These Pumpkin Spice Bars Cream Cheese Frosting fall into the grey area between brownie and cake. They are cakey and frosted, but you can eat them with your hands. (Imagine a cake brownie, but made with pumpkin… and then frosted) (umm… that might have just confused the everyone). Anyway… They are perfect for Fall, AKA […]
Cookies & Brownies
Mocha Brownies
These Brownies are not really Brownies. They are actually a thick, rich Mocha Bar Cookie mixed with Chocolate Chips and topped with a Chocolate Icing. Let’s just call them Mocha Brownies. This recipe came about after a few days in Southern California… turns out, I can’t spend ALL my time lounging by the pool (although, […]
Chocolate Coconut Brownie Recipe
This delicious Chocolate Coconut Brownie Recipe makes a delightful Brownie that reminds me of a candy bar. They are as gooey as a Brownie can get … without falling apart in a pile of chocolate mush. The coconut topping is flavorful and sweet… toasted just a bit for extra coconutty goodness. (My daughter says that […]
Chocolate Chip Meringues
Woke up this morning and the barometer in my nose said it would be a good day to bake Chocolate Chip Meringues. (Dry and cold…great for egg whites, lousy for sinuses). So.. I leaped out of bed and raced to the kitchen, where I whipped up some perfect Chocolate Chip Meringue cookies! hahahahahahaha Truth be told… […]

Snickerdoodle Bar Cookies
Cinnamon Sugar is a favorite in our house, we even keep a shaker of it on the counter by the toaster, so it’s a natural that we adore Snickerdoodles. I came across this recipe for Snickerdoodle Bar Cookies with White Chocolate, and I HAD to make it. But because I can’t leave well enough alone, I […]
Chocolate Mocha Cookie Recipe
Coffee…? Chocolate….? Can’t decide…. Have both! This rich, decadent, and sort of goofy looking Chocolate Mocha Cookie Recipe is loaded with tons of chocolate, and flavored with coffee. It’s not a cookie for the faint-hearted, and it might keep you up at night….But in the middle of the afternoon…when you’ve hit that low point, these […]
Double Chocolate Cherry Cookie Recipe
I have a good reason for baking this Double Chocolate Cherry Cookie Recipe. Someone once actually told me how lucky I am to be an At-Home mom …. I can just sit around all day eating chocolate covered cherries and watching Oprah. Huh? My first impulse was to whack some sense into that pea brain, instead I […]
Chocolate and Oreo Cookie Recipe
The idea for the Chocolate and Oreo Cookie Recipe came out of the mouth of an 8 year old. We were getting ready for a soccer tournament, and I wanted to take along some cookies for snacking. My daughter loves chocolate chip… but then she said maybe she’d rather have chocolate chocolate chip… then she said […]

Peppermint Meringue Cookie Recipe
Well… I guess I just have to go along with it… Christmas Season is upon us. I’ve been in a state of denial… ignoring the decorations… blocking out the “Jingle Bells Muzak”…. blindly toting in the massive stacks of catalogs from the mailbox without regard to why I’m suddenly flooded with them. But I can’t […]
Chocolate Peppermint Sandwich Cookie Recipe
I made this Chocolate Peppermint Sandwich Cookie Recipe as sort of a challenge (admittedly, it wasn’t a tremendous challenge, but I did get to stretch my brain just a bit). They are kind of a knock-off of the Peppermint Oreos that Nabisco produces at Christmastime. They are deeply Chocolate cookies with some thick yummy peppermint […]
