Oatmeal Blondies by Farrell May Podgorsek

I 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…

Spice Cake with Whipped Cream by Julie Reihl

A perfect fall dessert that will be enjoyed for years to come! Make it different by adding spices to your whipped cream or add raisins other dried fruits or nuts to the cake. Optionally, one could ice the cake with cream cheese frosting. I chose to top it with whipped cream, because the cream cheese frosting overpowered the cake the…

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!

This is such a moist and delicious cake. With orange zest in the cake and frosting, it adds an extra element of goodness! You'll never know there is zucchini in this cake either.

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies by Nancy Miyasaki

This 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!

A nice breakfast bar or snack, these granola bars start with ready-made granola to save time. Make them chewy or crisp, adjust the fruits, nuts and spices to your liking.

Trail Mix Pizza by Carolinaheartstrings

From 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…
