I might be the only person in the history of the world that has ever been grounded from baking. That's right. When I was a teen, it wasn't the computer, or the phone or the tv that got taken away. For me, it was the unsalted butter. From an early age I learned there was nothing I loved more than making other people happy - and in high school, I discovered the best way to do this was to offer them a homemade sweet treat.
Since then, my life has taken me in a million different directions. I have lived everywhere from California, to New York City to a small town in the Bavarian forest in Southern Germany. Life has had its ups and downs, but no matter where I went or what I did, I always ended up back in the kitchen. Eventually, I decided to stop searching for the "perfect career" and start doing what I loved. Now Sprinkles for Breakfast is my full-time job! Not only do I get to bake colorful and tasty treats, but I also get to encourage people like you that it is time to stop with self-doubt and start baking!

It’s pretty easy to turn any cookie into a themed cookie when you have @sweetsindeed sprinkles! If you are baking up something lucky this weekend, see what sprinkles we still have available! I highly recommend the Vanilla Toffee cookie recipe on my blog! #stpatricksday☘️ #bakingcookies
My (very fabulous) grandma was complaining that her brownies would always stick to the side of the pan…so last week I showed her this trick and she was blown away by the result! I have been doing it for over 10 years and I will never bake brownies any other way. Let me know in the comments if you have ever done this before! #browniehack #brownielovers #browniebatter
I decided to teach my roommate how to bake with some of our @sweetsindeed products. It turns out I did not give him enough instruction on finger licking etiquette - but other than that, he did a pretty great job! And if he can do it - anyone can! #ricekrispytreats #ricekrispy #easybaking
I take a lot of cut shots for our sprinkle company @sweetsindeed …but I had to learn this the hard way (as evidence by this painful video). I hope this tip helps someone else avoid this awkward shot! #foodphotos #productphotography
The only thing better than a rice crispy treat…?

Let me know what you think! #vdaygifts #valentinesdaygiftideas #ricecrispytreats

A lucky cat🐱donut! I’m obsessed with how the gold coins turned out with our @sweetsindeed edible glitter! #Luckycat #doughnuts #donuts🍩
Single? Try some boyfriend chocolate chip cookies. I have firsthand experience that these cookies are so good they can get you a boyfriend. Don’t want a boyfriend? That’s cool too. Just make them for yourself! #chocolatechipcookies #chocolatechipcookie
Chocolate Chip Cookies 🍪 I ate in NYC this year…from least favorite to favorite. Let me know in the comments if I missed any of your favorites!
Also, I know chocolate chip cookie preferences are very subjective. I am a soft and chewy kind of girl. So with that in mind, here are the results…
7. @chipcitycookies - good thick chewy texture. But very lackluster overall.
6. @sevengramscaffe - great texture and fantastic other cookies - but I thought the chocolate chip needed a little something more.
5. @_mamannyc_ great flavor with the soft center and crispy edges.
4. @lamercerieny great flavor with a nice addition of sea salt and caramel in the center.(Does it count as a chocolate chip cookie if you add caramel? In my mind…no. It makes it a completely different cookie. But everyone puts it on their nyc cchip cookie list - so it’s here.)
3. @radiobakerynyc - this is probably so high just because this is my favorite bakery in the city. So the experience as a whole is VERY high. But this is just a very solid chewy chocolate chip cookie.
2. @levainbakery this was a difficult choice because if you get it warm from the store and eat it right away…it’s pretty basically impossible to beat. But since we did our taste test all at room temp, this one got put in second place.
1. @dominiqueanselworkshop this was a complete shock for me…but it got number one from 3/4 of our taste testers (including me). It has great flavor and the texture is so soft and chewy and just really delightful overall.
Shoutout to a non-chocolate chip cookie. The black and whites from @essabagel were fantastic!
