Recipe: Blueberry-Orange Shortbread Roll-Out Cookie

Filed Under: Food and Drink, Recipes
Decorated Owl cookie

I've mentioned before that I have been making cookies. A lot of cookies. I perfected an awesome shortbreadish recipe and fell in love. And then came the awesome brownie cookie recipe. The dough tastes like a Tootsie Roll and the finished product? Chewy, chocolaty awesomeness...and I don't even like chocolate. After that, I created an Orange-Cardamom shortbreadish cookie based ...

tastelikecrazy cake

A few months ago I got on a cookie making kick. My experience in cookie making up to that point was basically...welp, I had no experience. I also didn't know how to make royal icing or even what goes into making royal icing. Piping bags made me shudder and why would you want to frost a ...

Simple Syrup recipe

Even though I have a whole category dedicated to Food and Drink, I haven't posted a recipe for Simple Syrup (It's included in a lot of cocktail recipes so I'm a bit chagrined to have overlooked this.). Simple Syrup isn't just for drinks. It's used in all sorts of recipes and comes in handy for sweetening cold ...

Homemade Instant Pancake Mix

Believe it or not, your pancakes won’t stick to your pan if the pan is hot enough. Promise. I made 12 of these bad boys Saturday and not a one stuck. I didn’t think it was possible either but I listened to the wise man who is Alton Brown and he didn’t let me down. Here’s ...

Easy Chocolate Yogurt Cookies

I'm not a big fan of sweets or chocolate; bacon and ribeyes are my idea of comfort food. Something tells me my "girl card" is in danger of being revoked. But I could eat these cookies all day long. They're a little crisp around the edges and gooey in the middle and are heaven when they're ...

Personal Sized Crustless Quiche Recipe

One of the many things I stressed about as I was preparing myself for Cara to start kindergarten was breakfast. I wanted her to eat something more than sugary cereal--which I worried wouldn't keep her full--but I didn't want to have to wake up any earlier than absolutely necessary. Enter make ahead and freeze breakfast stuff.

Mango Tomato Pico de Gallo Recipe

I'm in the process of making dinner--broiled tilapia tacos and I had to stop to jot down this recipe so I don't forget it. I'm sharing it with you because I love you...and I regularly use my own site to find food I've made in the past. But I love you. That's what's important. Best salsa thing I've ever ...

Recipe: Roasted Bacon Chicken with Thyme Garlic Yukon Gold Potatoes and Baby Carrots

Roasted/baked chicken is probably one the easiest--and most impressive--things I cook...other than my Braided Egg Bread; that stuff looks amazing and is a cinch. I'm all about maximum payoff with minimum effort. Even if you don't have the bacon--you should ALWAYS have bacon--this way of preparing a chicken will still work and is the way I ...
