If you love Oreos, this Oreo Cheesecake is one to add straight to your list. It’s rich, chocolatey, and layered with a fudgy brownie base, a thick no-bake Oreo cheesecake filling, and a whipped Oreo topping that makes it feel like a proper dessert centerpiece.

If you’ve already tried my Oreo Cheesecake Brownies or Oreo Truffles, this is the next one to make. It has that same cookies-and-cream flavor but in a full cheesecake that’s perfect for slicing and serving. It also sits right alongside No-bake desserts like my Peanut Butter Pie and Coconut Cream Bars when you want something you can make ahead and bring out later.

What Makes This Oreo Cheesecake Recipe So Good?

This Oreo Cheesecake hits that balance between rich and light in the best way. You’ve got a baked brownie layer on the bottom, then a fluffy no-bake cheesecake filling, and finally that whipped Oreo topping. You can make it the day before and just decorate before serving, which is ideal for holidays, birthdays, or even summer get-togethers.

Storage and Freezing

If you’re looking for an easy dinner that feels a little different from the usual taco night, these Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Tacos are such a good one to try. You get tender, saucy shredded beef with that smoky BBQ flavor, piled into warm tortillas and topped with crunchy slaw and fresh herbs. This is a great option for summer get-togethers, game day or some easy tacos to serve for Cinco de Mayo.

These tacos start with my Slow Cooker BBQ Beef, which is one of those recipes I make on repeat because it can be used in so many ways. Once that’s ready, turning it into tacos is the easiest next step.

I like to layer the beef with my Homemade Creamy Coleslaw for a bit of crunch and extra Homemade BBQ Sauce, then add fresh toppings like cilantro and jalapeños. If you want to build it out even more, adding sides like Guacamole, Fresh Tomato Salsa, or Chipotle Corn Salsa makes it feel like a full spread without much extra work.

Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Tacos with Coleslaw – My Go-To Way to Use Leftovers

This is usually what I make the day after I’ve done a batch of BBQ beef. I’ll have it the first night as sandwiches, then the next day it turns into tacos.

It reminds me of my dad cooking dinner when I was growing up. He’d cook something once and then find a few different ways to use it over the next couple of days. Like how he would turn potatoes and cabbage into Colcanon, then fry it up for breakfast the next day! Nothing complicated, just making the most of what you already have in the fridge.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Tacos?
  
  Store the shredded BBQ beef in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Keep it in the sauce so it stays moist.

• Can I freeze Slow Cooker BBQ Beef Tacos?
  
  Yes, it freezes really well. Let it cool completely, then store it in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Once defrosted, reheat in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave, adding a splash of broth or BBQ sauce if needed to loosen it up.

Biscoff Cheesecake Cups are one of my favorite no-bake desserts to make when I need something quick, easy, and totally delicious. Each little cup has a buttery cookie crust, a creamy cheesecake filling, and a spoonful of melted cookie butter on top. If you love Biscoff, you have to try my Biscoff Cheesecake and Biscoff Truffles.

This is one of those recipes that works for just about any occasion. Since there’s no baking involved, you don’t need to worry about turning on the oven or fussing with a water bath. Just layer the crust, whip up the filling, and chill until you’re ready to serve. These mini Biscoff cheesecakes are a great option when you need a dessert that’s low-effort but still has that wow factor.

A Quick and Easy No Bake Dessert

I made these for the first time when we were having friends over and I needed something quick that still looked nice on the table. I used small bowls, but jars would be perfect if you’re taking them to a potluck or party. The Biscoff was a last-minute idea, and now it’s the best part. It melts into this smooth, spoonable topping that firms up just enough in the fridge. Now I make them any time I want a no-fuss dessert that still feels a little extra.

Variations

• Biscoff and banana cheesecake cups: Add a layer of sliced banana between the crust and the cheesecake filling. It adds a fresh, fruity twist that works surprisingly well with the cookie butter.
• Chocolate swirl Biscoff cheesecake: Drizzle a little melted chocolate over the cheesecake layer before adding the Biscoff topping. It sets up nicely and adds that rich chocolate bite.
• Nutty cookie butter cups: Stir a spoonful of peanut butter into the filling for a subtle nutty flavor. It balances the sweetness and gives it a slightly different vibe.
• Mini cheesecake jars to go: If you’re bringing dessert to a friend’s house or packing for a picnic, use small mason jars with lids. They’re easy to stack in the fridge and travel really well.
• Biscoff swirl topping: Swirl a little melted cookie butter directly into the cheesecake layer instead of spooning it on top. It gives each bite a mix of flavors and looks great too..

