Tuesdays with Dorie: Fudgy Mocha Bars
It’s been a long time since I’ve baked with you guys, but I made time for this one! These are yummy, rich and so chocolatey. I’m taking a small plate of them to my mom’s house later today, and another small plate to my husband’s cousin’s house tomorrow.
Tuesdays with Dorie: Date-Nut Pinwheels
I’ve missed you guys! The holidays, as always, got super busy and I’ve been busy helping my sister with her wedding planning. But I’m back with Date-Nut Pinwheels for February. These were right up my alley. I love pinwheel and spiral cookies, icebox style cookies, and I loved the flavor profiles of the dough and…
Tuesdays with Dorie: Greek Honey Dainties
I made the Greek Honey Dainties from page 277 of Dorie’s Cookies for this week’s Tuesdays with Dorie. I come from a family that is heavily Italian- my mother is 100% Sicilian, and I’m 50%. I have first cousins who are 50% Greek, but their mother is my aunt- so also Italian, and my aunt…
Tuesdays with Dorie REWIND: Cabin Fever Caramel Banana Bars

I was skeptical, as I’m not a fan of…
Tuesdays with Dorie: Maple Star Anise Cookies
So, I’m not a star anise fan and don’t keep it in the house. I skipped the star anise and upped the cinnamon and ginger in these a bit. They were so good! My husband thought they were fancy snickerdoodles- hahahaha. Perfect fall spice cookie that matches the weather around here perfectly! Everyone here is…
Tuesdays with Dorie: Spiced Pumpkin Jammers
These were a winner! My husband was very skeptical when I said I was putting pumpkin filling in a cookie with roasted seeds on top. These actually turned into Spiced Butternut Squash Jammers because I came home from our CSA on Sunday morning with two butternut squash. The filling is with Butternut squash in place…
Tuesdays with Dorie: Devils Food Wafflets with Chocolate Sauce
I’ve been neglecting my blog and Tuesdays with Dorie in recent months. We got married in April, have had a busy summer, and now we’re both back in school (plus us both working full time). It’s busy. But my husband’s company has been complaining about the lack of cookies and Tuesdays with Dorie is my…
