Oatmeal-Pecan Cookies

Why is it that 99% of the time Mike or I crave cookies, there are no chocolate chips in the house? Probably because we cannot keep chocolate chips on hand or they will disappear. Both of us have shockingly little willpower when there is any edible (ie not [...]

Boston Cream Whoopie Pies

I try to keep food on my food blog and running on my running blog, but there’s a running-related back story for these little treats. I ran the San Francisco Marathon on Sunday (my fifth marathon) and qualified to run the Boston Marathon! This was my 5th marathon, [...]

M & M Cookies

You probably don’t really need a recipe for M & M cookies, since it would be completely fine to just use M & Ms in place of chocolate chips in just about any chocolate chip cookie recipe. But for some reason when I got inspired to make these, I [...]

Double Ginger Cookies

I think my feelings for ginger are about on the same level as most people’s feelings about chocolate. I am more than a little obsessed with it. Gingerbread, pickled ginger, candied ginger, ginger tea, and of course ginger cookies – I love them all.
These cookies definitely have plenty [...]

Chocolate Caramel Slice

There are so many things I love about my current job. I’m teaching language arts in a Summer Advancement Academy designed to help kids from under-privileged backgrounds prepare for college. A lot of my students have been in this country less than a year, but they’re all extremely [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Impromptu barbecues just kind of come together a lot with our group of friends, especially now that it’s summer. I always want to contribute dessert, but with such short notice it usually ends up being chocolate chip cookies because they’re so easy to throw together.
This weekend I decided to [...]

Peach Shortcake Cookies

There are two things that signify summer to me, and when they show up local, ripe, and fresh, I immediately shift into excessive-fruit-consumption mode. The two fruits I wait all year for are honeydew melon and peaches. When I lived in Oregon, blueberries would be on the list, [...]

Banana-Caramel Whoopie Pies

Ever since I discovered that frozen banana makes awesome soft serve (just puree frozen banana slices in the food processor. Amazing.) we’ve been going through a LOT of bananas. I’m slightly conflicted about this because I know it takes a lot of fuel to get them here, and there [...]

Whole wheat fig cookies

I was that weird kid that loved Fig Newtons. I’m not sure why, but figs have always been really appealing to me, even after I learned that they tend to have dead wasps inside (but don’t worry, commercially grown figs are pretty much wasp-free. I still suggest you [...]

Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

I steered clear of vegan baking recipes for a long time. I’m not sure if I was intimidated by unfamiliar ingredients, or afraid that the product would be inedible, but I was really reluctant to give up my beloved butter and eggs. Now that I’m head over heels [...]