Serving Suggestions

• Serve chilled straight from the fridge for the best texture. They’ll be set but still creamy and soft.
• Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on top to warm up the flavor. It ties in perfectly with the spiced Biscoff cookies.
• Pair with an Iced Latte or espresso. Try my Tres Leches Iced Latte recipe. The flavors work really well together, especially if you’re serving these for a brunch.
• Set them out on a dessert tray or platter with extra Biscoff cookies and spoons. It makes them easy to grab and looks really nice for guests.
• Create a simple topping bar if you’re serving a group. Set out bowls of whipped cream, crushed cookies, melted chocolate, or even berries so everyone can add what they like.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Biscoff Cheesecake Cups?
  
  These cheesecake cups keep really well in the fridge for up to 5 days. Just cover each one tightly with plastic wrap or use jars with lids if you’re storing multiples

• Can I freeze Biscoff Cheesecake Cups?
  
  To freeze, wrap each one in plastic wrap or place them in a container with a tight-fitting lid. They’ll keep for about 2 months. Let them thaw overnight in the fridge, then add the toppings like whipped cream and crushed cookies just before serving so they stay fresh.

Smoky, juicy, and just the right amount of spicy, this Chipotle Chicken is your new go-to for quick weeknight dinners, burrito bowls, tacos, and everything in between. Made with boneless chicken thighs, olive oil, and bold spices like chipotle powder, cumin, and smoked paprika, it’s full of flavor and so easy to throw together.

This chipotle chicken checks all the boxes, flavorful, quick, and easy to repurpose for just about any meal. You can slice it up for tacos, layer it into burrito bowls with black beans and rice or pile it into a bowl with chipotle corn salsa, guacamole, and some crunchy lettuce. It’s also perfect with a side of Mexican street corn or wrapped up in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings. However you serve it, this chicken brings the flavor and makes dinner feel like anything but boring.

A Simple Recipe That Works for Everything

This one came about after my son got totally hooked on Chipotle chicken bowls. I wanted a version that had the same flavor punch but didn’t cost a fortune every time we craved it. Something that worked for easy summer dinners but also made a solid lunch the next day. Now I meal prep a batch at the start of the week and use it for Chipotle Chicken Burrito Bowls, wraps, or quick salads with whatever’s in the fridge. It’s fast, flavorful, and saves us a ton of money too.

Variations

• Use chicken breasts: Swap in chicken breasts if that’s what you have. Slice them thinner or into cutlets so they cook fast and stay juicy.
• Make it mild: Tone down the spice by using chili powder instead of chipotle. You’ll still get that smoky flavor without the heat.
• Turn it into a marinade: Add lime juice and a spoon of Greek yogurt to the mix and let the chicken sit for 20–30 minutes. It gives extra flavor and helps tenderize.
• Grill it outside: This seasoning mix is made for the grill. Just oil the grates and cook over medium-high heat for extra smoky flavor.
• Sheet pan version: Spread everything on a sheet pan and roast it. Add sliced peppers or onions if you want an easy one-pan dinner.

Serving Suggestions

• Build-your-own burrito bowls: Slice the chipotle chicken and serve it over rice with black beans and rice, shredded lettuce, chipotle corn salsa, guacamole, and a little sour cream or shredded cheese. Add some tortilla chips on the side for crunch. This setup works great for meal prep or feeding a group where everyone can build their own bowl.
• Stuffed into tacos: Warm up some corn or flour tortillas and fill them with sliced chicken, shredded cabbage or lettuce, and a drizzle of crema or chipotle mayo. Top with Mexican street corn or a scoop of Fresh Tomato Salsa for extra flavor. It’s a great way to turn leftovers into a totally different meal.
• Tucked into wraps or quesadillas: Wrap it up with melty cheese, beans, and whatever veggies you like for a quick handheld lunch. Or chop the chicken and layer it into a quesadilla with cheese and diced red onion for something crispy and satisfying.
• Over salad for a lighter option: You can try serving it alongside my Grilled Peach Salad for a fresh and flavorful summer dinner—the sweetness of the peaches balances the smoky heat from the chicken so well.
• Topped on loaded fries or nachos:Use this chicken in place of the ground beef in my Beef Nachos recipe for a smoky, spicy twist. It still loads up beautifully with melty cheese, jalapeños, salsa, and sour cream, and it’s a great way to switch things up if you’re making nachos for a crowd. You can also mix both proteins if you’re feeding a group with different preferences.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Chipotle Chicken?
  
  Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Let it cool completely before storing to avoid moisture buildup. You can reheat it in a skillet over medium heat to keep the texture nice, or use it cold for wraps, bowls, or salads.

• Can I freeze Chipotle Chicken?
  
  Freeze cooked chicken in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. Slice or chop it first so it’s easy to thaw just what you need. Let it cool completely before freezing and press out as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. To reheat, thaw in the fridge overnight and warm gently in a skillet with a splash of water or broth to keep it from drying out.

This Chipotle Corn Salsa Recipe is one of my go-to sides when I’m craving that smoky-sweet flavor you get with a burrito bowl from Chipotle. It’s a copycat recipe that’s way easier than you might think, and my favorite part is it uses canned corn, so you can whip it up fast, no matter the season.

If you’re building your own Chipotle Burrito Bowls at home, this is the salsa you want to have ready to go. It’s a great way to bring big flavor with very little effort. I use it all the time in my Chipotle Chicken Burrito Bowls (especially alongside Fresh Tomato Salsa, Guacamole, and marinated chicken), but it’s also just a really solid side for tacos, quesadillas, or tortilla chips. This copycat Chipotle corn salsa comes together in minutes and tastes just like what you’d get at the restaurant, maybe even better because you can make it exactly how you like it.

A Quick, Roasted Corn Salsa Inspired by Chipotle

At Chipotle, their corn salsa is made with sweet white corn, but this recipe works beautifully with canned yellow or white corn. The key is giving it a quick roast in a dry pan to bring out that caramelized flavor. Toss it with fresh lime juice, roasted poblano, and the rest of your simple salsa ingredients, and it tastes just like the one you get at the restaurant.

If you’ve ever ordered a burrito bowl and thought, “I wish I could make that corn salsa at home,” this is the copycat Chipotle corn salsa recipe you’ve been waiting for.

Variations

• Add black beans: Stir in ½ cup of black beans for extra texture and protein. Great for bulking it up for burrito bowls.
• Make it spicier: Add another jalapeño, leave the seeds in, or toss in a pinch of cayenne pepper.
• Use lemon juice: No limes on hand? Lemon juice works, but use a little less.
• Try grilled corn: If you happen to have leftover corn on the cob, slice off the kernels and use them instead for an even smokier flavor.
• Add avocado: For a fun twist, stir in some diced avocado just before serving. It adds creaminess and goes really well with the other flavors.

Serving Suggestions

• Burrito bowls – This is my go-to topping for my homemade Chipotle Chicken Burrito Bowls with grilled chicken or steak.
• Tacos – Spoon this copycat Chipotle corn salsa onto soft tacos for extra texture and zing.
• Quesadillas – Serve it on the side or tuck it inside the cheese before cooking for an extra layer of flavor.
• Nachos – Sprinkle it over warm, Cheesy Beef Nachos for a fresh, tangy contrast.
• Grilled meats – Pairs really well with grilled Chicken, Pork, or Shrimp as a fresh topping.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store this Chipotle Corn Salsa Recipe?
  
  Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. It gets even better after sitting for a few hours.

• Can I freeze this Chipotle Corn Salsa Recipe?
  
  It is not recommended. Fresh herbs and peppers don’t hold up well after thawing, and the texture will turn watery.

These coconut cream bars are cool, creamy, and packed with tropical flavor. Made with simple pantry ingredients and no oven required, they’re the perfect make-ahead dessert for warm days, parties, or just when you’re craving something sweet and easy.

