Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookies

Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookies by Heidi Namba

For all of my fellow bakers, let me ask you this..... Do you ever get sick of making chocolate chip cookies? I personally find it so familiar and comforting to make them. I'd rather bake chocolate chip cookies then anything else. I can't possibly make them too much and there are SO many different recipes to try. It seems everyone is…

Lemon Crumb Muffins

Lemon Crumb Muffins by Heidi Namba

Are you a lemon fan?? Well then these are the muffins for you! There is lemon juice, lemon zest and lemon extract in these. The glaze that is spread on top after the muffins are baked makes for a nice tart but sweet bite! The edges are super crunchy and the muffin itself is moist with a fine crumb and lots of deep lemon flavor.…

Brown Sugar Pound Cake

Brown Sugar Pound Cake by Heidi Namba

This is sad. I mean, just look at these cakes. Not one of them came out of the pan smoothly. The real sad part is this is one of the best tasting pound cakes I have ever made. I LOVE this recipe! It's from one of my very all time favorite cake books:I've had nothing but luck with that book. Southern Cakes makes their brown sugar…

Old fashioned sugar cookies with buttercream icing

Old fashioned sugar cookies with buttercream icing by Heidi Namba

These cookies smell sooo good! Buttery & sugary! They are soft & sweet with lots of vanilla flavor. I found this recipe in my huge disorganized recipe binder. Lord only knows where I got it but I decided to try it. At first I was not so sure about the sugar cookies. I did not sprinkle the tops with sugar because I knew I was…

Toasted Oatmeal Cookies

Toasted Oatmeal Cookies by Heidi Namba

The last chocolate chip cookies I made, that I LOVED, were from my ancient Better Homes & Gardens cookie book. I was so impressed with that recipe that I had to try another recipe from that book. Here it is! Toasted oatmeal cookies! I made mine into oatmeal raisin but their recipe had called for chopped dates. I prefer raisins. I…

Perfect Snickerdoodles

Perfect Snickerdoodles by Heidi Namba

I really enjoyed these cookies. I came across this recipe via Tastespotting. It's from a blog called Bakergirl. I had never visited that blog but I will be definitely checking out her other recipes since this one was so awesome! I was intrigued by this recipe because it called for salad oil along with the butter. I had previously…

Better Homes Chocolate Chip Cookies

Better Homes Chocolate Chip Cookies by Heidi Namba

I've had my Better Homes & Gardens Cookie Book for years. Probably 15 or more years. It was one of the first baking books I bought. After that I went on to purchase more baking books that were fancier & not so unexciting. In fact, I kind of snubbed my nose at my Better Homes book (along with my Better Crocker). I hadn't even…

Coconut cupcakes in tulip papers

Coconut cupcakes in tulip papers by Heidi Namba

This recipe started with "my now favorite white cake recipe".I had a party at my house on Saturday night and wanted to bake something with coconut in it. My family does not like coconut so I don't often bake with it because I love it and I don't want to be the only person eating it! I decided on coconut cake. Then I remembered I…

Classic Diner Cheesecake

Classic Diner Cheesecake by Heidi Namba

This is one of the creamiest cheesecakes I have ever eaten. I'm surprised that it sliced so neatly because the texture was ultra smooth and creamy. I found this cheesecake recipe in a book called Diner Desserts, by Trish Boyle. This book had been in storage so I have not used it for years. It was fun to open it up and look at it…

Crispy Oatmeal Cookies

Crispy Oatmeal Cookies by Heidi Namba

I've once again been away for awhile. This time for a horrible reason. My father had a massive heart attack on January 9th & passed away on January 13th after being in a coma. It has been the worst month of my entire 44 years. I'm so sad and my family is devastated. Luckily I live directly across the street from my parents and so…
