Neiman Marcus Chocolate Chip Cookie by Nancy MiyasakiI have a number of great chocolate chip cookie recipes. This is probably my kids' favorite. I'm not sure it's truly the original, but if it's not I can't imagine the original is much better!

Everything Goes Oatmeal Coookies by J. Gino GenovesiThis is an original recipe. I was making them, years ago, because my children wanted a "loaded" oatmeal cookie that was good, soft and plump.

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! |

Speedy Fish & Chips by Jennifer BlairThis is supposed to be a good for you dish, but all I can say it is a really good dish. I got this from my mother it was one of our favorites when I lived @ home. Now my kids go there & love it too. This is the only way they will eat fish other that a heavy, oily, deep fried mess. |
