It’s hard to beat a warm chocolate chip cookie with a glass of cold milk, though a brownie might match it. I’ve also got the best Christmas holiday cookies as certified by my family and friends!
These delicious treats are similar to whoopie pies. The chocolate cake like batter resembles the shape of a small hamburger bun. The filling is light and fluffy and has just a hint of sweetness. When I was still working, it was a tradition for me to bake these for my co-workers on Ground Hogs Day. […]
This delicate, tender cookie with a hint of vanilla, is bursting with bits of pecans and is rolled in powdered sugar . One batch makes approximately 45 cookies.
Here’s another cookie from my “Christmas Cookie Collection”. It’s a tasty peanut butter cookie, rolled in sugar and topped with a big old Hershey’s Kiss. Which reminds me, one bag of kisses is plenty for this recipe as it yields approximately 50 cookies.
This buttery, chewy, nutty and downright delicious bar cookie is one of the best bar cookies I have ever eaten. With just the right amount of chocolate and caramel, it’s sure to please even the fussiest of cookie critics!
This is probably one of the first recipes I put in my recipe collection, probably around 56 years ago. I had found it while looking through my mother’s loose recipes and I copied it to put in my “hope chest”. I usually make these at Christmas time, when I do major cookie bakes. This is […]
I love, love, love brownies. I guess you can tell that, as this is one of 3 different brownie recipes on my site. I just can’t pick a favorite! This recipe was very recently discovered on the inside of a Baker’s chocolate box. Of course, I just HAD to try it. I must admit, they […]
These lemon cookies simply melt in your mouth. They have a tender, cake like texture. The lemon icing, laced with fresh lemon zest , puts this cookie “over the top”.
This is the recipe that turned me into a lemon bar lover. I had a “girls only” get together and my old friend Bonnie brought these bars. Talk about heavenly…a perfectly balanced combo of tart, yet sweet lemony goodness. The crust is absolutely amazing.
Oh the memories I have of my mother making these cookies. There were 10 kids in the family, so when she would make these, as they were coming out of the oven, she would have to ration them to one cookie for each child. Then she’d pack them away until Christmas Eve when the relatives […]
It’s been over 40 years since a sweet little Italian lady, Rosa Marie, shared this recipe with me. She used to bake these for all of her families weddings’ As you can see from the massive amount of flour, it makes hundreds of cookies, so I usually cut the recipe in 1/4th. When I make […]