This is one of those desserts that feels refreshing but still has that homemade comfort food feel. The buttery graham cracker crust holds up great without baking, and the coconut pudding layer sets firm enough to slice, thanks to instant pudding and a reduced milk ratio. It’s a great option for cookouts, potlucks, or holidays when oven space is limited. Just like my Peanut Butter Pie and Texas Sheet Cake!

A Little Coconut Goes a Long Way:

Coconut has always been one of those flavors I never get tired of. I like it toasted, in creamy desserts, or even just sprinkled over yogurt. These bars came together on a day I had a craving for something cool and coconutty, and they’ve been on repeat ever since. Especially in the summer when easy, make-ahead desserts are the real MVP. if you love coconut, be sure to try my Coconut Macaroons and Samoas Cookies.

Variations

• Chocolate coconut bars: Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the crust and use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla for a rich twist that pairs well with the coconut.
• Pineapple coconut bars: Mix ½ cup of well-drained crushed pineapple into the pudding layer before spreading it over the crust. It adds a tropical, juicy flavor that works perfectly with the coconut.
• Almond joy-style bars: Add a handful of mini chocolate chips and sliced almonds to the crust, then drizzle melted chocolate over the top before chilling.
• Whipped cream topping: Swap Cool Whip for homemade whipped cream if you prefer. Just whip 1 cup of heavy cream with a bit of powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

Serving Suggestions

• Keep them cold: These bars are best served straight from the fridge. The layers stay firm and creamy, and the flavor is extra refreshing when chilled.
• Top with extra coconut: Add a little more toasted coconut on each slice right before serving for a nice crunchy finish.
• Dress them up with fruit: Add a few fresh raspberries or sliced strawberries on top if you’re serving them for a party or holiday spread.
• Cut into smaller bites: For a potluck or dessert table, cut the bars into bite-sized squares so they’re easy to grab and serve.
• Pair with Iced coffee: The creamy coconut flavor goes really well with coffee. You could try my Tres Leches Iced latte.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Coconut Cream Bars?
  
  Keep the bars covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. Store them in the pan with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container. The crust stays firm and the layers hold up well.

• Can I freeze Coconut Cream Bars?
  
  You can freeze the bars if needed. Slice them first, then place on a baking sheet to freeze until solid. Transfer to a freezer-safe container with parchment between layers.

Taco Sloppy Joes are everything you love about a classic sloppy joe sandwich, with a bold, Tex-Mex twist. It’s saucy, cheesy, a little spicy, and perfect for busy nights when you need something hearty and fast. This homemade sloppy joe recipe comes together in one pan, and is packed with flavor from enchilada sauce, spices, and your favorite taco toppings.

If you love a good sloppy joe sandwich but want something a little more exciting, this recipe is the perfect mash-up. It’s a great way to use pantry staples and create a fun, easy dinner that’s a hit with the whole family. You can serve these on store-bought buns, but I highly recommend my brioche buns recipe if you want to take it up a notch. And for sides? My orzo pasta salad or a creamy coleslaw both work really well to round out the meal.

Let’s Taco About a Sloppy Joe Upgrade

I already have a soft spot for anything sloppy joe-related (hello Sloppy Joe Casserole ), so giving it a taco-inspired spin was bound to happen. This version has become a new go-to in our house. It’s got just the right amount of spice, the kind of saucy texture that soaks perfectly into the bun, and all the toppings I’d normally load onto a taco. Plus, it’s ready in 30 minutes so it’s a win win.

Variations

• Use ground turkey: Swap in ground turkey for a leaner take on this homemade sloppy joe recipe. It still picks up all the bold taco flavor and keeps the texture saucy and satisfying.
• Make it spicier: Turn up the heat by adding diced jalapeños, a splash of hot sauce, or a pinch of cayenne. This variation gives your taco sloppy joes a fun, fiery kick.
• Cheese it up: Stir in shredded cheddar or pepper jack right before serving to make the filling extra creamy and cheesy. Perfect for cheese lovers.
• Serve open-faced: Use one bun half and pile everything on top for a fork-and-knife sloppy joe sandwich. It’s a great way to show off the toppings and cut back on carbs.
• Make it kid-friendly: Skip the spicy peppers and use mild enchilada sauce. Kids will still love the flavor without the heat, and it’s a fun twist on the classic sloppy joe sandwich.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with orzo pasta salad: The fresh, herby flavors of orzo pasta salad balance out the rich taco beef for a bright, colorful plate.
• Add a side of coleslaw: My homemade coleslaw adds the perfect cool crunch to contrast the warm, saucy, sloppy joe filling.
• Use slider buns: Make mini sloppy joe sandwiches for parties, game day, or kid-friendly dinners. Just spoon the filling onto smaller buns and let guests add toppings.
• Pair with tortilla chips and dip: Chips with salsa, queso, or Homemade Guacamole make an easy side and tie into the taco-inspired theme of this homemade Sloppy Joe recipe.
• Top with crushed tortilla chips: Add a crunchy topping right before serving for texture (especially good if you’re serving these open-faced.)

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Taco Sloppy Joes?
  
  Store the leftover taco sloppy joe mixture in an airtight container for up to 4 days. It’s perfect for quick lunches or next-day dinner.
  

• Can I freeze Taco Sloppy Joes?
  
  Transfer cooled meat to a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge, then reheat in a pan or microwave until hot.

These strawberry pie crust cookies are everything you love about a flaky pastry and a sweet jam-filled treat, all wrapped up in one easy recipe. Made with store-bought pie crust, strawberry jam, and a dusting of powdered sugar, they’re perfect for summer parties, afternoon snacks, or just because you’re craving something sweet and simple.

These cookies are inspired by classic Linzer cookies but with a shortcut twist that keeps things easy. Instead of making dough from scratch, we’re using refrigerated pie crust, which bakes up golden, crisp, and flaky. They’re a great little treat to whip up for the 4th of July, a baby shower cookie tray, or a picnic dessert that doesn’t melt in the heat. You can swap the jam for any flavor you have on hand, so they’re super versatile too.

Strawberry Jam Cookies That Start with Pie Crust

I’ve been baking these on repeat because they check all the boxes—easy, quick, and cute enough to serve at brunch or bring to a summer party. All you need is a box of pie crust and a jar of strawberry jam. I used this scalloped cookie cutter that punches out the centers for you, so the tops look a bit fancy with basically no effort. And honestly, there’s something very satisfying about sandwiching them together once they’re baked and filled.

Variations

• Use a different jam or preserve: Raspberry, blackberry, apricot, or cherry jam all work beautifully here. Just pick one that’s thick enough to hold its shape and not too runny after baking.
• Add citrus zest to the crust: For a little pop of flavor, sprinkle some lemon or orange zest onto the pie crust before cutting the shapes. It gives the cookies a bright, fresh twist.
• Make them heart-shaped for Valentine’s Day: Swap out the cutter for a heart shape and use a mini heart cutter for the center. Perfect for February or a sweet homemade gift.
• Add a layer of Nutella under the jam: A thin swipe of chocolate hazelnut spread beneath the jam turns these into a chocolate-strawberry combo that’s hard to beat.
• Make mini versions for dessert boards: Use smaller cutters and make bite-sized cookies to tuck into grazing boards or cookie trays.

Serving Suggestions

• On a summer dessert platter: Pair these cookies with Strawberries and Cream, Cheesecake Bars, and iced tea for a backyard dessert board.
• With a scoop of vanilla ice cream: Serve one or two alongside a small bowl of vanilla ice cream for an easy plated dessert.
• Packed into lunch boxes: These hold up well at room temp, making them great for a little treat in a lunch bag or picnic basket.
• With coffee or tea: The flaky crust and sweet jam go perfectly with a cup of tea or a creamy coffee for an afternoon break.
• Wrapped up for gifting: Stack a few in a cellophane bag and tie with a ribbon—homemade cookies always make the best gifts.

Storage and Freezing

• How should I store Pie Crust Cookies?
  
  Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If your kitchen runs warm, you can refrigerate them, but allow them to come back to room temp before serving for best texture.

• Can I freeze Pie Crust Cookies?
  
  You can freeze the baked cookies (before assembling) for up to 2 months. Let them cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe bag or container. Defrost at room temp, then add jam and powdered sugar before serving. Assembled cookies with jam don’t freeze well, as the jam can make the crust soggy.
