Chocolate Chip Meringue Bars by Farrell May PodgorsekA different twist on a chocolate chip bar. The egg yolks are used in the dough, and the whites are beaten with brown sugar to make a meringue topping for the bars. Made by his mother, these bars were a childhood favorite of my husband. It was a race to the mailbox when a shoebox full of these bars would be sent to him at… |

German Drop Cookies by Salad FoodiePecan-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. |

Chewy Crunchy Double Chocolate Brownies by Salad FoodieThese brownies are my all-time favorite. They have two unusual ingredients: brown sugar and coconut, which add interesting taste variations and make them more moist than run-of-the-mill brownies. Be sure not to over-bake. They will be done in 20-25 minutes if using a bright aluminum pan; adjust time or temperature appropriately if… |

Oatmeal Blondies by Farrell May PodgorsekI couldn't decide what to make one day. Did I want Blondies or Oatmeal Cookies. Why not both? The bars came out exactly as I wanted them to. Moist on the inside like a good Blondie should be, with a nice chewy texture from the rolled oats. I made these with chocolate chips and cinnamon, a great combination. Other nice additions would… |

Cookie Butter Blondies by Dominick CostaI am so in love with Cookie Butter, I want to incorporate it into everything I make for the rest of my life. Okay, maybe not, but it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. I decided to mess around with my Blondies recipe, to turn them into Cookie Butter Blondies! Replacing some of the butter with Chocolate Chip Cookie Butter is how… |

Old-Fashioned Peanut Butter Crisscross Cookies by Salad FoodiePeanut 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! |

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies by Nancy MiyasakiThis is a very popular recipe that I simplified a bit without losing any of it's goodness. You can serve these when you feel like a dark chocolate cake but don't have time to hassle with it. They make a wonderful end to any meal! They are super chocolaty, so they go really well with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream! |

Trail Mix Pizza by CarolinaheartstringsFrom time to time I succumb to the ease of refrigerated cookie dough. It is great when the project is really more than just making cookies. It gives you time to play with the creative part. But both dough and creativity take just a few minutes for this fun little “pizza” project that is sure to please those who love to snack on… |
