A combination of snickerdoodles and molasses crinkles, these Snickercrinkle Cookies have the texture of molasses crinkles (flat cookies that are crispy outside, but soft and chewy inside), and the flavor of snickerdoodles (buttery, cinnamon-y, and slightly tangy because of the cream of tartar). Last holiday season I went to a cookie exchange. Before going, I knew that all the classic favorites would be there (like peanut butter kisses, frosted cut-out cookies, hello dollies, Russian tea cakes, jam thumbprints, and all kinds of fudge), but I wanted to bring something different. I searched online, in numerous cookbooks, and even in my mom’s recipe box, but I didn’t […]...
Maple Pecan Shortbread
Maple Pecan Shortbread cookies are rich and buttery, with the complex sweetness of maple and nutty crunch from pecans. These little lovelies are another recipe that was inspired by Tim Hortons. They sell boxes of maple shortbread with some kind of nut (I can’t remember if it’s walnuts or pecans); the cookies are good, but the idea has the potential to be great, which is why I wanted to try my hand at a homemade version....
Apple Crumb Cake Recipe

Before I tell you about this cake, I want to give a huge, heartfelt thank-you to all of you who commented on my last post! Your kind thoughts and words of encouragement meant the world to me.

Molasses Crinkles Cookies (Chewy Molasses Cookies)
Richly spiced with ginger, cinnamon, and cloves these chewy Molasses Crinkles Cookies are perfect for fall baking. And they’re a lovely addition to a holiday cookie platter! I once slept for 23 hours straight. It was crazy…I woke up and had lost almost a whole day of my life! A solid 6 hours is typically all my body needs to feel refreshed, but on that occasion there were special circumstances....
Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies (aka Oatmeal Scotchies)
Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies (also called Oatmeal Scotchies and Oatmeal Scotch Chippers) are a delicious pairing of sweet butterscotch chips, nutty walnuts, and hearty oats! Another summer gone, and gosh, it went fast! I remember as a kid, summers seemed to be never-ending. I’d spend hours each day riding my bike, swimming, or exploring, only surfacing to eat and sleep....
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Classic chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies with walnuts and warm spices are the perfect afternoon snack with a glass of milk! Anyone out there have a picky kid to contend with? Even though I don’t have kids of my own yet, my niece is at my house all the time. (I love it because I get to spend time with her, and she loves it because we hang out and watch classics like The Little Mermaid and make yummy snacks like Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. ;) )...
Parsnip Cake Recipe with Maple Buttercream
Parsnip lends an earthy sweetness similar to roasted chestnuts to this maple-sweetened, cinnamon-spiced Parsnip Cake Recipe with Maple Buttercream. I think I remember Ina Garten once saying that dessert is the most memorable part of dinner. She’s so right, dessert is the real deal breaker. Dessert is the course that takes an ordinary dinner and makes it wonderful or a good dinner and makes it outstanding....
Ingredient Substitutions
I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been inspired to try a new recipe only to realize that I’m missing a key ingredient (or worse yet, when I’ve already started cooking and mid-meal I realize I don’t have everything I need). Of course, a trip to the market would fix that, but if you can utilize other ingredients that you already have on hand, it’s even better. Some substitutions that I make are to use what I have on hand, but I make other substitutions to healthy things up a little. Next time you’re in the kitchen and you realize you don’t have an […]...
