Pumpkin Cupcakes with Orange Spiced Cream Cheese FrostingFor a Thanksgiving celebration at my daughter's school I made these pumpkin cupcakes. While they are definitely not low in sugar or fat, they are delicious and easy to make. I made the frosting on my own, experimenting with flavors and finally decided upon cream cheese frosting with orange zest and a bit of pureed pumpkin. YUM! |

Molasses CookiesA 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… |

Brownie S'MoresI still like S’mores, but I’m grown up and seldom sit around a campfire anymore. Occasionally I’ll treat myself to some melted marshmallows after I finish grilling our dinner, but I wanted an easier way to get my treat, where I don't have to have a hot BBQ or be around a campfire! I used my own Classic Fudgy Brownie recipe and topped… |
