Baking through the Martha Stewart app
This time of year is…awkward. Halloween is over, I’m ready for Christmas, but there’s still the problem of Thanksgiving in the way. I think this recipe will fit the inbetween season well.
This comes from Martha’s new book, Cookie Perfection.
PERFECTION?! That’s a strong word, Martha! Yeah…I pre-ordered it because LOOK AT IT. Continue reading

Last week I thought, “Oh, look, it’s all cold and wintery outside. Time to make some more Christmas cookies!”
Little did I know these would KILL my Christmas spirit. Ugh. Continue reading

Shout out to all you gluten-free people out there. This one’s for you.
We had a “no bake/no cook” potluck at work, so I decided to make these. Continue reading

These might seem like they’re meant for the holidays. That’s because they came from the Sugar and Spice section of the app.
Do I care? Let’s see… Continue reading

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.
Before I begin, I have to say that this blog is now officially natemakescookies.com! Tell all your friends!
I made friends with another dessert blogger, Carrie at cookiecarrie.com. We decided to send each other some goods and this is what I decided on:
Cute, but where do you get a moose cutout? IKEA! Continue reading

According to Martha, brownies are cookies. I’ll accept that.
The app has 4 different brownie recipes in one, so you’ll see this picture again in the future. Today I chose cream cheese brownies!
I think you can guess which one is the cream cheese brownie. Continue reading

Happy 30th recipe to me! It’s crazy, considering before I started this blog, I’d probably only baked 30 times in my entire life.
This time I made Chocolate Mint Wafers. Although this is in Martha’s “Holiday Cookies” section, I wanted them now.
Why? Well, these are basically Thin Mints and those snotty little Girl Scouts aren’t selling cookies this time of year!
I omitted the nonpareils for a less-Christmasy look. Continue reading
Chocolate Chip Cookies. A f’ing legend. You may recall that I’m afraid of them. I’ve screwed up a lot of batches of chocochip cooks in my day. I figure I’m ready, though. These look delicious and will be fine.
Cross your fingers for me. Continue reading

Crap. I’ve been a bad baker/blogger. It’s been almost a month since my last post. I have baked one batch of cookies in that time, but was too [choose your excuse and insert it here] to post it.
I’ve been wanting to make these ones for a long time, but haven’t been able to find candied ginger. I looked in the spices, in the asian aisle, and in bulk. I finally asked a couple people at Market of Choice and found it in bulk with the dried fruit. D’oh!
Oh, the last ones I made had glaze like this? So what, who cares? Continue reading
