Icing on the Cake: blissful mistakes: inventing almond butter cookies
http://icingonthecake-carly.blogspot.com/2012/12/blissful-mistakes-inventing-almond.html
Icing on the Cake. Wednesday, December 12, 2012. Blissful mistakes: inventing almond butter cookies. I accidentally grabbed the jar of almond butter. A delectable accident, the cookies were a sweet-salty, crunchy-smooth mouthful of deliciousness. I played around with ingredients and measurements, taste tested them on family and friends, added some candied pecans for festive zing, and then sent them off for the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap of 2012. What is this cookie swap? The Way to my Family's Heart.

Icing on the Cake. Wednesday, December 11, 2013. I have a secret. This cookie recipe, this wonderful, glorious cookie recipe, produces the world's most magical sugar cookies. I have witnessed grown men groan with delight eating these cookies, foodies swoon at the sweet-salty combo, and children steal the cookie plate and hide it away so they can eat the cookies all by themselves without any adults stealing more. You know what else is magical? Being part of a cookie swap. Lindsay. 2 cups white flour.

Icing on the Cake. Monday, October 7, 2013. Honey chai peanut butter. I'm not sure if there are enough words to sing the praises and popularity of peanut butter. People swoon a little when they talk about eating peanut butter, making faces akin to the strangely happy women on flavored yogurt commercials. A friend of mine is nicknamed "peanut butter." People eat it for comfort, for dessert, for lunch, for a snack, the list goes on. Honey Chai Peanut Butter. 2 cups of roasted, unsalted peanuts. Honey chai ...

Peanut butter and jelly blondies, tweaked ever so slightly from a recipe in this month's Bon Appetit. Magazine. These things taste like the best version of a peanut butter sandwich that could happen to a food-loving person, so I'm sharing my (lightly) adjusted recipe with you! 2 1/2 cups flour. 2 tsp baking powder.

Icing on the Cake. Tuesday, February 12, 2013. Apple carrot muffins: cinnamon, spice, and everything nice. Occasionally, I am forgetful. For instance, a few weeks ago, I saw a bunch of beautiful locally grown carrots in my supermarket, and I snatched them up, conveniently un-remembering that I was picking up my community supported agriculture order (the super fabulous Winter Harvest CSA. Later that evening. And that I had a giant bunch of carrots in my CSA order. Oops. 1 cup white whole wheat flour.
