Buttery and tender, delicate yet festive. These perfect Linzer Cookies strike the right balance between the sweet but subtle almond-flavor and the tartness of the berry jam. A holiday favorite to enjoy year after year. C is for cookie... The cookies that make up these linzer cookie sandwiches are SOO good. Perfectly delicate and buttery....

No-Bake Energy Bites
They look like cookie dough, taste better than a granola bar, and are incredibly simple to make. What more could you ask for? Oh yeah, these No Bake Energy Bites are actually quite healthy too. Just don't tell my kids. As I get older, every year I enjoy the fresh start that a New Year...
Perfectly Soft Snickerdoodles
While I was growing up, I wasn’t exactly a fan of Snickerdoodles. I liked them, but they weren’t my first choice when it came to cookies. To me, they seemed like someone forgot to add the chocolate chips when they made them. The cookie part alone wasn’t amazing. It has been my mission lately to...
Ricotta Cookies
Happy Almost-Christmas! There are still a few days before the BIG day, so it's not too late to add these cookies to your plans. You've got to leave something out for Santa, right? These ricotta cookies are easy to make and decorate, and they make enough for a crowd! (60 cookies!) Before you roll your eyes...
Pecan Snowball Cookies
Yesterday we had our first thick blanket of snowfall. The first snowfall of the year is so gorgeous. It never gets old. It signals that it's time for flannel, hot chocolate, Christmas shopping, and all the cookies. Our little lady is almost 6 months old now, and she is so curious about everything. She loves...

Butter Pecan Cookies
Spring has finally arrived, friends. I can't even begin to express my utter glee after a sunny weekend spent up north at our cabin the last few days. Sunshine + Cabin + Awesome Cookies = Best weekend in a VERY long time. I ate way more of these cookies than I would care to admit,...
Meringues
Meringues are a sweet, melt-in-your-mouth treat. Impossibly light, airy, and oh so delicious. They're the fancy pants version of cotton candy, if you ask me. While living in Italy, I spent much of my time drooling at the windows of bakeries and pastry shops. There were always so many interesting things to try, and meringues...
Chewy Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal Cookies
Pure maple syrup and brown sugar are the reason these chewy oatmeal cookies are packed with flavor. Not a raisin in sight! I’ve been meaning to make an oatmeal cookie recipe for a while now. It needed to meet two requirements: 1. No raisins. 2. Flavorful. Mission accomplished. After many practices batches, I found that...
Bussola Buranello Cookies
Bussola Buranello Cookies are a traditional cookie from the island of Burano in Venice, Italy. Burano is widely recognized for its brightly colored houses and its hand-crafted lace. It doesn't take long to figure out that they've got quite a good thing going with their Bussola cookies also. There seem to be a few different...
