S’mores Cookies
The original concept for these s’mores cookies was something Chef Baby came up with called “vanilla explosion cookies”, which involved lots of vanilla extract plus vanilla chips. But then I told him vanilla chips do not exist (although white chocolate chips are kind of like vanilla chips, but white chocolate chips are terrible in my…
Read MoreSalty Cashew-Coconut Cookies
I wanted a cookie that reminded me of a PayDay bar because those are one of the best candy bars ever invented. And in fact you could probably use roasted salted peanuts here in this recipe just fine but I haven’t tried it because I’m a FANCY GIRL NOW and my peanuts are cashews. (Actually,…
Read MoreFresh Cranberry Cookies
I made this recipe up to use some leftover fresh cranberries after baking some cranberry nut bread. A total experiment, I was kind of expecting these to be . . . not very good?

Read MoreOatmeal Apple Toffee Cookies
This is a variation of one of the cookie recipes in my new Kindle book, Holiday Cookies. I couldn’t decide which I liked better so I just put one in the book and the other on here. Win-win! These oatmeal cookies are soft, chewy, and cake-like and they stay soft and moist for days in…
Read MoreMemorial Oatmeal Cookies
James’s memorial service is tonight. I’m making food for it today. He loved cookies; I think, because he himself was kind of like a cookie. Easily shared, day-brightening, and sweet – any or all of those descriptives could be ascribed to both cookies and James. Here is a cookie recipe I created for James. I…
