I can’t believe I had completely forgotten about the deliciousness that is a Lemon Sugar Cookie. When I saw Maria of Two Peas and Their Pod post a recipe, I knew it was next on my to-bake list. As soon as the first batch came out of the oven, these cookies brought back so many […]
{favorite} Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
I have tried numerous recipes for Oatmeal Raisin Cookies but none of them really got me excited. Granted, I’m not a big fan of raisins in my cookies to begin with, but I just knew I could come up with the perfect recipe eventually. I’m so glad I didn’t give up hope. This combination of […]
Toasted Coconut Double Chocolate Cookies with Sea Salt
The recipe title is a mouth full and for good reason. I just couldn’t leave any of those descriptive words out. These cookies are everything I was hoping for and so much more. With the rich chocolately base, the nutty crunchy of the toasted coconut and the savory flavor of the sea salt, this is […]
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Oatmeal cookies? love! Chocolate chips? make everything amazing! Combining two of my favorite things, I whipped up a batch of these cookies on Sunday afternoon right before my home was overrun with teenagers (for youth group of course.) The whole plate of cookies was devoured with comments of “Best cookie ever!” and “I could eat […]
Almond Biscotti
Just like Pizzelles, Biscotti are a uniquely Italian cookie. Literally meaning “twice baked” these cookies are hard and dry and meant to keep for a long time. The variations on the recipe are almost endless. I’ve made cinnamon sugar biscotti and look forward to trying a chocolate variety as well as anise. Most traditionally enjoyed […]
S’mores Cookies
I have been a huge fan of S’mores ever since I can remember. My family went camping from the time I was 8 or 9 years old, and roasting those marshmallows to huge, puffy, golden brown orbs of gooeyness was my favorite part of the experience. We always squished TWO marshmallows in between our graham […]
Pecan Sandies
Pecan Sandies always remind me of my dad. I remember having a package of the Keebler variety in the cabinet, and as a young girl I couldn’t figure out why anyone would choose a pecan cookie over a chocolate chip cookie. Now I know why. These shortbread-esque cookies are the purest form of dessert. Butter. […]
Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Find Adorkable Recipes on Facebook. I am forever willing to try new chocolate chip cookie recipes. It’s never bad to have a fresh cookie to indulge my sweet tooth, and I just might come across something wonderful! This adaptation (egg plus egg yolk) of my standard cookie recipe results in a perfectly chewy cookie, with […]
Snickerdoodles
originally posted June 9, 2009. I could hardly believe I hadn’t posted a snickerdoodle recipe yet. Craziness. This is one of my favorite cookies and making them has fond memories of my growing-up years, yet for some reason I don’t bake them very often. The cookies have a delightful crisp surface, with a soft center, […]
Italian Pizzelles
Fact. I am one fourth (1/4) Italian. Fact. You would never know it aside from the foods I make and eat and the way I do so. Fact. My dad’s family is very Italian. Fact. I grew up in a town where at least half of the population is Italian. Fact. I never knew the quirks […]
