Chocolate Chunk Ginger Cookies. I have a handful of memories from when I was very young. My oldest memory comes from when I was only eighteen months old. I was laying on the table in a doctor's office as the doctor hovered above me, putting stitches in my chin, the damage the result of falling and cracking my chin open on a stone fireplace.

I do not recall any pain or suffering, but I do remember my mother singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star while rubbing my foot to soothe my cries—a snapshot of tranquility in a scary world for a young child. I have often been curious why this particular moment caught in my mind, both vivid and cloudy at the same time. Perhaps it is a reminder of my mother's love for her daughter. On my third birthday, my mother gave me the independence to choose the outfit I would wear for my party. After my sister was born, I remember sandwiching her between my cabbage patch dolls while she slept, believing she might need some friends her own size. I couldn't have been older than four or five. Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipes. Oatmeal Cherry Cookies w/ Chocolate Chips + Walnuts. I made these cookies for my mom.

Well, I made the recipe for my mom so she’d have something to bake for my aunt’s annual holiday cookie party. In her usual fashion, my mom doesn’t want to bake anything. To quote her, “I hate-dat-dang-baking…”(to get the full effect, say it in one word, in your head like a scolding-Korean-mother would). What she really wants is to bribe one of her baking-friendly pals into make something totally cute and delish for her… except, according to my aunt, that is cheating. So, after figuring out what my moms dream cookie would be–something chewy and oat-y, with mix-ins, and the possibility of sandwiching some cream cheese frosting between two–I came up with these lightly spiced, chewy oatmeal cookies full of dried fruit, nuts, and chocolate. These cookies have molasses and thick oats, for lots of rich and chewy goodness. Oatmeal Cherry Cookies 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup rolled oats 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 cup sugar 1 egg.

Date & Strawberry Oatmeal Cookies. In case you can't already tell, I'm sticking to the really easy comfort-food recipes at the moment. I wanted something that I could whip up really quickly to have with a cup of tea while I whinged about how tired I was and how achey all my muscled are from packing and moving. These oatmeal cookies sandwiched with a date & strawberry filling were perfect. I didn't realise until after I was done making these that they would be the last thing I would ever bake in my current kitchen. It's made me a little sad because this is the kitchen where I really learnt to bake, the kitchen where I started my baking blog. The original recipe that I used for the cookies was a fantastic one from Joy of Baking, but it was a tad too much oats and not enough cookie for my liking so I have adjusted the quantities of the oats slightly in the recipe below.

It took me nearly three days to pack up all my props. Date & Strawberry Oatmeal Cookies 170 g (3/4 cup) butter, room temperature 1 large egg 1/2 teaspoon salt. Peanut Butter & Jelly Potato Chip Thumbprint Cookie recipe. Hi All! Did everyone have a great weekend? I did! I was styling a cookbook all weekend, but it was great nonetheless…why?

On top of the ladies being genuinely good people they remind me a lot of myself and Teri and the way we work together. Anyway, just wanted to share something that I’ve been working on lately that now means a lot to me :)…now back to food!

*Just a little tip: Don’t actually use your thumb to make the thumbprints…keep the balls of dough in balls and use your pinky…or something else small to make the hole…why? Peppermint Patty Chocolate Cookie Sandwiches. So sometimes I have these dreams where I wake up yelling like a lunatic and jumping on top of my husband to save me. Happens like twice a year. My husband is not a fan. In the past I’ve sworn there was a scary murderer crouching on the ground next to my bed… Another time it was a scary ghost-man floating above my bed, about to kill me. You know, just floating there. Then there was that time an older, stately gentleman wearing a dusty blue sweatshirt stood at the end of my bed shaking his head at me.

I think my subconscious is telling me that I am scared of ghost-men murderers. Seems valid. Anyway, I had one of these dreams the other night…but I am happy to say that the cycle has been broken. And was probably going to murder me. So yeah, I think I am scared of being murdered, by man or spider. So after I realized the spider was a figment of my imagination, most likely being sparked by watching Arachnophobia with my kids (which, btw, I THOUGHT was a comedy), I laid awake in my bed for a while.

Simple, Unique, and Darn Tasty: Pennsylvania Dutch Cinnamon Waffle Cookies with Maple Glaze. - Something Edible. Abstract: Sometimes where cookies are concerned, it feels like it's all been done. So, when I found a recipe for a cookie that bakes in a waffle iron, I knew I had to try it. The original recipe for this Pennsylvania Dutch Cinnamon Waffle Cookie or "zimmet waffle" was pretty lean on description and accurate measurements, so I took it upon myself to reconstruct this relatively simple recipe so that the buttery, spicy goodness that is this cookie recipe might be properly shared. And, because it's seldom in my nature to leave well enough alone, I concocted a glaze using real maple syrup to compliment the fragrant, floral spiciness of the cinnamon.

With a little trial and error, vague measurements and instructions from the original recipe were nailed down, resulting in a quick cookie recipe that comes together with only six basic ingredients (ok, well eight if you count the icing).
