Everything Goes Oatmeal CoookiesThis is an original recipe. I was making them, years ago, because my children wanted a "loaded" oatmeal cookie that was good, soft and plump.

Ricotta Nut Chocolate filled CREPESLightness is key to the pleasures released by this otherwise sinfully prepared breakfast. The scrumptious filling was also kept creamy and caloricly light...by using bittersweet chocolate and partially non-fat milk.
