I have been baking a fair amount, but nothing new, so I haven’t had any trials to post. Well, I decided to try some double chocolate cookies! I probably could have spent more time deciding which recipe to go with, but I picked one from […]

I recently broke down and finally ordered Butter Baked Goods: Nostalgic Recipes from a Little Neighborhood Bakery. I’ve been looking at it for years, and I just had to. And it does not disappoint. Firstly, it is a beautiful book. The pictures are great, the font […]

There is a full bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips, half a cup of milk chocolate chips, and an entire “take home” bag of M&Ms in this- go big or go home, right??
