Recipe 50: Double-Chocolate Brownies
This is brownie recipe number two from the app. I remember the cream cheese brownies being great, so I had high expectations.
I already had the ingredients on hand (for once), so this was an easy choice.

Recipe 49: Mini Peppermint Meringue Cups with Ganache
This is the final of my [insert excuse for being late] holiday posts for the year. These could be eaten all year round, though, if you’re obsessed with peppermint like I am.

Recipe 48: Walnut Rum Wafers
You know you’ve made it when you’re invited to an exclusive, annual all-day baking party! I originally was going to make rugelach, but that was going to take forever. Luckily, there was a lot of drinking happening at this party, so there was rum available for this one.
I was having so much fun that I forgot to take pictures of the host, Lisa, or any of the other guests! I’m terrible. Continue reading

Recipe 47: Chocolate-Coconut Macaroon Cups
This might be one of my shortest blogs ever. These were that simple. I was attending a party and was asked to bring cookies. I made the very popular Coconut Cherry Oatmeal ones, but also made these for my gluten-free friends.

Recipe 44: Gingersnap Cookies
I’m watching a Christmas movie to get me in the mood to write this blog. It’s not a good one, but I’ll take what I can get.
This was my first time making gingersnaps (surprise). Let’s see how it goes.
Recipe 43: Cinnamon-Chocolate Macaroons
I’ve been blogging for a year! Can you believe it? I almost averaged 1 per week, which is pretty good!
This is my first holiday-ish cookie of the year. There are some weird ones coming up, but first, these!
Recipe 42: Mocha Madeleines
What the hell is a madeleine? That’s a weird-looking cookie, I thought.
I found a madeleine pan at TJ Maxx and got ready. If you know me, you know how much I love coffee, so this was perfect. Continue reading

Recipe 41: Italian Polenta Cookies
Polenta. I can’t say cookies come to mind when I think of it. Whatever you say, Martha.
It felt good to bake again. I went almost 3 weeks! I’ll never do that again.
This one required a piping bag, which I’ve had bad luck with. Here it goes! Continue reading
