I really wanted to make a cookie this year with all of my favorite ingredients rolled into one. I also wanted to make a cookie that used almond flour. So what happens when these two ideas come together?! You get Hazelnut and Orange Snowflake Cookies. I know it may sound confusing, so let me break …
Let us be honest. Fudge can be tricky. If you are making what I like to call “real fudge,” you would never ever think to use marshmallow creme, but I am here to tell you that it’s NOT WORTH IT! Use the marshmallow creme! I beg you! If you don’t, trust me, you will get …
Caramel…Butter…Bars…What is not to love about that name for a recipe? I haven’t really taken a stab at caramel this year yet (for Christmas cookies that is). That’s because I have little to no luck with the stuff. I could go on and on about my experiences: about how the last time I tried to …
This is another one of those cookie recipes that I just had to try. I’ve had them before, but I’ve never actually made them. Since this year we have decided to make every cookie imaginable, these were of course at the top of our list! I didn’t realize that they would be so easy though! …
With this recipe, I have decided to take a page out of my own cookbook and use a recipe of my own! This recipe is derived from my Oatmeal Whoopie Pie recipe, but I’ve excluded the “whoopie” part. Don’t get me wrong, the oatmeal whoopie pies are fabulous, but they just don’t scream Christmas and …
These double chocolate white chocolate chunk macadamia nut cookies are the perfect sweet treat for any time of day! This is your classic chocolate chip cookie amped up about 5 million notches. We had to do your traditional chocolate chip cookie, but I wasn’t about to go with the standard recipe. Of course there had …
We all know Zach’s hatred for lemon, but for some odd reason he loves lemonades and limoncello. I try to solve this mystery everyday, but get no where. I’m under the impression that he just PRETENDS not to like it. I’m not sure why he would do this, but this is the furthest I’ve gotten …
Zach loves to make pinwheel cookies. Whenever I ask him what kind of cookie he wants, we always eventually end at some kind of pinwheel cookie. We’ve dealt with pinwheels before, and they aren’t the easiest recipe in the cookbook. It does take some practice to really get the rolling technique down for this type …
This is another recipe that was inspired by my mom. Although they are a tad different, the general idea remains the same. You can basically look at this recipe and call it a sugar cookie with an indentation in the middle. These cookies were again, a bit of a gamble, and although they are absolutely …
