Dessert, Snack Recipes

Cayenne and chocolate make a nice combo in this cookie from Paula Tuchscherer-Jones of Milwaukee; they would provide an interesting complement when plated with more traditional cookies.

Very beautiful ice cream, definitly will make it again.

Truly the best ever old fashioned ginger snap cookies. Enjoy!

A Greek favorite that makes everyone think you are a master chef and is sooo easy to make!! I taught a Greek friend how to make apple pie and she taught me this fabulous recipe. The phyllo dough for this recipe is found in the freezer section of most grocery stores. Add a little lemon zest to the sugar sauce, if desired.

I Remember my Grandmother and Mother making these cookies. Somewhere along the line, I lost the recipe. I have tried to find a recipe with "that" taste I remember so well. Then I saw "this" one, and, for a moment, it brought back not only my childhood but also my mother and grandmother.

This granola is filling and loaded with energy filling ingredients. Great with tons of blueberry's and vanilla yogurt as pictured.

Usually I have a certain degree of self control when it comes to my buttery treats. With this lemon cake, however, I will happily consume an entire loaf in a sitting without thinking twice. Do I regret it? NO! Bake it and you will understand. Thank you, Ina.

Yum, fresh strawberries in fluffy muffins.

Quick bread made with canned pumpkin, dates and walnuts. Perfect for breakfast anytime during the fall season.

Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chunk Cookies recipe

Delicious, light and fluffy! These taste of Fall, and the crystallized ginger gives then a lovely little zing. Even people who don't like pumpkin love these cupcakes. These disappear as fast as I can set them out!

You don’t need an ice cream maker to make this, but you do need a food processor. I use a banana and a small amount of honey to sweeten the yogurt. (See the banana-only variation on this recipe below.) You can serve it like soft-serve ice cream, or let it freeze solid so that it’s more like regular frozen yogurt.

These are cute little turkeys made out of oreo cookies and candy pieces. They are even easy enough for young children to help make. Gobble! Gobble!
