Best Damn Sugar Cookies. (Period)
I’ve posted a couple of sugar cookie posts on this site, but I am asking you to disregard all of them and bookmark this one. (Ok, except maybe for the decorative ones, because they’re different.) I needed to make some cookies this past weekend for the crew on a commercial shoot, same as I did […]
Chocolate Chip Cookies – With Bacon!
Ashleigh and I were at it again in her kitchen last week. What does that mean, exactly? It means she was busy baking and I was frolicking around her kitchen taking pictures of all her hard work. (I helped some too!) She and her husband were hosting a movie marathon at her place and so […]
Rainbow Cookies
If you grew up with me, you would know that Rainbow Cookies are a must-have at any family event. (except Passover…) I believe they’re technically Italian cookies, marzipan layers with raspberry jam filling, topped with chocolate, and colored red, white, and green, but they’re a staple in any good kosher bakery as well. I found […]
Buttery Jam Cookies
Some of you who know me personally know that I’ve been doing a yoga challenge at my local yoga studio. (30 days in a row, today is day 29! Urban Lily Yoga – if you’ve been looking for one.) Anyways, I’m not going to preach about yoga, but one of the nice things I’ve discovered while […]
Chocolate Surprise Cookies
I know that I recently posted my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, which happens to be a slightly adapted version of the Toll House recipe, so it might surprise you to know I used a different recipe for these surprise cookies. I was intrigued by the use of melted butter, but also just wanted to […]
Chocolate and Toffee Chip Cookies
I realized recently, after making my umptieth batch of chocolate chip cookies, that I’ve never actually posted a recipe for them on my site. The truth is, my favorite recipe is the one you find on the Toll House bag of chips. As with everything else, I usually just cut the sugar in the original […]
Action-Packed Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies
Yes, that title is setting a pretty high standard for a cookie – but these are Pumpkin Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies! They’re jam-packed with all the fall flavoring and action you can possibly handle. And yes, you would be correct in assuming that these cookies are as yummy as they sound! The back story […]
Cake Mix Sugar Cookies
I was so tempted to post my Pumpkin Muffin recipe, but I realized that I have been inundating you guys with pumpkin stuff and should probably take a break so as not to lose the interest of those who aren’t “into pumpkin.” (For the rest of you that are, there’s more to come! squeal!) These […]
Alfajores – South American Sandwich Cookies
Oh yeah, they’re as exotic as they sound. My sister sent me this recipe from Recipe Girl. She (my sis) is in Paraguay at the moment, you can read about her travels at Anywhere Home, and these are pretty common cookies down there from what I gather. Maybe similar to chocolate chip up here in […]
French Toast Cookies
I’ve had this recipe logged away for a bit, and I decided the perfect occasion to make them was as a thank you gift for someone who helped me out recently. The thank you I got from her for these cookies may have actually been bigger than the thank you message I thought I was […]
