Baked Rice Pudding by Salad Foodie

We enjoyed this version of rice pudding, brought to a family dinner by my sister-in-law. For my tastes it’s best the day it’s made, so when there’s a crowd or potluck event, consider this ultimate comfort food for dessert.

Sweet and chewy bars are a cinch to make and will please most all of your hungry nibblers! The original recipe used some butterscotch chips in the glaze along with chocolate chips, but you can use all chocolate chips if you wish - the chocolate lovers in your home will approve!

Skinny Springtime Sugar Cookies, Terrific for Easter by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

These colorful old-fashioned sugar cookies are crispy, delicate and buttery tasting. And, I’m using just a small amount of reduced-fat butter combined with canola oil. What a yummy, low calorie treat to make for Easter. Each skinny, mini cookie has 37 calories, less than 1 gram of fat and 1 Weight Watchers POINTS. Although I like…

Blueberry Buckle by Salad Foodie

Chock full of blueberries, the tender and not-too-sweet cake batter produces a mid-morning coffee cake or dessert ‘extraordinaire’! A light streusel-like topping bakes to a fine crunchy top and it does indeed buckle or crumple a bit!

Chinese Almond Cookies by Salad Foodie

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies by Salad Foodie

Chewy, slightly soft texture with a hint of caramel pecan, these attractive cookies make a nice snack for company with coffee, tea or milk. Sometimes we bakers just have to break out of the oatmeal-raisin cookie rut, and these certainly do!

An old-fashioned dessert that has endless appeal. Whether you call it a crumble, crunch or a crisp - it is delish! Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and praise will abound.

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cookies by Salad Foodie

Zucchini cookies much like pumpkin cookies tend to have a cake-like texture rather than crisp or crunchy from the extra moisture of the vegetable. In this recipe the cookies come closer to a crisp/chewy texture through (1) extra draining step of the zucchini and (2) pressing the cookies down on cookie sheet before baking.
