In this recipe, I've created a much creamier, parm and leek version of the classic twice-baked potato. To create a super creamy texture, I mashed the potatoes with a parmesan sauce. And to add some contrast, I added a crispy bread crumb topping.

These muffin top cookies are not a replica of Panera's Pumpkin Muffies, but they are delicious in their own right and a nostalgic nod to the concept. Not quite a cookie, not quite a muffin, but very tasty indeed.

My frittata game started several years ago with Cookie and Kate's first guide to making frittatas (she's since created an updated version).

Popcorn is my weakness, you guys. When I was younger, I ate popcorn almost every day. I liked it buttery, caramel-y, salty, kettled…anything. Today I still love me some popcorn (especially the half-popped bits…literally salivating as I type) with a dash of oil and salt. In this version, I'm taking it up a notch by adding some fall flavors.
