I have been making this Mini Chocolate Cream Pie for a few years now. About twice a month.

I thought I'd told everyone here about it. :LOL:

Its a 7" pie (perfect for we two) and the only change I make is that I use regular pie crust as I don't care for cracker or cookie crusts.

That's right Ross!
My memory is starting to fail me :glare:
I even made that recipe I believe ...
 
LOL. I kinda thought that you had, some time back. :ermm::LOL:

Welcome to fading memory lane. ;)

Ross

:LOL:
Thanks for the warm welcome Ross! :ROFLMAO:

I found it!

I thought that I had made that recipe, that was back in February 2021.
How time flies when we're having fun.
 
Not too long ago, a Crumbl Cookie opened up not far from us.
DH made the executive decision that we needed to have some for dessert today.

But again, he forgot to change out of his house slippers and refused to get out of the car. :LOL:

So I suggested that I go into the shop, take a picture of their display tray of what flavors were being offered this week.
:idea:
Brilliant!

As I suspected, we wound up with a box of 6 `cuz it was double rewards week with an order of 6 or more cookies :blush:

2 Snickerdoodle Cupcake
2 Iced Oatmeal
2 Milk Chocolate Chip

YUM!

With a hot cup of coffee, dessert is served.
We also decided that we'd eat our supper early so that we could dive into that pink box! :ROFLMAO:

I made the grave error of showing DH the cookie cutter from Crumbl (you can kinda see it in the photo above).
It cuts each cookie evenly into 4 pieces.
Now he wants one and they're $9 !!! :blink: NOPE!

I'm betting that you guys have one or two knives around the kitchen? ;-)

Love the cookies! We don't have anything like that around here...but we do have a new store: Nothing Bundt Cakes https://www.nothingbundtcakes.com/?msclkid=86b26c03b4c81ef214f50ea69c9273f0&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Nothing%20Bundt%20Cakes_B_Top%20Brand_National-Radius%20Experiment%206.1.22&utm_term=nothing%20bundt%20cake&utm_content=nothing%20bundt%20cakes

Right-o Ginny! I use disposable plastic knives and just keep one in that pink box at all times ;)

As to Nothing bundt, we had one close to where we lived in SoAZ, but never tried it.
 
We had strawberries with crème fraiche for dessert. (All of the whipping cream I can order on the intertubes has weird stuff in it, even the organic ones.) Had that with some Porto.
 
...but we do have a new store: Nothing Bundt Cakes...
We walked into one a couple years ago (pre-Covid) while on vacation. We thought we'd split a bundtlet, but couldn't decide on a flavor to share. At $5.95 each, we passed on two and ended up with zero. I will admit to being annoyingly frugal, but at almost a buck a bite, I just couldn't justify it. Besides, Himself had just blown the budget getting morning coffee at Caribou instead of McD's. :LOL: Just kidding about the budget thing...
 
We have a Nothing Bundt Cake store, close to our bank.

We drop in for a small cake often. We are addicted to their Raspberry Chocolate Cake. :yum:

I will refrain from speaking of CG's frugality. What is it that the "cool kids" say, "YOLO"? :ermm:;)

I love that one too! But our store claims they only make it once a year, in February, I think? Grrrrrrr.
 
Our local Kroger grocery store had some awesome blueberries on sale yesterday, so I put a carton in my cart.

This morning I made a great blueberry buckle. I've made this before which guarantees it's going to be tasty. Dessert for several days ahead. Yum!

Here's a link to the recipe if anyone wants to try it, too: https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/blueberry-buckle-recipe-2012987.
 
That recipe does look good, Katie. I have some cake flour I want to use up. I bought some pretty berries at Aldi on Monday. I can see this appearing on a counter near us soon. Thanks for the link - I saved it!
