First on the list to make were oatmeal raisin cookies, my personal favorite. My favorite oatmeal cookie recipe is the "Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin Cookies" off the Quaker Oats box. They are a perfect soft,…

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas by Jennifer Holman

I am addicted to Mexican food. Seriously... not joking. I love it. Good chips and salsa are my favorite snack. I'm picky about my Mexican food too. None of that ketchup-y flavored salsa and such. Around here, good Mexican food is pretty hard to come by so I often make it myself. I usually feel like my salsa is better and its no where…

Parmesan Panko Crusted Chicken

Parmesan Panko Crusted Chicken by Jennifer Holman

If you haven't discovered panko bread crumbs yet, find them. In my opinion, they are so much better than regular bread crumbs. Panko bread crumbs are commonly used in Japanese cooking and result in a crunchier coating. They are much lighter and airier than traditional bread crumbs.When you want to make chicken quickly, butterfly your…

Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Bars by Jennifer Holman

If you don't know what dulce de leche is, you need to find out... now. Its a dark, thick, creamy, caramel-y sauce made from sweetened condensed milk that takes these cheesecake bars from good to oh.my.god.good.

Chocolate Banana Caramel Cupcakes by Jennifer Holman

These banana cupcakes are great with or without the frosting -- the cupcake is so moist, essentially like really good banana bread in cupcake form. Add a caramel cream cheese frosting to the top and it's a decadent treat. Drizzle them with a little chocolate sauce and not only do these taste awesome, but they look great too.Just a…

Chicken Enchilada Soup

Chicken Enchilada Soup by Jennifer Holman

It’s cold and gloomy here which is perfect soup weather. Especially when that soup has a little heat of its own from some spicy jalapeno peppers. I'm not really ready for winter weather yet -- I held out as long as I could before having to turn the heat on but with temperatures getting down in the 30s and 40s, this week was the end.…

Chocolate Cherry Coke Cupcakes

Chocolate Cherry Coke Cupcakes by Jennifer Holman

The cupcakes are essentially a chocolate buttermilk cupcake made with coke. The filling is cherry pie filling (you can make a filling from scratch if you want but there are already a few steps to these so I took a shortcut - I also used light filling so it wouldn't be too sweet). The coke glaze really adds some coke flavor to the…

The recipe said to make sure you use the kind with pudding in the…
