Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

dscn5632

Running short on sweets, I had to think of something to bake today.  There has been a recipe on the back of every single Ocean Spray Craisins bag I have gotten recently that has really held my interest.  The oatmeal cranberry white chocolate chunk cookies. Don’t be fooled by this average-looking cookie with an incredibly [...]

Shortbread Cookies

Shortbread Cookies

I thought it was a huge coincidence that the very day I had planned on making shortbread cookies, Cakespy posted a Salute To Shortbread!  My mom’s birthday is early next week and she likes shortbread.  I thought it’d be a nice treat for her to have some homemade shortbread cookies, so I chose the Classic [...]

Happy World Nutella Day

As if you didn’t already know, today is World Nutella Day. I suggest you start celebrating and eat some Nutella! We have! That is my 3 1/2-year-old daughter enjoying this once-in-a-blue-moon treat straight from the jar. I also want to point everyone in the direction of my Nutella recipes here at The Sweetest Kitchen; namely [...]

No Bake Cookies

No Bake Cookies

Due to our recent oven failure, I cannot bake anything at all until the heating element is replaced. But I needed something sweet to eat, so I chose the chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookie. I hadn’t eaten one of these since I was in about third grade at my babysitter’s house, so I was thinking [...]

Snickerdoodles

Martha Stewart

How To Eat A Cupcake’s recent post on snickerdoodles rekindled my love of said cookie.

I’ve made a variety of different snickerdoodle recipes and none could really compare to the [...]

Pumpkin Spritz Cookies

Spritz Pumpkin Cookies

Wanting to do something Autumn-like, I pulled out my cookie press, mixed up a batch of spritz cookies and pressed them out in the shape of pumpkins. I added a touch of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger for an Autumn-like taste; this added a bit of spice to the basic spritz cookie recipe. The icing is [...]

Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookies, Continued

Nutella & Peanut Butter Cookies

We have yet another cookie for you this week. This must be cookie week at The Sweetest Kitchen! Don’t worry, I should have a cupcake for you next week. Now, I’ve already made a peanut butter and Nutella cookie, but I thought I’d try to make a cookie that is half peanut butter, half Nutella. [...]

Chocolate Crinkles

Chocolate Crinkles

I’ve been looking for a chocolate crinkle (also known as chocolate crackles or chocolate crackle-tops) recipe ever since I had a couple of these at a local bake sale. I loved them; they were so chocolatey and moist. But the baker has not gotten back to me about the recipe she used, so I am [...]

Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookies

Peanut Butter Cookies

This is obviously not a cupcake, but still sticking upon the topic of Nutella from the last post – peanut butter cookies swirled with Nutella. I created this today because I love peanut butter and Nutella together (although care should be taken when eating plain pb and Nutella at the same time so as not [...]
