	Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way by Amos Miller I have always loved mincemeat - pie with vanilla ice cream or cookies and cocoa. This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf…	3 votes 2 reviews 9 comments 28837 views
	Scottish Shortbread by Marlin Rinehart This is the most famous cookie of Scotland. It’s a must to use pure butter. Traditionally, shortbread contains no other flavor. I’ve been making this recipe since 1970 when I got the recipe in Edinburgh, Scotland. The addition of a small amount of rice flour gives a firmness and crunchiness to the cookie.

	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…	1 vote 6850 views
	Lemon Pastry Squares (a.k.a Lemon Brownies) - a new take on Lemon Bars! by Salad Foodie This recipe has been circulating around the Internet as “Lemon Brownies”, but I think it deserves a more descriptive name.

	Everything Goes Oatmeal Coookies by J. Gino Genovesi This is an original recipe. I was making them, years ago, because my children wanted a "loaded" oatmeal cookie that was good, soft and plump. Now my grand children like them and I thought I would pass it on so others can enjoy them. They are easy to prepare and delicious. Chef J. Gino Genovesi	5 votes 5 reviews 2 comments 15254 views
	Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick! by Salad Foodie I haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen.	3 votes 2 reviews 4 comments 18468 views
	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!	5 votes 2 reviews 2 comments 5632 views
