Organic Finger Lime Sugar Cookies
I love sugar cookies! There is something about that slightly crisp exterior and soft interior that is just a delight to me. Now most people only make them around Christmas time. It’s fun to grap the kids and some decorations and let them play with their food. Sugar cookies don’t just have to be for…

SUMO Mandarin Sugar Cookie Recipe
I have been really excited for the SUMO Mandarin season to arrive. I had this mandarin for the first time last year and was really impressed with it’s flavor and juiciness. The SUMO was developed over a 30 year period in Japan, by a man who wanted the ease of peeling of a Satsuma mandarin…
Extra Chocolaty & Crispy No Bake Cookies
I have never been a big fan of peanut butter. When it came to PB&J, I always said forget the PB, just give me lots of the J. To this day, I don’t like eating this stuff on it’s own. However there is a way to get me to eat it – pair it up…

Giada De Laurentiis’ Double Chocolate and Mint Cookies
Having made chocolate cookies that night before, I really didn’t plan on making another batch today. However when I was browsing my site analytics, I noticed that people were coming to the site (via my guide to chocolate weekend on Food Network) in search for info on Giada’s Double Chocolate & Mint cookies. So I…
Alton Brown’s Chocapocalypse (Chocolate) Cookies
Whenever Food Network airs a new episode of a cooking show, they almost always post recipes for the show a day or two before the show airs. On Thursday morning, I discovered what Alton Brown was making for the final episode of Good Eats, entitled “Turn on the Dark”. The recipe that immediately jumped out…
Pink Peppercorn Sugar Cookies
Whenever I think of Christmas cookies, the basic sugar cookie always comes to mind. The perfect canvas for some serious Christmas artwork. This year I wanted to jazz up some of my sugar cookies. Last year, I came across someone using pink peppercorns in their sugar cookies. That may sound strange, but pink peppercorn aren’t…
