    The Butterscotch Nut Bar You Need This Holiday

    December 23, 2020 /

    This recipe has been a long trial and error process. When I worked at the bakery we had a square like this and it was Kevin’s favourite. I have been trying to make this recipe like the one that’s used at this bakery and this is the closest I have come to the recipe. Kevin has been the guinea pig trying a lot of different recipes of this, some good, some bad and this was the one that he says is the closest. This will be my last Christmas recipe for 2020. I want to thank everyone for coming and checking out my recipes every week, I really appreciate you…

    ‘Tis The Season For Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies.

    December 20, 2020 /

    This is the perfect time of year to bust out all crinkle cookies! The chocolate crinkle cookies are great when you are needing a chocolate fix. Red velvet ones are perfect for adding colour to your holiday baking and they taste delicious too! I came across this recipe from Broma Bakery, made it once, and fell in love with it. These cookies are soft and chewy and flavorful. When I make a recipe the first time I make it as exactly as the recipe calls, then I tend to make my edits and tweaks until I get it to what I think is right. This recipe I don’t think I…

    It Wouldn’t Be Christmas Without Whipped Shortbread Cookies

    December 12, 2020 /

    I make these cookies every year at Christmas, and I always love how they taste! I love the way they melt in your mouth and taste little pieces of buttery goodness. The trick to making great shortbread is to whip the butter and sugar until it’s almost white. I use this tip with most of the cookies I make, the cookies turn out better. These cookies are the perfect addition to your holiday baking, and they make a perfect gift as well. I hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday baking as much as I am! INGREDIENTS 2 cups butter 1 cup sugar 4 cups flour 1/4 cup cornstarch   DIRECTIONS…

    The Best Fudgy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies That Will Make The Holidays Better!

    November 29, 2020 /

    If you never had Crinkle Cookies, you really need to ask yourself WHY? These cookies are like bite-sized brownies lightly covered in icing sugar, so they are chocolatey and sweet! You can make Chocolate Crinkle Cookies or Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies. Both of them are delicious but the chocolate ones always remind me of the Holiday season. I don’t make these cookies often cause I tend to be the one that sits there and eats them all in one sitting. Let me know what your favourite Holiday treat is! INGREDIENTS 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/2 cup vegetable oil 4 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla 2 1/2 cups flour 1 cup cocoa powder 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 cup icing sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch DIRECTIONS In…

    Old Fashion Ginger Snap Cookies, Just like Grandma Made

    November 1, 2020 /

    When the snow starts to fly all I want to do is wear sweaters and pack on the Winter weight. This time of year I tend to lean towards the more spicy flavors, the ones with some ginger or cloves in them. Gives you a warm feeling from the inside out. I made these cookies the other week and then I had to remake them. The first batch I made tasted delicious but I over-baked them so when they cooled they were hard. Not hard enough that stopped me from eating them, but hard nonetheless. This time they turned out perfect, and not that I minded the over-baked ones, but…
