I’d never before tasted Lofthouse-Style cookies. That was, not until I tested the original version of this recipe for Simply Recipes. Cindy Rahe– pastry gal extraordinaire- developed it. Check out the original version here. I’ve passed by the commercial version of these soft sugar cookies plenty of times in the store, sure. The key words there…

Coconut-Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies
Happy 2019 to you!! I wish you nothing but health, happiness and amazing recipes in the year to come. I’m going to help with that last one- don’t you worry. You may think the holiday gift-giving season is over, and for you, it may be; but for some of us, we’re still in the midst…
Gingerbread Reindeer Cookies with Royal Icing
You may or may not need to provide refreshments for a certain someone on Christmas Eve/Day. There’s a bit of controversy when I reveal who gets our treats, but whomever will be partaking of yours will be excited to see these Gingerbread Reindeer staring at them. Well…I mean…well, maybe not. Let me rethink this. Telling…
Cannolis: Three Different (Delicious) Varieties

Espresso Cheesecake with Biscoff Crust
Few things make my mouth water. That’s a bold-face lie. Lots of things make my mouth water. None like coffee- espresso to be precise- and Biscoff. I have a habit (whether it’s good or bad is undecided) of seeing just how far I can push the recipe envelope. If espresso and Biscoff are served together…
Pumpkin Spice Snickerdoodle Cookies
What dish reminds you of home? For me, it’s Snickerdoodles. Home, for some, is a relative concept. For military brats, like me, home is where you want it to be and different places can mean home. For me, home is primarily New York City. It’s where my mother’s family is, where some of my happiest memories…
