Whole Foods' vegan vanilla cupcakes are praised for their fluffy and moist texture, making them a top choice for those seeking plant-based options. Customers enjoy the well-balanced frosting made with vegan cream cheese, which complements the cupcake perfectly.

Exploremores are sandwich cookies, similar to another Girl Scout favorite, Do-Si-Dos. Instead of crunchy oatmeal and peanut butter, these offer flavors of chocolate, marshmallow, and toasted almond-flavored crème.

For this taste test, I tried seven cake mixes offered by the brand (similar to my previous ranking of Pillsbury boxed cake mixes). Each cake mix boasted luxurious packaging that hinted to the contents' quality. Moreover, I was pleased to see that Williams Sonoma boasts a pretty unique selection of cake mixes. From olive oil cakes to "snacking cakes" and a couple classic mixes, I had a feeling I was in for a good time.

To create cinnamon roses, fold the dough in half, cut into strips, twist them together, and roll up like tape. The result is a beautiful floral shape.

The Earl Grey chocolate tart fits the role perfectly for Easter, being rich without feeling heavy and fragrant without being fussy, while meeting the expected chocolate quota.

Let's talk about holiday baking that goes beyond cookies! These are the festive winter bakes to try. The list includes an ultra fragrant gingerbread cake, a bright citrus loaf, and the perfect flourless chocolate cake. Few people love baking holiday cookies more than me, but a good amount of my favorite December baking happens outside the cookie platter. Think fragrant spice cakes, all things citrus, buttery, and bright - or deep, melty chocolate on the frostiest nights.

They contain less cocoa butter and often added stabilizers, which are frequently wheat-based, and that's what prevents them from melting smoothly. As such, when you bake chocolate chips into your favorite cookie or brownie recipe, you're not going to have to worry about them losing their shape or absorbing into the batter.

These are espresso cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting, and they're soft, fluffy, and ridiculously delicious. Ultra-soft, fluffy dough (even for first-time bakers) Bold espresso flavor without tasting bitter Easy to make ahead for holidays and weekends Freezer-friendly and reheats beautifully It was my first time making homemade cinnamon rolls, so they weren't the prettiest. The rolling part got messier than expected and I wish I could go back and tell myself, Don't panic they'll still turn out deliciously!

At the risk of editorializing, few things in life are better than peanut butter and the rich, comforting, gooey pleasure it brings, which needs so little in order to be enjoyed - two slices of bread will do, or if you're feeling particularly indulgent and lazy, sometimes just a spoon. This uncomplicated charm is well demonstrated by the fact that perhaps the best peanut butter cookies you will ever taste require only three ingredients, all of which you probably already have in your kitchen.

I love dessert as much as the next person. The existence of dessert is truly one of the best things to have happened to mankind, and I've always had immense respect for people who know how to make these sweet treats. Now, if you're curious like me, you've probably also tried whipping some stuff up in the kitchen (no one's going to ask if you failed. That's between you and your stand mixer).
