Day 4 – Walnut Chocolate Drop Cookies
I’m going to hand over the content for this cookie over to Zach. Because this is his family’s recipe and I have no idea what the history and tradition is behind it! Better for it to come from him, so here he is!! These chocolate drop cookies have been a long-standing tradition in my family, […]
Day 3 – Hazelnut Snowball Cookies
It’s been, what I would call, a lifetime of tradition in my immediate family for baking cookies around Christmas time. As far back as I can remember, my mom has been the eyes and ears of this operation: always making sure she made our personal favorites and always making sure there were more than enough […]
Day 2 – Seven Layer Bars
Well here we are! Day 2 of 20 Days of Christmas Cookies! 7 Layer Bars are another extremely easy recipe to make for the holidays. It may even be easier than peanut butter blossoms. They are a quick and delicious dessert. There’s not even any mixer action involved! Everything is just layered into a “lasagna-styled” […]
Day 1 – Peanut Butter Blossoms Three Ways!
So it begins: Day 1 of our 20 Days of Christmas Cookies! We know we have frolicked away from pairing our dishes with delicious brews, but don’t worry there will be some beer reviews on the way in the next week. We just don’t find pairing cookies with beer very successful. It will be well […]
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Believe it or not, this recipe was a tougher job than we had thought. Not because the muffins were difficult to make, but because it took us forever to find the recipe! This is actually Zach’s recipe: one that he’s had for over 10 years. The problem with Zach, is that he tends to misplace […]
Lemon Butter Bars
There are few things in this world that Zach does not like, but there is one thing that he absolutely can not stand and that is lemon. Unfortunately for me, I love lemon. Let’s just say we don’t have many “lemony” dishes in this household. I’ve been craving lemon lately though, so I decided to […]
Pumpkin, Nutella Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Well it is now the middle of October, and what more can we blog about, but more pumpkin. You really need to take advantage of all this pumpkin! I mean, you can buy pie pumpkins at your local supermarket for a really great price. You could always do what I plan on doing and just […]
Pumpkin Pinwheel Cookie Sandwiches
Halloween is just around the corner (although if you have been to your local big box store in the last week you might be convinced that christmas is next week!?). The temperatures are steadily falling and it wont be long before the leaves are changing to golden brown, yellow, orange, and red. This also means […]
Triple Surprise Chocolate Chip Cookies – Peanut Butter + Nutella + York Peppermint Patties
This is a recipe that I came up with a long while back that actually started as just a “Surprise” cookie. It has since been transformed and modified into many different forms and here today, we bring to you the “Triple Surprise” version of this colossal chocolate chip cookie. The story behind this cookie stems […]
