Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

Classic peanut butter cookies. Crumbly in their own texture with a bit of chewiness to it. These came out almost as good as the real thing, only problem was - they're a tad crunchier. If you notice in the recipe, I only have 15 balls but in the macros I have that it makes 18 total. That's because I ate some of the batter since it couldn't fit onto the baking sheet. Using a meat hammer on cookies seems pretty weird, but for the pattern on the cookies I used the spiked side of the hammer. It ...

A long time ago, I used to eat steel cut oat pancakes. I used to adore them, the chunky consistency, the full body taste, and the chewy texture.

I was requested to make this recipe, in order to find a better way around cauliflower tots. When you make them in the oven, they're not that great - a little bit crispy on the top and then pure mush throughout. I figured...if people are making faux mac and cheese in the oven from roasting cauliflower, why can't I do it fried? When I made these, I wasn't planning to eat them. I had just eaten dinner and was stuffed to the brim. You know what? They looked so good after I finished them that ...

The New Year's coming around and I always love making spice cakes at this time a year. Winter is here and there's nothing better than a nice warm spice cake after a great meal. These light, fluffy, and moist cakes will bring a delightful warmth to your taste buds only to be cooled off by a zest and quick pinch of lemon with the cream cheese. A decadent treat for any occasion! Optional: Add 1 Tbsp. rum to each cupcake after the come out of the oven. Drizzle it over the cakes and let it soak ...
