Well, if we’re being honest, eating chocolate always makes me feel pretty good…but these are jam-packed with great antioxidants and they taste really, really good. These chocolates have a little tartness, plenty of sweet, and a chewy [...]

Aren’t these cookies the cutest? I love thumbprint cookies of all kinds and have very fond memories of my grandma making them every Christmas.

Are you a cocoa nib fan? I was recently introduced to them compliments of Scharffen Berger. So far I’ve only used them in sweet treats, but I can’t wait to try them in some savory dishes. They lend not only terrific flavor but also a fun crunch to the outside of these cookies. If you [...]
