  • 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…

  • My new FAVORITE Brookie

    Ever since Brookies came onto the scene a few years back I have been LOVING them.  There is just something so yummy about bringing together 2 of my favorites, brownies and chocolate chip cookies. A little something extra As much as I love the traditional brookie I wanted to add in a little something extra…some caramel.  Now I could have just used some salted caramel sauce or caramel candy but I thought rolo’s would really put these brookies over the top. The rolo candy not only adds in a little caramel but also an extra bit of chocolate making these brookies truly something to remember.   Even the batter looks…

  • lemon bars for everyone

    Summer is here .  It is time to enjoy friends and family around a BBQ or campfire…or for a fun night in with all those that you love.   For me summer means it is time to indulge a little and these lemon bars are a perfect treat, and even better they are gluten free making it even more perfect for all of our family and friends. I have several friends who are living a gluten free life, and I am so, so impressed with them, but I know it can sometimes be hard for them when they are out with family and friends to enjoy everything…especially dessert, so I…

  • Blondes (& blondies) really do have more fun

    One of my most favorite times of the year is when the Easter M&M’s hit the store shelves.  I just love them so much…the colors are so pretty, there is pink involved and it also means Spring is coming and the cold weather is leaving.   So to celebrate my favorite M&M’s I decided to make them a star in these beautiful blondies. M&M Fun I have always loved a blondie.  They are sweet, light with the perfect hint of chocolate but these M&M blondies are even better than a more traditional version…they have M&M’s in them which makes them AMAZING!  To make these super yummy it starts with butter…

  • this ain’t your normal sugar cookie

    Sugar cookies are my mom’s favorite cookie.  She would eat them everyday, if I made them for her everyday.  Thankfully for her I don’t…or her time at the gym would be a lot more than it is right now. Time for something new My Mom is not the only one who loves sugar cookies though.  I am also a HUGE fan so when I was at one of my favorite  cooking store (Sur La Table) and saw these cookie stamps I knew it was time to make these shortbread sugar cookies.  Since I was going to be using a new technique I decided to use a new recipe. I have…
