aka: chunky oatmeal chocolate chip cookies This recipe is fanTASTIC! My husband absolutely loved them (which is saying something because he loves all my cookies and gets to eat them quite frequently. But he really raved over these!) They’re the perfect everything–hearty, crisp, chewy, sweet, unexpected. The old fashioned oats add a great texture […]
Fruit Pizza
also known as “gigantic sugar cookie with cream cheese frosting and fruit ornamentation.” We were having one of our teen’s families over to dinner after church. It was going to be casual–burgers, salad, potato wedges (though I had to do homemade burger patties, and homemade buns, and homemade potato wedges). I asked our guest of honor for […]
No Bake Cookies
No Bake Cookies: Revisited. I can’t believe I don’t make these little gems more often. They are incredibly simple. so fast. so delicious. Assuming, of course, that you love chocolate and peanut butter. Which I do. I had to do some editing to this recipe from the original format. First, I doubled the ingredients–because who […]
Chewy Chocolate Gingerbread Cookies
Recently I borrowed a great cookie resource from my local library–Martha Stewart’s Cookies. I’m not in any way, shape or form a Martha fan, but I AM a fan of cookies and this cookbook is choc full of great recipes. Some of them are just ridiculously extravagant for my taste, but I was pleasantly surprised to discovery […]

Peanut Butter Chip Chocolate Cookies
These may very well be the most amazing cookie of all time. Or at least the winner of the “chocolate/chip” category. I’m still a die hard Molasses Spice fan, I must admit. But that’s a completely different genre of cookie. Kevin and I had had an argument. I wanted to bake. It was my way […]
