Maple Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies

November 1, 2011

A breakfast cookies is a larger cookie that has less sugar. It’s intended to be healthier, more filling, and less fattening. Think of a breakfast cookie as something between a regular sugar cookie and a scone. I went slightly crazy making cookies this weekend, with a freak blizzard in October all a-brewing outside. Most of […]

Have you ever had one of those chocolate oranges? You know, those absolutely divine chocolates shaped like oranges? Everyone secretly wishes for one in her Christmas stocking.

I feel like a Brit. You wouldn’t believe the excitement on my face when I found crumpets in Trader Joe’s. I was so happy, I gasped with joy. My excitement gathered momentum as I read the ingredients and found no dairy. Fantastic! Now, you’re probably wondering why I don’t make them from scratch. Ha. I […]
