Today I am serving you up Sweet Molly’s; a cookie from my past. There used to be a bakery in Yorba Linda called Sweet Nicks, and they served the best cookie with butterscotch and potato chips. The cookie became so popular that the city named it the “Official Cookie of Yorba Linda”. Over the last…
Can you believe it’s already Christmas Eve? Where did this year go? I know most of your baking has been done but I have one more to share. It really is a cookie for any time of the year. Looking for new cookies recipes I found an article in the LA TImes naming their staff…
Before I share my latest cookie recipe, I wanted to let you know there is a new way to follow Adventures in the Kitchen. You can find me on Facebook. Stop by and say hi. For day three of Christmas Cookie week, I am sharing a new favorite! I have wanted to make these since…
While I love our family cookies, I am always looking to expand and find those new cookie treasures to add to my collection. Very rarely do the new ones make the permanent list but these have been added. I saw Giada make these cookies on her show and thought they’d make a great new addition…
These little pecan tootsies have a buttery cream cheese dough. One bite pecan pies. Christmas is almost here and I have sorely neglected this blog. Hopefully a week of Christmas cookie recipes might redeem me. Each family has their traditions and their Christmas cookie favorites that are passed down from generation to generation. Once a…
Things have been going so well. I had stopped the cookbook madness. Have I confessed that I have a few cookbooks? It is a problem really. But I was had been resisting the urge when I entered bookstores, for over six months. Then I discovered this new cookbook, Baked: New Frontiers in Baking and it…
Looking through my files I realized I had not shared one of my favorite new recipes that I made this summer. In what appears to be a small recent trend the recipe includes both brown sugar and roasted peaches. At this little cafe near my house they had these cookies one day that my boss…
I love a good mystery and imagine my excitement to find a series of murder mysteries featuring a caterer. Authored by Diane Mott Davidson, the series features Goldy Schultz and each novel is full of recipes from the novel. They are dangerous to read while hungry. On the way to Vegas two weeks ago I…
Here are the bars shown in the last post. They combine the tastes of chocolate chips cookies and macademia nuts over shortbread. These were easy to mix up and were gobbled up at the party. They can be made up two days before the event. Just store in an airtight container.
I think I fell in love today. No, not my future, but with a new way to use lime in cooking. Have you had those meltaway cookies covered in powdered sugar? They look so appealing from afar but then you take a bite and the cookies are a bit hard. They do not live up…
These Special K cookies are crisp, buttery and filled with Special K cereal. Special K cookies were part of my early adventures in the kitchen. I remember both my mom and my grandmother making them and getting to help. It is a comfort cookie bringing back memories of my childhood. Over the years we tried…
I think that this blog has documented I have a thing for limes. Sweet or savory dishes taste great with the addition of lime. A few summers back I was looking for something to bring to our annual 4th of July barbeque. On the Martha Stewart website I came across these cookies. The cornmeal gives…
