Drop Sand Tarts

Drop Sand Tarts by Jann from PA

This is a holiday cookie! It is an easier version of an old-fashioned rolled out cookie. It tastes very similar, but is not as unique as when they were rolled out, cut in fancy shapes and decorated. The old cookies were first brushed with an egg wash (beaten egg and water) with a pastry brush then topped with sugar (usually red and…

Pie Crust Crisps

Pie Crust Crisps by Carolinaheartstrings

This month our food theme is All American Fare. Apple pie pops into my head when I think of a dessert that fits that theme. My mom was a great pie maker and apple was one of her favorites. She made the best pie crust ever. As a kid the part of the pie I loved the most was the crust that she trimmed off after she fit it into the…

Triple-Play Chocolate Drop Cookies with Mocha Frosting

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.

German Drop Cookies

German Drop Cookies by Salad Foodie

Pecan-laden German Drop Cookies are reminiscent of Mexican wedding cookies, but I like these even better for the cinnamon-laced powdery topping. You can make ahead and freeze the dough if well wrapped, then thaw and bake at a later date. This recipe appeared in Relish Magazine a few years ago.

Old-Fashioned Peanut Butter Crisscross Cookies by Salad Foodie

Peanut butter cookie recipes abound, but none of them came close to rekindling memories of the favorite from my youth - until I came across this one in an Old Farmer's Almanac. The first batch I made convinced me the recipe was the one from my early baking years. Ah - answered prayers!
