This is the last cookie recipe of the holiday season and the last post of 2022. I always have to include some kind of chocolate cookie in the holiday cookie box. I’m a chocoholic so of course I’d say that. Most everyone loves a good chocolate treat too, especially after a heavy holiday meal. This year I’m making chocolate chocolate chip cookies. I first made these cookies back in 2015. They were phenomenal. The rating I gave them confirmed my memory. Remember when I did that? I used to rate recipes with a 5 rating chef hat system. I stopped …

Soft and Thick Snickerdoodles
Another day, another batch of cookies. Lately, I definitely feel like I’m making more cookies than “regular” food. Tis’ the season. 😉 Pretty soon it will be all about salads and healthy foods. Anyway, I had to add a batch of snickerdoodles to my list because they are classic cookies. These cookies are soft and thick. I mean, just look at the photos for proof. They are sweet and full of warm spices and honestly perfect 365 days of the year. Back in 2018 I made these snickerdoodles. Those snickerdoodles are thin and chewy but equally awesome. Now you have …
Christmas 2022
Welcome to our home for the holidays! The kitchen is a busy room in our home, especially this time of the year with all of the cookie baking. I’m glad that we added a Christmas tree last year to this room to make it more festive. I bought a size that I think would work in several rooms but I loved it so much in the kitchen that I set it up in the same spot this year. I think my style this year is pretty similar to least year. I focused on neutrals and nature. I bought this table …
Sugar Kiss Cookies
These cookies get me into the Christmas mood. I always like to include a sugar cookie of some sort in my holiday cookie boxes. Usually I make a roll out sugar cookie or sugar cookie sandwich (filled with jam or chocolate hazelnut spread). This year I decided to make a sugar drop cookie instead. I made these sugar cookies two years ago and they were a huge hit so I thought I’d make them again but add a little chocolate twist to them. Isn’t the sugar coating so fun and festive?! No wonder why these have gotten me into the …
Holiday Dining Room 2022
It’s the holiday season and my husband and I are in full swing with hosting holiday dinners with family and friends. As in the previous few years, I adorned the chairs with faux wreaths. I used to spend so much time hanging them just right but last year my husband used removable clear clips (similar ones here). They are a game changer and we used them again this year. I always move things around until I get them just right. However, I had a vision for this area and I got it right the first time. I wanted my collection …
