These cookies have the sweet, buttery taste for which sugar cookies are known and loved. They puff up while baking so it is best to use cookie cutters in simple shapes. Decorate your cookies with frosting and/or sprinkles.

These sugar cookies have more of a buttery shortbread flavor and texture than traditional sugar cookies. They are easy to make and hold their shape well when baking. Because these cookies don’t puff up much while baking, I recommend them if you are using an intricate cookie cutter.

My sister-in-law came up with this idea when she was experimenting with some leftover Easy Pizza Crust dough. It reminds me of the dessert pizza we would order at pizza parlors when I was little but it’s better because you can control how much sugar and butter you add.

S’more cookies are rich, gooey and easy to make. They are a fun twist on a classic campfire treat. Make the s’mores with the cookie of your choice. Once you try one, you’ll be asking for…s’more.

These peanut butter cookies are soft, chewy, rich and filled with a melt-in-your-mouth peanut butter flavor. The next time you make them, let your kids use their imagination and create an assortment of cookies.

Arroz con Leche, literally “rice with milk,” is a traditional Spanish dessert that is also popular all throughout Latin America. Variations of rice pudding can be found around the world and this is the Spanish take on it. I love the simplicity of this recipe – rice, milk, a cinnamon stick and sugar. It is easy to make as long as you have forty minutes to an hour to watch it and stir it frequently.

One of my favorite candies is Andes Chocolate Mints. With this recipe, you can leave the mint frosting white but I like to color it green so that it looks like Andes mints. (And the touch of green gets you out of being pinched on St. Paddy’s Day!)

It is so easy to make whipped cream and the result is far superior to the store-bought tub and spray can alternatives. The silky texture and sweet, rich flavor complement pies, hot cocoa, strawberry shortcake, and more! I use the following recipe as a base for my homemade whipped cream but I add other flavors and garnishes to complement different desserts.
