I have been a fan of Christina Tosi‘s for a few years now. I’ve had some treats from the original Milk Bar and have two of her cookbooks, but hadn’t yet tried one of her recipes. I really wanted to try at least one before 2018 was over. I opted for the cornflake-chocolate-chip-marshmallow cookie. This recipe…

No Chill and No Expanding Sugar Cookie Recipe
Any time is a good time for sugar cookie cutouts. I had a smallish window to pull together a cookie dough and get it ready for cutters, so I looked around for a recipe that didn’t require time in the fridge. I stumbled across In Katrina’s Kitchen’s recipe for the “Best Sugar Cookie Recipe Ever!” Check…
Brookies
Brookies, or brownie cookies, are always a nice treat. You get to enjoy the flavor of a chocolate cookie and a chocolate chip cookie at the same time. What’s not to like? For this bake, I gave this recipe by Mel’s Kitchen Cafe a spin. I really like how this recipe includes the weights for the dough…
Oatmeal Chai Sandwich Cookie
Today I utilized three different recipes I’ve tried in previous bakes and ended up with something very tasty! How tasty? The entire plate of cookie sandwiches was gone before any could be shared outside of the house! This has become a new favorite. May I present to you, the oatmeal pecan sandwich cookie with chai…
White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies
I’ve had a stash of macadamia nuts for a few weeks now and had been itching to try a new recipe for white chocolate macadamia cookies. I found a highly-rated recipe on Allrecipes and decided to give it a try. The recipe produced some very tasty and soft cookies. The only tweak I would make next time is…
S’mookies
Last night, I came across a video by So Yummy that highlighted different desserts you can make with take and bake cookie dough. Of course, right after seeing the s’mookie and pinwheel brookies, I knew I had to give these a go. Today’s bake was the s’mookies because we love s’mores at our house! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ S’mookies…
DoubleTree Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you’ve ever stayed at a Doubletree hotel, chances are that you’ve enjoyed one of their tasty chocolate chip cookies. I asked around for a decent copycat recipe to try and was sent to The Little Kitchen’s recipe. It’s been a while since I’ve had a Doubletree cookie, so I couldn’t do a side-by-side comparison for…
Soft Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies
Sometimes a recipe trial comes out of necessity rather than curiosity. My husband had oral surgery about three weeks ago and has had to be on a soft food diet ever since. This meant he had to cut out almost all of his favorite treats. One of his favorite cookies used to be Keebler Soft…
Chai Spice Sugar Cookies
Four magic words: Chai Spice Sugar Cookies This experiment comes from My Baking Addiction. 2 3/4 cups flour 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 3/4 cup white sugar 2 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tsp ground ginger 1 tsp ground cardamom 1/2 tsp allspice 1/4 tsp finely ground black pepper 1 cup unsalted…
Experiments with Chewy Oatmeal Cookies
Today’s experiments provided a mixed bag of results. The cinnamon apple additions worked great but I need to find a maple glaze recipe that provides a less sugary and a stronger maple flavor. Chewy oatmeal cookies (this recipe is essentially for a whoopie pie but makes a tasty cookie) – 1 cup unsalted butter softened…
