The moment I saw these I knew I had to make them. Chocolate covered cherries in cookie form? YES! They were festive, different, easy, and delish. Fun new twist for a cookie exchange this season. Here’s the only thing, personally I would much prefer a fudgyer (that does not look right, is that a word?) cookie, so next time I’m going to try these cookie/brownie recipe from my Marshmallow Brownie Bites. That’s just me, but I still found every bite of these very tasty and really enjoyed sharing them!

Did you know they changed the oatmeal cookie recipe on the Quaker Oats box? It’s true! I make them so often that I recognized the difference right away, less butter AND less sugar. That’s just not right. I was making these for a Kyoukai no Shokujikai (OK, really it was just our church potluck), but I hadn’t planned to post the recipe. “It’s always available on the box,” I told myself.

This indecision can lead to disproportional amounts of anxiety over such mundane decisions as “paper or plastic?” Obviously it’s going to cause a lot of problems when I’m baking.

First, YUUUUUMMMMMMM! This peach cobbler was one of the first food blog recipes I ever tried. Last summer I found a version, using nectarines and cream, over at Joy the Baker. I’d never made cobbler before, probably never even eaten it. But it just looked so easy and I had some peaches on hand, so I thought, why not? Thank goodness the stars were aligned.

I was starting to feel like every single post was some shade of the predictable baking brown. That’s mainly because they all include very delicious brownish things; brown sugar, chocolate, butter, etc. But the page and my palate were due for a little color, wouldn’t you agree? So, time for some fruit. Now this recipe looked bright and cheery enough, but I had my doubts. Strawberry shortcake…cake? Continue reading ‘strawberry shortcake cake’
