Remember Little Debbie Snacks? Zebra Cakes…Swiss Rolls…Nutty Bars…Oh man, those treats were the greatest part of any packed lunch back when we were kids, right? Especially the Oatmeal Creme Pies.

It’s hard to believe, but the three dozen Chewy Chocolate Cherry Oatmeal Cookies I made on Friday are almost gone. I wish I were kidding, but…there are maybe 10 cookies left in the jar. Yeah. Dan and I are gross. In a last ditch effort to exercise self restraint, I have packed away the remaining…read more »

OK, raise your hand if you liked oatmeal cookies when you were a kid. Anyone? No? You in the back, put your hand down, I don’t believe you. Nobody liked oatmeal cookies when they were kids. Those hard, lumpy, raisin-filled things were are always the reject cookies at kids’ birthday parties, lingering on the table…read more »

Raspberry Cream Cake…and a Giveaway!

February 12, 2012 16 Comments

You know, I had big plans for my Valentine’s Day post. I was going to poach lobster tails for dinner and make Mini Red Velvet Trifles for dessert. Sounds delicious right? Yeah…problem was, I couldn’t find cake flour at the grocery store, and by the time dinner rolled around I was feeling too lazy and…read more »

Nutella Double Chip Cookies

January 16, 2012 10 Comments

Hello, my name is Tina, and I am a Nutella addict. I eat it slathered on anything remotely slather-able so that it doesn’t look like I’m just eating Nutella, I order strawberry and Nutella crepes so that I can very casually suck out all the filling, and I have to stick any jar of the stuff…read more »

Christmas Sugar Cookies

December 19, 2011 3 Comments

On the 9th day of Christmas…our friends Amy and Brad invited us over for a holiday/cookie-decorating party. They throw the best parties with the most delicious and deceptively lethal cocktails, so there was no way that Dan and I were going to miss out on this one! Plus, they asked me to make the cookies…read more »

Triple Delight Cookies

A lot of food bloggers have started their days-before-Christmas count downs already, and the result has been an explosion of posts featuring all kinds of different Christmas cookies, egg nog, gingerbread houses, and the like. Talk about peer pressure! I had originally wanted to wait until exactly 12 days before Christmas to start my list,…read more »

German Chocolate Cake Cookies

November 21, 2011 13 Comments

Dan and I had a wonderfully lazy day in yesterday. We woke up late, ate leftovers, sprawled on the couch, teased the cats, played video games (well, Dan did) and watched way too much TV. We didn’t do any work, we didn’t shower, and the only time we left the apartment was to step out…read more »

Snickerdoodles

November 7, 2011 11 Comments

So, usually I have some kind of back story or anecdote to explain why I’ve made something, but…I got nothin’ this time, y’all. I just really like Snickerdoodles. They’re practically the perfect cookie — crispy on the outside but chewy on the inside, buttery, coated in cinnamon-sugar, and so light/airy that they almost melt in your…read more »

Banana Whoopie Pies with Nutella Buttercream Filling

October 18, 2011 20 Comments

So, if you guys were paying attention, you’ll recall that I said there were four over-ripe bananas on top of my fridge. But, only two of ’em went into my banana cake. That means that as of 7pm last night there were still two mushy (quickly getting mushier) bananas laying around, attracting millions of fruit…read more »
