I absolutely love this sugar cookie recipe, made it for the first time last Christmas and it’s a keeper. However I’ve been having trouble finding a frosting recipe that
1) contains no shortening or margarine or corn syrup, ingredients I hate using.
2) dries well enough that you can stack the cookies after they are frosted
and
3) tastes [...]

Sugar Cookies
Posted in Christmas, cookies on December 26, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Last year the sugar cookies I made turned out wonderfully, but when I used the recipe again at Halloween this year the cookies and the frosting didn’t turn out well at all, probably due to human error. I decided to try new recipes this year since there are so many out there and I’d been [...]
Chocolate Macaroons

Last year I made a batch of chocolate macaroons but didn’t use my mom’s recipe, just one I found online that I thought looked the same. They weren’t the same and I really didn’t like the melted chocolate. Cocoa is just way better in this recipe in my opinion! So this year I used my [...]
peanut butter chocolate chip cookies

I’ve had this recipe bookmarked for quite some time now and they did not disappoint! I forgot to squish the first batch with a fork so they came out dense and not so good, but I remembered from then on out and the rest were perfect!
The Best Peanut Butter Cookies (as seen on Baking Blonde’s [...]
The Welcome Wagon
Posted in cookies, desserts on July 26, 2008 | 3 Comments »
In the last 3 weeks we’ve had two new neighbors move into our apartment building. We were SO HAPPY that the old upstairs neighbor moved out since he frequently kept us up late at night with his drunken arguments and *ahem* other noisy activities. We were home and able to promptly [...]
Snickerdoodles

I’ve been in the mood to make cookies recently and even though I have several partial bags of chocolate chips and nuts begging to be plucked from their shelf in the pantry, I opted for a simpler recipe that I knew Tyler would go nutso over. I’ve never really seen the appeal in a cookie [...]
Butterscotch Bites
Posted in Cooking Light, Weight Watchers, cookies, desserts on March 5, 2008 | 6 Comments »
I saw this recipe on Cooking Light’s website the other day and decided to whip up a batch for my book club tonight. We read Eat, Pray, Love which got me craving some good Italian food and a yearlong trip around the world, but since I can’t really have either right now, these butterscotch [...]
Funfetti Cookies
Posted in cookies, desserts on January 20, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Funfetti cake is my favorite. It just screams HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Sadly I only get it about once a year, unless somebody close to me requests Funfetti for their own birthday. Even though my birthday is still 2 months away I was craving some colorful Funfetti goodness and remembered that the mix could easily be [...]
Not another chocolate chip cookie recipe!
Posted in cookies on January 15, 2008 | 2 Comments »
While I was browsing my google reader this morning I saw these cookies and starred the recipe so I could make them at a later time. Well that later time ended up coming tonight! And wow they are just as good as I imagined they would be, actually better! I had some pecans in the [...]
A Family Fave
Posted in Christmas, cookies, desserts on December 30, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Here is the most traditional Christmas cookie from my childhood: the chocolate macaroon. I experimented a bit with this recipe because I did not want to have to rig up a double boiler to melt the ingredients as the family recipe requires. I didn’t have the time or the patience. So I went to the [...]
