Chocolate Chip Coconut Brown Butter Cookies
I’m on something of a brown butter kick at the moment. It is a really tasty kick, if I don’t mind saying. After the Chocolate Spice Cake with Brown Butter Frosting I was looking for another way to use brown butter in sweets. I decided on cookies, since they are my favorite thing to eat, and I decided to use some coconut because I had some in the pantry. Really, these cookies were created simply by looking in my...
Bacon Cheddar Cookies
Yes, Cheddar Bacon Cookies. Now, before you ask, no this is not a sweet cookie. It is a savoury cookie perfect for appetizers for serving with a salad or soup. They are so good! These cookies are addictive. They are the perfect base for savoury spreads and toppings, but are just as delightful all on their own. What makes them so lovely is the tangy cheese combined with the salty nuggets of smoked bacon all mixed into a tender...
Strawberry Jam Tarts
Last October I had the opportunity to go to England and Ireland and the trip changed my life. Overall, I must admit, the food was pretty bleak. I was so busy preparing for my friend’s wedding (in which I was not only the Matron of Honor but I was the cake designer) that I ate a lot of quick meals and pub food. However, one lovely afternoon I had a traditional tea, and with that tea came some buttery, slightly sweet, jam...
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
It is a wonderful thing to have a good, trusty cookie recipe. It’s good because a trusty recipe can be changed, added to, and amended to create all kinds of different cookies. I have a lot of recipes that are what I consider ‘base’ recipes. They are fine on their own, but add a little of this and a little of that and you have a whole new dish that you can add to your rotation. The ‘base’ recipe for...

You came for these cookies, and you shall get them, but first … If you love baking as much as I do, and you have limited counter space like I do, stackable cooling racks are the perfect solution. I love my stackable, non-stick cooling racks so much I decided to buy an extra set and give them away! That’s right, I’m having my first ever giveaway! All you have to do is comment on this post, making sure to use a...
Almond and Chocolate Filled Butter Cookies
If given the choice of any dessert I want, I almost always pick the cookie. I adore them. During the Holidays I tend to eat and bake so many cookies that I get a little tired of them and I can’t stand to make them until Spring is fully underway. These cookies have a delicious secret hidden in them. A mixture of ground almonds, mini-chocolate chips, vanilla sugar, and cinnamon. I love little suprises like this in my...
