Cookie Week 2012 Day Three: Crispy Pecan Chews
Day three of Cookie Week comes with a little crunch. In our effort to bring you a variety this week we knew we needed to offer up something with real texture. This one does the trick. It is quite crispy when you bite it, but becomes chewy as you go. It borders on a thin […]
Cookie Week 2012 Day Two: Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies
Cookie Week moves forward with our second entry for this year… Double Chocolate Cherry Cookies. If you are a fan of chocolate, you are going to LOVE this cookie.

Cookie Week Day4: Pecan Tassies
We’re on the home stretch of cookie week. I must admit that I will be a little sad for it to end. Cookies are one of my favorite things to bake. They are just enough of a good thing. Getting a box of cookies delivered to your door might be one of the best things […]
Cookie Week Day3: Caramel Date Pinwheel
Our third entry for Cookie Week is this delightful little pinwheel cookie. We typically try to include at least one filled cookie with our holiday treats and this one answers the call perfectly. Not only does the swirl give you plenty of cookie to filling, but the pattern is interesting and adds an element of fun to […]

These are great recipes for mid-week as they are simple and, if well-planned, won’t take more than a 1/2 hour to make. The first […]
Oats Gone Wild: Pomegranate Granola
Day 11 of the New Year and we are all still trying our best to eat “healthy”. There are many healthy snacks and cereals out there, but many are either over-processed foods or, if not, they come with a ridiculous price tag. Today we are making our version of granola that, although does have some sugar, […]
Cookie Week Day 3: Chocolate Chip Cookie
As we proceed through our first annual Cookie Week, we stumble upon the undisputed King of Cookies, Chocolate Chip. This is as traditional as it gets.

Treat of the Week: Apple Cookie with Maple Brown Sugar Frosting
I’m impatient. There, I’ve said it. No matter how I try, it is one of the things I must continually try to improve. I will say that I have become more patient with age, but not nearly patient enough. At this time of year, my impatience is abundant. I simply cannot wait for fall. I […]
