I’ve always wanted to try strawberry cookies. Freeze-dried strawberries are perfect with creamy white chocolate in these summery tasting cookies. Strawberry-White Chocolate Chip Cookies original recipe Ingredients: 1 cup unsalted butter 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup brown sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 large eggs 3 cups flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. salt 7 oz. white chocolate, chopped (I used one box of Baker’s white chocolate) 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries Instructions: […]
Root Beer Cookies
A long, long time ago when I was a little girl, my mother’s good friend brought us a plate of Root Beer Cookies. Clearly it was a memorable day because since then I have personally made these cookies probably a hundred times. They are one of my family’s favorite cookies now that I have children of my own. My son asks for them more than any other cookies. I originally posted this Root Beer […]
Blood Orange Cream Cookies
So there’s this blog I’m totally in love with. (And I’m not alone.) And every time Cannelle et Vanille shows up on my reader, I feel my heartbeat quicken a bit. I know I’m not only in for some gorgeous pictures, but a well thought out, wonderful combination of flavors and textures embodied in a recipe. When I saw her Lemon Cream Cookies post, I finally got up the nerve to attempt one of […]
Hazelnut-Toffee Cookies
These Hazelnut-Toffee Cookies are very good. Veeeerrrrry good. Soft and chewy. Studded with chocolate, crunchy hazelnuts, and buttery toffee. Just the best cookies EVER. For reals. I’m kind of at a loss as to what else to say about them… Ha! The base of the cookies is from my favorite Root Beer Cookies recipe. We found that leaving out the extract makes the most delicious brown sugar cookies too. And from there, we’ve made […]
Chocolate Mint Cookies
And yet another post full of sugar and carbs…Am I ruining your diet? Sorry…I gave up on being thin a long time ago. (That’s a blatant lie–I still have high hopes.) Mint and chocolate. Who’s with me? It’s a good thing, right? Especially for a Friday? Chocolate Mint Cookies for the win! Back before Christmas, I bought a bag of Andes Creme de Menthe baking chips. I’ve been saving them and saving them. Then I […]
Chocolate Malted Whopper Drops
It’s good to be back and baking! Thank you to everyone for the sweet comments. I am feeling almost back to normal. And we have almost settled into our new place. My baby is six weeks old today and for me that is a huge milestone! We made it! We love, love, love malt at our house. LOVE IT. We were excited to give these a try–even with Whoppers. (Maltesers are sooooo much better, but […]
Malted Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookies
I’m a huge fan of malt, but my husband is more so. He adores it. My little chef and I decided to make him a batch of malted cookies last week after he’d had a particularly hard day at work. Three of his favorite things in one cookie–malt, oatmeal, and milk chocolate. They were a huge success. (And I confess to eating more than my fair share of the dough.) This recipe makes a lot […]
