What I Bookmarked This Week

Loving the glaze on this chocolate chip pound cake.

Totally trying this juicy pork tenderloin recipe; I always think theyโ€™re so dry!

We love pierogies at our house, so these sheet pan pierogies with caramelized onions and chipotle sour cream are definitely going on our Lent menu!

Looks and sounds so amazing! >> Caramel Butter Cake with Fudgy Chocolate Frosting

A classic and this version looks amazing! >> Pastitsio

Have a delicious weekend!
