These cookies are magical. They’re essentially the pastry form of a time machine. From the moment I tasted the dough, I was transported back to a way simpler time in life where I could eat half a dozen cookies in a day without total judgment because a kid giving in to her sweet tooth & …
Thanksgiving is coming up in just a couple of short weeks. While my Pumpkin & Cranberry Biscotti, Apple Pie Cookies, and Pumpkin Pie cookies are the perfect twist cookies to bring to any family gathering or Friendsgiving celebration, these Pecan Pie Cookies are just another great option of something with classic flavors in a new, handheld form. The almond …
This week’s cookie is the perfect recipe to roll out just days before Halloween. For one thing, they are all about the chocolate. And let’s be real–who doesn’t dig through their candy haul at the end of the night in search of something chocolatey? (I was all about those Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers …
It’s already mid-September and I am so ready for the fall weather to finally arrive. I’ve pretty much been trying to force it along by baking things with apples and chai and drinking all the hot coffee I can. I am already four seasons into my annual autumn Gilmore Girls re-watch (because really, it’s the best season …

This week, these cookies once again play on my obsession with British baking. (Funnily enough, the measurements are wholly American.) More importantly, these cookies stem from my obsession with the Great British Bake Off (& the SortedFood YouTube channel–every time they make or mention sticky toffee pudding I just want to hit the kitchen and …
Do you ever have foods that bring about certain memories? Maybe it’s that apple pie your mom makes a day or two after apple picking in the fall, that chocolate cake you eat every year for your birthday, or even that bag of Cheetos or mediocre pizza you share with a friend after a night …
This might be one of my more involved cookie recipes, but it may also be one of the best things I have ever baked. Filled with the flavor of peanut butter nougat (recipe linked below), these taste exactly like a Snickers bar & it’s just about impossible to keep your hands off of them! When …
Some days, you don’t feel like taking the time to bake a full batch of cookies. You don’t want to convert the recipe to make just what you need, nor do you feel like freezing some of the dough for later. There are days when you just want a quick fix, easy cookie that you …
