These are my first huge discovery of the Christmas cookie baking season. Every year I make an effort to try some new recipes, create some new traditions. Some of the really successful cookies of past Christmases (that are not family recipes) include Gale Gand’s Hungarian Shortbread, Carole Walter’s Scottish Shortbread, and a recipe found on…
Sweet & Salty Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Happy Thanksgiving (a bit belated)! I know, it is 2 days after Thanksgiving and all I’ve got is cookies. But here is the deal. A. I don’t actually care for traditional Thanksgiving food, and since everyone else wants it I rarely cook it. B. My life is totally chaotic right now so I was super…
Can You Have Too Many Variations On Desserts That You Love?: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
It is probably obvious by now this blog will never be a repository for the “best” recipes for any particular dish. I am sure it would be nice if I sat and tested my way through endless variations and then presented you with my findings, but honestly I think I might go crazy. With apologies…

Catching up from Computer Woes: Blueberry Crisp & Peanut Butter Cookies
When I promised pictures of Cheesecake Pops and commentaries on blueberry crisp, I should have remembered my husband was going out of town. Yikes. Things were further complicated by the fact that for some reason fixing our external hard drive wiped out an entire week’s worth of Microsoft Word (saved on the internal hard drive)…
Ellie Krieger’s Triple Chocolate Cookies
I just got back in town from being gone for a few days, but I made this recipe right before I left. Things were hectic and I never took any pictures, but I still decided it was better to get some recipe from me than not at all (and that is why you see Finnegan…
Bill Yosses’ Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
I think I have returned to the land of the living. Of course I am so behind on absolutely everything, that it still may be a few days before you see regular posts here from me. But I did promise you a spectacular chocolate chip cookie recipe. We were just discussing the other day how…
