#91: Lucky Lunch
Since last year, I’ve been wanting to make a dish from Stardew Valley for this month, but there wasn’t any official cookbook for it and a lot of the recipes in the game are just normal dishes in real life. But there are a couple of dishes unique to the game and the one that…

#90: Goopy Carbonara
I’ve been excited to return to this month since I’ve found a lot of different recipe books and recipes online from my favorite video game series that I’ve been wanting to try out for a while now. So, for this first week, I thought I would do a classic recipe from The Sims 3. When…

#69: Naughty and Nice Chocolate Bonbons
Bonbons are one of my favorite things to get during Christmas time. When I was younger, we used to get these assorted chocolate boxes from a Southern Californian chocolate store called See’s as gifts for Christmas. I think they’re more well-known now, but as a child, I always thought they were such a luxury. The…

#20: Chocolate Chip Cookies
This chocolate chip cookie recipe is one of my favorites to make because it’s so simple and they always come out super delicious. If you have any leftovers, place the cookies into a plastic bag and store it in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or up to two months in the freezer. Though,…

Apparently, these cookies are also known as Russian Tea Cakes or Mexican Wedding Cookies.

If you have any leftovers, place the snowballs into a plastic bag and…

#17: Santa Munch Christmas Popcorn
One thing that I like about this recipe is how quick and easy it is. It’s super simple but super delicious. I also like how modular it is. You can easily substitute ingredients and almost any snack you put in will taste good. For example, if you don’t really like popcorn, no worries, just use…

#12: The Custard Out of Space
So to finish off this month of making spooky recipes, I thought that a sweet dessert would be a perfect dish to end on. There were a lot of options to pick from in the Necronomnomnom, but this one seemed like the simplest one to do. Specifically in terms of the dish’s origins, the monster…

#11: Vegemitey Cthulhu
So with this recipe, I chose to do this one because of its monstrous origins. Cthulhu, of course, is a Great Old One described by Lovecraft as “A monster of vaguely anthropoid outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hind and fore…

#10: The Grape Old Wons
So with this recipe, I was initially intrigued by it because of its interesting shape and use of ingredients. I was a bit confused about why they used grapes in the recipe and wanted to see what it tasted like. But I thought that the sweetness of the grapes would taste weird with the rest…
