    Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Cookies are new on my Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Cookies are new on my site tonight. These cookies were such a labor of love, or some other powerful emotion mixed with determination. In my experience, most pumpkin cookies ride the line between cookie and cake a little too freely. I ventured to create a spice-packed pumpkin cookie worthy of the coziest Fall Day that gives all the PSL vibes in cookie form without being spongy or cakey. It took me a year, but alas, here we are and I cannot stop eating these Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Cookies.  Link: https://kitchenjoyblog.com/pumpkin-white-chocolate-chip-cookies/

    This might be my favorite sourdough recipe I’ve This might be my favorite sourdough recipe I’ve created in quite a while. I set out months ago to recreate a loaf similar to one from a local bakery and after many, MANY rounds of testing, I am happy to report that this Seeded Sourdough Bread recipe is foolproof, trustworthy, and absolutely fantastic. Not too dense or heavy, this loaf delivers on flavor and texture, soft and fluffy with a nutty flavor and perfect amount of crunch. It can be made in a loaf pan (my favorite) or as a freeform round loaf, totally up to you. I've included instructions and photos for both shaping methods.  Link in bio.
