I hope you’re not sick of seeing cookie recipes here because I’ve been on a mad baking spree lately. ‘Tis the season. 🙂 Are you a fan of eggnog? I love the stuff. I usually have only a glass or two of eggnog over the holiday season because I feel guilty having it. It’s not exactly health food, but hey, it’s the holidays and calories don’t count, right? 😉 On a random side note, if you’re looking for a last minute stocking stuffer, I absolutely recommend the Oxo Good Grips Medium Cookie Scoop. I have the small cookie scoop, too, but …

Chocolate Mousse
Hello gorgeous dessert. I have made this chocolate mousse so many times over the past few years and it came out delicious every time. I shared this recipe with you a couple of years ago. At that time I fancied them up with a graham cracker cookie crust and homemade eggnog whipped cream. The other night I was supposed to have three girlfriends over for dinner but two of them cancelled last minute because it snowed. One of them was supposed to bring the dessert. I had about two hours to figure out what to serve to the one who braved …
Peppermint Chip Chocolate Cookies
I love peppermint candies, chocolates, and assorted treats. There is something festive and comforting about eating peppermint around Christmas time. Who else loves this stuff? I think it’s one of those things that you either love or hate. Do you remember the candy cane chocolate sticks that I mentioned last week?

Anyway, since I have cookie baking on the brain, I decided to take one of my favorite chocolate cookie recipes and added white chocolate peppermint …
Dark Chocolate Tart with Biscoff Cookie Crust
Guys, I’m so obsessed with this tart and I know that you will be too! I only make a cake or pie when I know that I have a crowd to serve it to. My husband and I would happily devour it ourselves, but our waistlines would not like that.  So when the holiday hosting season kicks in, I’m excited to try some new desserts. My friends are chocolate lovers, hard core chocolate all the way. In fact, one of them even said that she wouldn’t mind chocolate for dinner. No wonder she’s one of my best friends. 😉 I instantly fell …
10 Favorite Holiday Cookie Recipes
Christmas is in full swing in our house. I’ve been watching holiday movies since October 27 (because that’s when the Hallmark Channel starts their Countdown to Christmas) and listening to Christmas music whenever I can. I started decorating the house a couple of weeks ago and now I’m just adding a few finishing touches. I’ve been to the Michael’s store more times in the past two weeks than I have all year. I do seem to be falling behind in my cookie baking though. Usually by this time I have at least a couple of batches of cookies baked and …
