I found this recipe while looking for cookie recipes to try out for our annual Christmas open house. I like something fancier for the party, but DD said we should make them for the open house. If I could incorporate chocolate somehow…. We will certainly make these again. They are delicious. Great honey / peanut […]

The recipe is from Chocolate: From Simple Cookies to Extravagant Showstoppers, by Nick Malgieri (Morrow Cookbooks, 1998). The recipe in the book calls for baking the brownies for “about 45 minutes.” I read multiple blogs regarding the same recipe, and most thought the brownies were better if taken from the oven after 30 minutes. Too […]

Like apple pie without the crust or added calories. 2-6 apples, depending on how many you want. I used 5 today; a combination of Golden […]

This is SO good! I wanted to make something this afternoon, then decided not to. Then DS#2 called to say he was running by this evening after taking DDIL to meet her family for the weekend. So DD and I sprang into action and made an apple upside down cake recipe that I found online. […]
I’ve had these cute little pasta shapes sitting in the pantry for several months. Today, I visited Nummy Mummy’s site and she had made them as mac and cheese and even served them in cute little flower pots. You gotta go see. Very cute! And give her recipe a try. It sounds so good! I […]
