Bonnie Graber of Oak Creek sent this recipe for an old-fashioned kitchen sink cookie that would be good any time of the year.

A great party food favorite. Tastes just like normal sausage rolls - makes you wonder just how much actual meat they have in them :P. Even my 17 year old carnivor of a brother loves these.

Spiced pumpkin custard fills mini tart shells, then gets topped with a broiled pecan-sugar crust. These two-bite holiday tarts balance creamy filling with crunchy caramelized nut topping.

Famous Amos-style chocolate chip cookies with pecans, cocoa, and instant coffee for rich, complex flavor. Crispy bite-sized cookies made with biscuit mix for a tender crumb.

The best chewy chocolate chip cookie recipe ever. Nothing out of place, just a simple exceptionally delicious cookie that turns out utterly perfect every time.

These buttery shortbreads melt in your mouth. Honey lends the delicious sweetness to these shortbreads, and pecans add yummy nuttiness.

Copycat Cinnabon cinnamon rolls made with a pudding-enriched dough for an ultra-soft, gooey crumb, rolled with brown sugar and cinnamon and finished three ways: cream cheese frosting, caramel-pecan sticky buns, or classic.

A scrumptious sweet potato casserole that gets a unique and delicious taste from the chopped pecans it uses.

A definite summer salad. The honey glazed pecans, goat cheese and balsamic dressing really bring layers of flavors, and all the ingredients are a delicious combination. The dressing and honey pecans both can be made a day ahead.

My husband's baseball team prefers these cookies to chocolate chip..... if I make anything else, I have to have Alabama's too!

Super moist friendship cake starts with a 30-day brandied fruit starter, layering peaches, pineapple, and cherries, then bakes into a tender, fruit-and-nut loaf. The shareable holiday baking tradition.

This apple cake is so moist and tasty. It's a great dessert, but I can have it for my breakfast with a cup of coffee or tea, fantastic.

One of Mrs. Carter's favorite recipes was for a simple cheddar cheese mold. Served in a ring to be spread on crackers, the cheese appetizer was prepared for many of the Carter's family dinners and some of their official functions. One unusual ingredient was the strawberry preserves served in the centre of the ring.

Strawberry-pecan bread folds frozen strawberries and chopped pecans into a cinnamon-spiced quick bread batter for a tender, fragrant loaf. A pink-flecked, jammy take on the classic banana bread.

Mrs Fields apple cobbler cookies loaded with chopped Granny Smith apples, apple butter, raisins, and pecans, rolled in a cinnamon-oat crumb coating. Fall baking at its finest.

Love butterscotch, love pecans, and love the combination of these two together. That's why these squares have been my go-to treats. How can anyone say no to these delicious squares?! I do sometimes use half chocolate chips.
