Yesterday I posted the recipe for my first attempt at dream bars. It was extremely tasty, but not the dream bars that I was looking for. Today is my second shot. I wanted to make the crust chewier and more moist. I wanted the top to be chewy but not cookie like. So I changed…
I love Potbelly’s Sandwich Works. They toast the subs, they are extremely cheap and they have Sheila’s Dream Bars. I purchase one of these puppies each and every time I enter Potbelly’s. So the other day I had a thought, why purchase a sub to get a Dream Bar when I could make them at…
Over Thanksgiving I was at my Sister’s house and she made these delicious cookies. When I asked for the recipe she said they were the worlds easiest cookies. That was the understatement of the year. These are the worlds easiest cookies by far. They are also extremely tasty. I ate about 20 of them. So…
Well I have made many chocolate chip cookies but never intentionally made thin and crispy chocolate chip cookies. I usually make thick and chewy cookies (my personal preference), but I wanted to see what all the fuss is with crispy cookies. So I did a search looking for thin and crispy chocolate chip cookies. To…
My Mom would always make these awesome chocolate cookies for me when I was growing up. I recently asked her for the recipe. Go figure, no-bake cookies require no baking. One pan, a little parchment paper and 40 minutes. Talk about quick treat. I couldn’t wait to try mine so I had one right after…
The other week I was stumbling around the internet and I came across a blog that featured a recipe for homemade Vanilla Wafers. I haven’t had vanilla wafers in years, and they looked amazing. So I decided to give the recipe a try to see if the vanilla wafers tasted as good as they looked….
The supermarket by my house makes these crunchy cookies that are filled with walnuts and have a chewy center. They are addictive. So I decided to look around and find a recipe for them. After a while I discovered a recipe that sounds delicious. Although it did not contain nuts, I figured we could work…
One of my favorite cookies is the white chocolate macadamia nut cookie. Here in DC Macadamia Nuts are quite expensive so I have never picked them up. That all changed last Thursday when I went into the local giant and they had Macadamia Nuts on sale. Granted they were salted, but they still were extremely…
The other night I was looking for something sweet to eat, but I didn’t have much in the pantry. Most cookies needed brown sugar and I was out. I also was lacking in chocolate and other sweet ingredients. Then I found some peanut butter, but peanut butter cookies require brown sugar. So I looked into…
Since it has been raining here in DC it has cooled off a bit. Yesterday morning it was 65 degrees. Perfect to read the paper and drink my coffee before work. The only thing missing was the perfect accompaniment to coffee. Shortbread cookies. So today, I made some light and fluffy shortbread cookies. This recipe…
I have been on a quest for the best chocolate chip cookies for a while. After a while I have figured out the ingredients needed to make a really good cookie. You need to use both butter and shortening. If you use all butter your cookies come out flat and crunchy. If you use all…
