The Best of May: 10 Recipes You Couldn’t Stop Making

What you cooked, baked, and shared the most this month

Hi foodie,

What a month! Between hopping over to NYC ✈️, attending a huge YouTube event (more on that soon!), testing a bunch of new recipes, and updating old ones — May has been busy. But in the best way.

And honestly, it wouldn’t be a proper monthly recap without talking about the biggest food trend in my kitchen right now...

If it feels like I’ve been talking about cottage cheese non-stop lately… it’s because I have. And guess what? You’re still loving it just as much! Whether it’s cheesecake, mousse, or fudge — it seems like we’re all living in a cottage cheese era, and I’m not mad about it 😄

But before we dive into the Top 10 most popular recipes of May, let’s take a quick look at everything new I shared this month — just in case you missed a post or two. You can always catch up here:

Now, let’s now to the recipes you loved the most this month:
