Cherry Winks ~ Classic Cookies by Amos Miller

This is the original recipe for a cookie that won the 2nd Pillsbury Bake Off. They contain dates, pecans, maraschino cherries, cornflakes and a kiss of vanilla extract.

Baked Caramel Corn by Jane Evans Bonacci

Original recipe from Jiffy Pop Popcorn. The trick to this recipe is to stir the caramel until the sugar is dissolved and then don’t touch it again until you turn it out of the pan. Stirring brings any undissolved sugar crystals down into the mixture and the whole thing will crystallize again.

MILK CHOCOLATE FLORENTINE LACE COOKIES by London Glendenning

These ended up tasting like the kind sold at Trader Joe's or World Market- excluding the carmel drizzle that the store bought versions have. That said, they turned out to be really tasty, and I'm not sure I would even add caramel if I made them again. The process was pretty simple though VERY messy (I feel like anything requiring…

The Praline Sauce is a stand-alone that will add depth and excitement to any cake or pudding, but it marries perfectly with this Cajun-inspired recipe.
