To me, you can't get better than a warm, jelly filled Bismark doughnut. I love them. It's a really good thing there is not a doughnut shop on my normal driving route because raspberry Bismarks are one of the foods I cannot resist. Really. Anybody wants to capture me and torture me for information -… Continue reading Bismark Doughnut Muffins

Game Night Treats
I'm so excited for the return of game night with my church small group. We have a great time together with food, laughter, games and just enjoying each others company. I went to some easy comfort food treats tonight. Nothing fancy or new, just good hang out snacks. Since I've posted them both before, I'm… Continue reading Game Night Treats
Spiced Wassail Muffins
I decided this morning that it had been too long since I made a yummy snack for my munchkins. I found a recipe for Spiced Raisin Muffins and decided that with a few adjustments they'd be perfect! I decided to name my creation Spiced Wassail Muffins because as I was baking them I realized they… Continue reading Spiced Wassail Muffins
Lemon Cheesecake
I distinctly remember my mom making this cheesecake when I was a kid. Iit was gorgeous, and I remember thinking that lemon desserts were better than chocolate. I still prefer lemony deliciousness over just about anything else. This recipe is from the May 1989 issue of Bon Appétit magazine (which you can purchase online for… Continue reading Lemon Cheesecake
Chocolate Truffle Cookies
Hello death-by-chocolate. This may replace Double Chocolate Brownie Cookies in my recipe box as my go-to chocoholic cookie. These are essentially the same idea: chocolate cookies with chocolate chips in them. But these are made with butter, chocolate and more chocolate. The previous ones, while delicious, were packed with shortening. I think butter is just better.… Continue reading Chocolate Truffle Cookies
Bakerlady Scones
I've posted this recipe before, but I have a lot of new readers who may have missed it. This is my absolute most requested treat. I have never had a better scone. Seriously. You may think "a scone is just a scone", but you are wrong. You only think that because you've never had mine.… Continue reading Bakerlady Scones
Peanut Butter Blossom
This is a classic cookie. I'm sure you all have a version of this treat floating around in your recipe box somewhere. What makes mine special is a couple of ingredients and an unlikely baking method. First, I use dark brown sugar which gives a richer flavor to the cookie. Also, there's real peanuts in… Continue reading Peanut Butter Blossom
Lime Tea Cookies
I frequently make lemon cookies of varying kinds, but for today's family tea I thought I'd mix it up with these light buttery cookies that are just bursting with a different fresh citrus flavor. Lime makes me think of spring, and since it's snowing in the Seattle area today, I thought a dose of spring… Continue reading Lime Tea Cookies
Quick Cobbler
First of all. I'm back! I was pounded with the cold/flu season and was basically non-functioning for about 6 weeks. Last week I emerged from my bed to find that the world had changed in my absence. None of my kid's clothes fit, I couldn't get shoes on their feet because they too had grown… Continue reading Quick Cobbler
Perfect Dinner Rolls
I love love love my new bread machine. It's so easy to just throw all the ingredients in, turn it on and have beautiful dough. The recipe for these rolls is pretty time-consuming - only because you have to allow it to rise three times. You don't really have to do anything with the dough… Continue reading Perfect Dinner Rolls
