I have always wanted to be able to say something was simply stupendous! I made Snickerdoodles from scratch for the first time this week. Is that weird? We just were not a Snickerdoodle family growing up. I don’t think I ever even tried one until I was in my twenties! And the few I tried…
M&M-Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bars
A while back I was craving an oatmeal cookie with chocolate chips–but I was also feeling very lazy so I wanted a bar cookie. I was surprised that I had trouble finding one without peanut butter–I love peanut butter cookies as anyone who reads this blog knows, but that was not the flavor I was…
The Spiced Life Kitchen/Cookie Carnival’s Lemon Ricotta Cookies
Did you know that the more I like something the less likely I am to use it? Oh it’s true, I am whacked. I will sit and treasure the anticipation, waiting for the perfect moment to use that something for the first time. Meanwhile it will sit and collect dust. Anyway, I have acquired a…
Hole Of Shame Hazelnut Carmelitas
I was in a used bookstore the other day when I happened across a small baking book devoted to coffeehouse treats. I had tried and true recipes for everything in it, except for carmelitas. Which I had never heard of and which sounded amazing. I could not really justify buying the book for just one…
Mint Chocolate Dalmatians
Why does peppermint seem out of place in the summer? Yes it is a holiday flavor, but it is so cooling and refreshing, the perfect complement to chocolate on a hot summer day. That’s my story anyway. I found this recipe, sans peppermint, in Marcel Desaulniers’ Death By Chocolate Cookies. I am not a big…
Strawberry Lemonade Bars
Can you take another strawberry recipe? This might be the best so far. I think these Strawberry lemonade Bars are probably making the blog rounds–and they deserve to be. I first heard about them on Twitter, I forget who, and got linked to Playing House, who linked me in turn to Baking Bites, whose original…
Chocolate Shortbread
I have been searching for some time now for a chocolate shortbread recipe that made me happy. I mean, chocolate, shortbread, 2 of my favorite things–should be a marriage made in heaven, right? But many of them were on the dry side to me. Good example: these Carole Walter bars, which were good but not…
A New Look For Sweet & Salty Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
What is it about kids that brings out the over the top in us? Indeed, might I say, garish in us? I would not normally put 1 cup of peanut butter chips, 1 cup of chocolate chips, 1 bag of baking M&Ms and 1 bag of baking peanut butter cups into a double batch of my Sweet &…
Streusal Topped Lemon Shortbread Bars
Do you ever go looking for a new version of something, mostly out of a desire to try a new recipe rather than any dissatisfaction with the classic, only to discover that the final result is indeed so different from what you were expecting that you are disappointed? Which is silly because first of all,…
