Weird but Delicious — Kix Cookies

by Anna on April 30, 2009 · 33 comments

kix-cookies

A few weeks ago, Fuzz went over to a friend’s house and ate dry Kix cereal for a snack. She liked Kix so much she asked me to buy a box. I did, and we’ve been munching on them all week. That they would eventually get baked into a cookie was inevitable. I’m not an [...]

pumpkin-scone

had some pumpkin to use up this afternoon and decided to make scones. This recipe is adapted from one that’s supposed to be a Starbuck’s clone and which originally called for glaze and frosting. But I left off the toppings, added butterscotch chips and pecans, then sprinkled the tops with some vanilla …

I couldn’t make the Frosted Flakes Chocolate Chip Cookies mentioned earlier, but thanks to this recipe, I’ve finished off a giant box of regular Corn Flakes. Now I can get on with my life. These were good – sweet, but good if you like macaroons. Corn Flakes Macaroons 4 large egg whites 1/4 teaspoon (1 [...]

Margarita Pie Update

by Anna on April 28, 2009 · 4 comments

Okay, so with 1/4 cup Triple Sec and 1/4 cup Tequila, the margarita pie is a little too boozy. I’m going to cut it down to about 2T. each.

Magic Blondies

Today’s recipe is adapted from Martha Stewart, and it had been on my “to try” list for ages. My concern was that these muffins/cookie things would be pretty, but not very tasty.  Luckily, I was wrong.  The cake part is very moist without being overly rich and there are enough add-ins to make it interesting. These are definitely going in [...]
