A delicious easy fall dessert.

Sand Art Bars (Brownie Mix in a Jar: Holiday Gift Idea!) by Salad Foodie

This is one of the “bars in jars” recipes so popular a few years ago, and every so often during the holidays I resurrect it because it makes such a nice handmade gift, with WOW factor. The layered ingredients vary by color and texture and remind me of Native American sand painting and Arizona. Get an assembly line going and make…

Boston Cream Pie by Salad Foodie

The official dessert of Massachusetts since 1996, Boston Cream Pie actually goes back 140 years earlier than that. Created by a chef at Boston’s Parker House Hotel in 1856, it is not a pie, but a cake. There are many recipes around and this is just one version. Although only one layer, the dessert is rich and satisfying. I LOVE, LOVE,…

Triple-Play Chocolate Drop Cookies with Mocha Frosting by Salad Foodie

Homemade chocolate cookies are a sweet treat by themselves, but a crown of mocha frosting takes them from kitchen counter to coffee table for company-best! Baking chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate chips and cocoa combine for a rich chocolate experience. The cookies are mixed in one large saucepan, keeping cleanup to a minimum.

Molasses Cookies by Glenn

A modernized version of my grandmother's (Eva M. Koehler) molasses cookies--without the pearl ash. One of the great cookie treats of all time. This version is soft, chewy and more cake-like than what you will typically see. The egg wash topping is a truly lost art. For a lot of people this cookie will immediately transport you…

Raw Vegan Chocolate Fruit Balls by The Blender Girl

My mom and I make these raw fruit balls all the time and they are absolutely delicious. We use raw almonds, cashews and macadamias as our nutty blend. But you could use any nuts that tickle your festive fancy. Just know that each nut mix will yield a treat of a different personality. Roll out these vegan treats. They make great…

Honey, I Shrank The Tuxedo Cake by Joann Mathias

Here I go again. I've taken a perfectly good recipe and miniaturized it. I can't help myself, I'm drawn to the cuteness of personal size desserts. I'm not giving the directions for smaller cakes because most home bakers don't have really small cake pans. Just follow the directions below for a large show stopper of cake.
