Uncontrollably. I considered calling this the “50 Shades of Chocolate [...]

The first time I ever tried frozen yogurt was with my grandma. It was after a particularly frustrating day during my freshman year of highschool (are there any other types of days in highschool?). I’m not sure how she knew or if she knew at all, but after she picked me up from school, she [...]

There was this one time, when I was working in a furniture gallery in Burbank, that I was working all alone because my coworkers had called in “sick” and the store manager had left her position for another job. It was the middle of a season change which meant there was new furniture and we [...]

You guys. This ice cream. I just… I’ve been sitting here with a blank screen for about an hour (I’ve also been shopping for new oven mitts, though, so I haven’t just been sitting here) because I just don’t know where to start with this Snickers ice cream. I’m trying to find a way to [...]

I recently busted the zipper on a pair of jeans. Sure, the jeans were a little snug (they still fit) but I’m mostly certain that it was due to a faulty zipper and the fact that these were probably not a finely-crafted pair of pants (these jeans were actually the replacements to another pair of jeans of the [...]

The first time I ever tried a green tea latte, it was just last year at Urth Caffé in Santa Monica (I love them because they have almond milk). Chris got a chai latte, which is what I also would normally get, but this day I decided to try something new. We carried our drinks [...]

The last 5 months of writing this book have been quite a journey. And I still have 1 month to go. I’ve learned so many things about myself. I’ve learned that I can tolerate leaving clean laundry unfolded, in the baskets for up to 4 days after it’s been washed. I need to keep a [...]

I used to like beer. Really, I did. I even went to Oktoberfest in 2007. But it only takes 1 time to go a little overboard with the beer and you wind up on an overnight train to Amsterdam with no recollection of purchasing tickets and pictures in your camera of your friend wielding a [...]

I know what you’re thinking. That these are just glorified peanut butter popcorn balls, covered in chocolate (But see those little popcorn and peanut pieces decorating the tops? Don’t they make them worthy of the title of Truffle?) You’re probably thinking “This chick does not even own a calendar. Doesn’t she know it’s almost Valentine’s [...]

I used to make granola all the time. Like, every week. A big bowl of granola and almond milk is one of my husband’s favorite breakfasts and since granola is so expensive, I would make our own. Plus, it’s a super easy and somewhat relaxing task that makes your house smell like heaven. Why did [...]

On this blog, I don’t tell people to abstain from gluten or avoid all sugar. I don’t tell people that oil and salt are the roots of all evil. I have nothing bad to say about soy and I think raw vegan food is just as great as cooked vegan food. When a person is [...]

As much as I love chocolate, I’ve never been a fan of hot chocolate. Due to an unfortunate run-in with the stuff as a two year-old (I was very badly burned by it), not only was I physically scarred but subconsciously, a lot of negative emotions became attached to the hot beverage. I tried it [...]

At this time of year, pumpkin pie is totally my jam. Like, a slice of pumpkin pie (coconut whipped cream optional) with a cup of coffee or tea… perhaps with a warm fire burning in the fireplace… while wearing a cozy sweater and/or scarf and/or boots… Yeah, I am all over it. The problem is [...]

Sometimes, a really good chocolate can be better than anything (yes, even that). There is something about a smooth, rich, piece of dark chocolate- the way its scent teases your nose, the way it snaps when you bite into it, the way it melts on your tongue,  and the way everything else around you seems [...]

I’ve always wanted to like caramel apples but I just never could. I remember very distinctly going to an amusement park with my family as a young child.  My mom loves caramel apples so she got one.  She offered me a taste and I carefully took a bite.  It stuck to the roof of my [...]

Growing up, my mom loved to have ice cream in the freezer at all times.  This was a blessing (because what kid doesn’t want access to ice cream 24/7?) as well as a curse (what do you think happens to kids who have access to ice cream 24/7?  If you guessed becoming the “thick” girl [...]

Sometimes, simplest is best. I often forget this, though.  Being the perfectionist that my mother brought me up to be, I often find myself trying to get every detail perfect on whatever it is that I’m working on.  I lose sleep over my to-do list.  I get overwhelmed by deadlines for projects I’m not even [...]
