Fleur de Sel Chocolate Chip Blondies

Fleur de Sel Chocolate Chip Blondies by Heidi Namba

These blondies are amazing! They are easy to make, contain basic ingredients and are downright delicious. I should have removed them from the oven a few minutes earlier but I was so concerned with the middle of the pan being thoroughly cooked. But I think even if the middle of the pan were a bit doughy, I would have loved it. Mine…

Oatmeal Jammys

Oatmeal Jammys by Heidi Namba

These are sooo delicious! I'm so glad I chose to make these. They are a soft & chewy oatmeal cookie with a touch of cinnamon and a big pool of sweet fruit jam in the middle. They are really really tasty and very easy to make. I used 3 different jams - apricot, strawberry & raspberry. I can't decide which was the best out of the 3…

Food Network Crispy Cakey Chocolate Chip Cookies

Food Network Crispy Cakey Chocolate Chip Cookies by Heidi Namba

This recipe is from my latest copy of the Food Network magazine. They had a whole section on chocolate chip cookie recipes. I'm a sucker for new chocolate chip cookie recipes - even though they kind of all start looking the same after awhile. They had the following choices - cripy, chewy, cakey or crispy cakey, which is what I…

Trisha Yearwood's Key Lime Cake

Trisha Yearwood's Key Lime Cake by Heidi Namba

I've been wanting to make this cake for quite awhile. Today was the day. The cake was delicious but it didn't wow me like I thought it would. I liked it enough that I would make it again. It's REALLY easy to throw together. Whenever a cake involves oil instead of butter, it's so simple. This one uses no butter in the cake - all…

Chocolate Sprinkle Cookies with a Kiss

Chocolate Sprinkle Cookies with a Kiss by Heidi Namba

I've always thought those well known peanut butter cookies with a Hershey's Kiss in the middle were cute. My family won't eat peanut butter cookies though so I figured I would try the idea with a chocolate cookie. I used the recipe below as a base but I didn't add the chocolate chips. After making the cookie dough, I simply scooped…

Red Velvet Layer Cake from Food Network magazine

Red Velvet Layer Cake from Food Network magazine by Heidi Namba

This recipe comes from the January/February 2012 issue of Food Network magazine. I've made many of red velvet cake recipes but wanted to try a new one. This one was delicious. I like the fact that it has butter and also oil in the recipe. I like the moistness that oil brings to a cake but I love the taste that butter adds. I…

Frosted Soft Sugar Cookies

Frosted Soft Sugar Cookies by Heidi Namba

I purchased a 10 lb bag of C&H Granulated Sugar over the weekend and this recipe was on the back of the bag. It's a soft sugar cookie with a buttercream icing. It's really tasty and sweet! You don't have to chill the dough, so that's nice. It's not the sort of dough you can roll out and cut into shapes. I simply scooped it out…

Chocolate swirled poundcake

Chocolate swirled poundcake by Heidi Namba

This is probably the best poundcake I've ever made. Honestly, it is so delicious. I did not follow the recipe exactly as written but I really like my results so I would suggest trying it with the changes that I made. The recipe did not suggest cake flour & it did not say to sift the flour but I think both of those changes were the…

Red Velvet Brownies

Red Velvet Brownies by Heidi Namba

Oh my word these are yummy! I wasn't so sure when I first pulled them out of the oven. I thought they were overbaked because the top had kind of a crust over it. I figured the whole pan would be dry. However, underneath that crust was a very moist and fudgy crimson brownie. Really really tasty. I found this recipe onThis recipe…

Cookies & Cream Cheesecake

Cookies & Cream Cheesecake by Heidi Namba

I haven't baked a cheesecake in awhile. I've had 4 blocks of cream cheese sitting in my fridge for a couple of weeks (it was a good sale) and cheesecake is a good way to use them all at once. This recipe is loosely based on a recipe that I came across on allrecipes.com:I made so many changes though that it's not really the same…
