Dolce Crisps
My Mother and I made these the other night. Admittedly, I wasn’t in the best mood, but I digress...One look at the chocolate chip bag Mom pulled out and I was smiling again! Whenever mom cooks, she never follows the directions. That kind of rubbed off on me too. So, what started out as a simple cookie recipe soon turned into ‘Dolce Crisps!’
Strawberry Tart
I am a big strawberry fan and was absolutely thrilled to find they were on sale at the food market yesterday. Though I absolutely LOVE strawberries, my experience with baking them has not always been so wonderful, so I opted for a more simple dessert- Strawberry Tart.
Berry Good!
I noticed this recipe called for ‘almonds.’ I personally only like nuts in banana bread and occasionally in certain cookies. So, I changed the ‘almonds’ to ‘coconut.’ (YUM!) I also noticed something very important in this recipe- it called for ‘cherry pie filling.’ So I worked some baker’s magic and thought- “What if I switched the cherry pie filling with some homemade strawberry pie filling?” What a brilliant idea, if I may say so myself. And that’s exactly what I did. So, let me tell you exactly what I did for when you’re in the mood for Coconut sprinkled Strawberry Cheese Bars.

Swirled Minicakes w/ Dark Chocolate Icing
I prepared these minicakes for St. Patty's Day. They were turned out wonderful! Of course you can perpare these minicakes for any occasion. Just change the color of the sugar sprinkles! Do enjoy!
