Oatmeal-Chocolate-Cherry Mo...

When I saw this recipe, I was immediately drawn to the cherries, pecans, and chocolate chips nestled among oats. It reminded me of a cookie I made years ago for my high school sweetheart, Billy V. This version, adapted from Bon Appetit Feb 2012, is the same “all in” cookie, made even better by the addition of marshmallow fluff.

Flourless Cashew Butter Coo...

Unsalted, organic cashew butter and unsalted, roasted cashews make these dense, nutty cookies a great alternative to peanut butter cookies. And they are gluten-free.

Chocolate Stout Brownies

These delicious brownies are moist and deeply chocolate with a subtle bitterness from the stout beer. They can be served with or without the chocolate beer glaze and sprinkles. A great dessert for Saint Patrick’s Day celebrations.

NY Giants Big-Apple Maple G...

Fans of the NY Giants will love this delicious apple cinnamon cookie glazed with maple and cinnamon icing. Tangy Granny Smith apples work best. Adapted from How to Simplify.com.

NE Patriots Cranberry-Orang...

New England fans don’t have to travel too far from the stadium to find a classic cranberry bog. So here’s to you, cranberry-orange shortbread cookies with a little ginger zing. Adapted from Southern Living, December 2009.
