If you’re looking for a great drink to warm up these chilly nights, be sure to try this Hazelnut Mocha! It’s got all of my favorite things in it so I can vouch that I’m obsessed. Personally I don’t think you can ever go wrong with hazelnut, chocolate, coffee, or any combination of those so you know that with all three it has to be good.

I’m also super excited to be participating in a giveaway with the great group of bloggers I’ve been working with these past few months over at the Yellow Bliss Road Creative Team! Kristin has been such an awesome mentor so I’m really excited to continue working with her in 2017! Be sure to scroll down for the giveaway.

Bunny Bum Cake Pops

Bunny Bum Cake Pops - The Culinary CompassI’ve never made cake pops before, but after I saw this blog post on Rose Bakes, I knew I had an activity for Easter. They were just too funny not to try.

I will say that cake pops are not for the faint of heart. After melting a ton of white chocolate, crumbling a ton of cake into the chocolate, and starting multiple times, I got a few that were picture worthy. Note how I purposely blurred that background. ?…

Oscars Night Snacks - The Culinary Compass

Oscars night is one of my favorites of the award show season just for the pure glitz and glamour of the entire event. The celebrities look gorgeous and are probably really hungry… while I’m in sweats and munching on this AMAZING copycat Moose Munch and sipping on my Red Carpet cocktail debating on which dress I would wear if I were ever in that situation.
