• Triple Chocolate Cookies

    IT IS FINALLY FALL!  I love all the fall colors, the pumpkins, the leaves, the scarecrows…all of it.   I even love some of the scary parts of Fall, like googly eyes and a goblin or two…but nothing too scary.   To welcome in everything fall and celebrate a little of the scary I give you Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies.   For the record… these cookies are good anytime of year, I just really love how awesome they are with the fall colored M&M’s and the eye ball candy.  All the chocolate I love, love, love chocolate.  Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, bittersweet…I love it all.  For…

  • Pumpkin Butter Cookies (KETO/Low Carb Friendly)

    Happy Fall!!  I cannot believe it is almost October!  To celebrate I made KETO friendly Pumpkin Butter Cookies and they are AMAZING! The perfect Fall cookie One of my biggest fears going on KETO was missing out on the sweets.  To be honest I do not have a big sweet tooth but I do like a little something sweet here and there.  A couple of friends suggested I make “fat bombs” immediately and I did and I love them (I will post a recipe for those soon) but the last few days I have been craving a cookie or cake…specifically pumpkin cookies or cake.  Thankfully I adjusted a favorite recipe…

  • Pumpkin Sugar Cookies

    September is in full swing and that means it is Pumpkin Spice Season…right?  To celebrate everything pumpkin, I had to make these Pumpkin Sugar Cookies.  They are my new favorite sugar cookie!! Not too much Pumpkin Ok I know that sometimes pumpkin spice can over power everything and become too much, but not in these cookies.  There is just enough hint of spice, without being in your face pumpkin pie spice.   If you wanted more spice you could add in an additional 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to make them more like a pumpkin snickerdoodle. Grab a glass This cookie batter does not spread so it is important to press…

  • Gooey Butter Cookies

    It is the First Day of School here in my part of the world.   To celebrate this big day I made cookies…Gooey Butter Cookies! SO EASY I love, love , love these cookies because you only need 6 ingredients and they are ready to gobble up in less than 45 minutes.  Yep…6 ingredients and 45 minutes and you have a treat for the kiddos (young and not so young).   For this batch I used a Butter Yellow Cake Mix but you can use any cake mix you want.  You could devils food, strawberry, or funfetti…so many options. Roll them up These cookies are not overly sweet, which I…

  • Vanilla Shortbread Sugar Cookies

    BEWARE!!  There is a new favorite cookie in town… The Vanilla Shortbread Sugar Cookie.  Not only is it delicious… it is SUPER easy!! It is all about the Vanilla Bean… Shortbread is a favorite but to really take it to the next level I used [Vanilla Bean Paste|https://amzn.to/2uTD77V ].  I use Vanilla Bean Paste in almost all my baking recipes but it is especially impactful in these cookies.  Not only do you see the Vanilla Bean Seeds (which makes them look super special) but it also amps up the vanilla taste making them AMAZING! Now if you do not have [Vanilla Bean Paste|https://amzn.to/2uTD77V ] you can use a vanilla pod with vanilla…

  • Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

    Sugar cookies are one of my most favorite sweet treats.  I love the thinner, crispier ones and the soft pillowy (lofthouse) style ones and I love the frosted version.  Sugar cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion…these are a must make. Get Creative  I beauty of these cookies is you can use whatever sprinkles you want or change the color of the icing to anything you want.  You really can be as creative you want.   For this go around I decided to use up all the left over sprinkles I had laying around.  I have to be honest I loved the variety…a little something for everyone. Ohhhh the…

  • One Bowl Chocolate Chip Cookies

    I am not sure there is anything much better than warm chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven.  I mean, there are a few things, but not much.  To make them even better how about making them all in one bowl and not chilling time….yep it is now better for sure. Scoop-i-dy Scoop Scoop One of my favorite tricks to make all my cookies the same size, so they all cook the same way is to use a cookie scoop.  I understand not everyone my have a handy cookie scoop laying around but don’t worry.  You can use a melon baller, a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon…

  • Lemon Tart Cookies

    With the weather warming up I am ALL about lemon anything.  I love lemon in my drinks, lemon in my food and lemon in my dessert…lemon anything!! They are just so cute! There is just something about cute little desserts.  It is even better when they are little lemon desserts.   I have always been a fan of making desserts or muffins in my mini muffin pans, but these are definately one of my favorites so far.   The cookie crust adds a bit of sweetness to the tartness of the lemon making each bite just perfect! They are just so pretty! Not only are they cute, but they are…

  • Monster Cookies

    Spring is finally here…well at least according to the calendar.  I don’t know about you but I am ready for some warmer weather and the sun to come out for more than 1 day at a time.   To celebrate Spring I decided to make some super fun cookies with the adorable Spring M&M’s.   Just the colors of the M&M’s make me happy. So much yummy Monster cookies have always been  favorite of mine.  I love the combo of oats, peanut butter and chocolate all together.  Not only is the texture amazing, but there is just so much yummy in each bite.   Some of the monster cookies I…

  • The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookie

    I am so in the mood for chocolate chip cookies…I mean like a whole big plate of them with ice cold milk.  Even more I want these cookies…RIGHT NOW! My version of the NYT recipe If you have searched for a chocolate chip cookie recipe on Pinterest lately I am sure you seen the New York Times recipe.  It is the recipe made with cake flour and bread flour and then you have to chill it for 24 hours.  Well, I don’t know about you but chilling cookie dough for 24 hours is not something I am very good at. I have done it before and the cookies were really…
