I mentioned these last week and I don’t want to gatekeep so I thought I should share the recipe. As I said, they were advertised as short-stack cookies that taste “exactly like pancakes that are slathered with maple syrup and butter” and I cannot stress how untrue that is. They’re really good sugar cookies, but… Continue reading Recipe: NOT Pancake Cookies

Looking at the title, you might be asking, “Do many blondies contain sludge?” and the answer is no, they don’t CONTAIN sludge, but I have a horrible problem with my blondies and brownies turning into sludge. Instead of baking, they somehow end up oozing out butter and oil and staying a grainy, gooey consistency no… Continue reading Recipe: Non-Sludge Blondies

I posted about this B. Dylan Hollis’s cookbook before, but now I’ve had a chance to try it and I’m bringing you not just a recommendation, but a recipe. It’s such a fun cookbook! The recipes are sorted by decade and each one comes with a little biography; it’s neat to flip through and track… Continue reading Recipe: Peanut Butter Bread

Many years and two blogs ago, I shared a recipe for cake mix cookies that I’ve since made millions of times; they’re quick and easy and customizable and people really like them. So when B. Dylan Hollis (the TikTok guy who films himself making and eating vintage recipes) made strawberry fluffies- a cake mix cookie… Continue reading Recipe (?): Strawberry Fluffies

According to Wikipedia, the nursery rhyme about knowing the muffin man comes from an actual old job where guys would go around selling English muffins as “snack bread” to people without ovens. They made so much noise ringing their “buy my English muffins” bells that there was a law passed against it, which they ignored.… Continue reading Recipe: English Muffins

This recipe comes from The Cookie Bible, which I was recently gifted so I’ve not had time to explore the whole thing- but the two recipes I’ve made so far both turned out great, so I have high hopes for the rest. I really wanted to make these because it’s a different sort of flavor-… Continue reading Recipe: Lemon Poppyseed Cookies

Last weekend I attempted to make millionaire shortbread (that’s shortbread topped with caramel topped with chocolate) for work. I had never made it before, and I still haven’t made it, because the end result was… strange and not quite right. I’m not going to post the recipe I used, because I want to try it… Continue reading Baking Fail-ish

The other week I was really in the mood to make unicorn bars (frosted sugar cookie bars with lots of sprinkles), so I looked up a recipe to try out. They came out great, so I’m bringing the recipe to you! I ended up using my own frosting recipe, but if you want the original… Continue reading Recipe: Unicorn Bars

It’s soda bread season! This post is going up after St. Patrick’s Day, so it’s technically late, but I made my soda bread late this year, so that’s okay. Plus this gives you almost a whole year to perfect the recipe- though it’s so simple, it definitely won’t take you that long to learn.

I may actually have shared part of this recipe before, because I’ve made the chocolate cookie part several times. A friend gifted me a set of cookie tiles that came with a recipe card for a dough that doesn’t spread when it bakes (i.e. the kind of dough you need to use if you want… Continue reading Recipe: Old Fashioned Chocolate Cookies with Peppermint White Chocolate
