My Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie. It was Sunday night and I was searching for a cookie recipe on allrecipes and saw that almost 3,000 people loved these so I had to make them. I have been on a cookie kick lately much to my husband’s demise who is trying to lean up. He has amazing self control but he even succumbed to these. They kind of remind me of Paradise Bakery cookies except for they are BIG. The secret is the melted butter which gives them that chewy texture.

These are definitely going to be regulars for me.

I eat it for breakfast probably five days a week. It’s a very healthy fuel to get your motor running for the day, plus it can be very tasty if it’s made well. Whenever I find myself using something almost every day, I begin to wonder if I can’t reduce the cost of it somehow. This led me down the path of making my own instant oatmeal packets. Could I make them as well as (or even better than) the instant Quaker Oats packets for a cheaper price?

The answer is … sort of. Here’s the plan. The Basic Recipe All you really need to make your own basic oatmeal packets at home are instant (ready to eat in one minute) oatmeal, salt, and sealable baggies to store them in – you might also want sugar or another sweetener if you wish to pre-sweeten the oatmeal. The procedure is really easy. These will result in basic oatmeal packets very similar to the “regular” oatmeal packets sold by Quaker Oats. Flavoring It Up Of course, I like to flavor it up. Storing the packets is easy, too. Jamaican Banana Fritters - ThatsSoYummy.com. There’s a thing in my house that when you have ripe ol bananas either you make banana bread or banana fritters. These delicious tasty treats can be eaten morning, noon, or night, as a snack or as dessert. These fritters are so easy to make and will satisfy any craving you may have.

So if you have a few of these bananas lying around your hose… don’t toss them, put them to GREAT use! Enjoy! Peel and mash the ripe bananas. Beat egg, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Next, blend egg mixture with mashed bananas. Make sure it is all incorporated. Then sift flour and baking powder into the banana/egg mixture. Mix it all together. If the batter seems to be too thick add a little milk… I added about 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of milk.

Add oil to a frying pan and place on medium high heat. Drop spoonfuls of the banana fritter batter into the hot oiled frying pan. Flip when you see the edges starting to get brown and golden. Lastly, combine cinnamon and sugar together to create your cinnamon sugar. Ingredients. Cakespy: Behemoth Crumb Cake. Jessie Oleson (aka Cakespy) drops by every Monday to share a delicious dessert recipe. —The Mgmt. [Original artwork and photographs: Jessie Oleson] When it comes to crumb, I have a theory: if some is good, more is better. This theory was proven when I discovered something called the Colossal Crumb Cake at New Jersey's Ocean Grove Bake Shoppe. Could it be possible to recreate this magic at home? Turns out, halving the cake recipe wasn't necessary—using the full recipe worked just fine, as the weight of the crumb crushed it into a sliver of buttery submission.

Behemoth Crumb Cake About the author: Jessie Oleson is a Seattle-based writer, illustrator, gallery owner, and cake anthropologist who runs Cakespy, an award-winning dessert website. Pasta | Macheesmo - Part 2. Coffee Cream Bars. Layers of delicious. Ok. So I cheated on cookie week. These aren’t technically cookies. But they are dessert that you eat with your hands and they also happen to be really good.

A Vegetarian take on Moussaka. Occasionally I take catering jobs for my friends family's special occasions. Normally I don't take pictures of these events, but this most recent one, I snuck the camera in because some of the dishes I was making were really unique. I was asked to cook a Greek feast for 20 people, from apps to dessert! In the past, other people have brought some dishes, but this time I had to do everything.

One request was that there would be plenty of vegetarian options. I cooked this vegetarian take on moussaka using bulgur wheat instead of ground beef as the center layer. I also put a creamy mashed potato layer on top instead of the standard bechamel. Cooking the middle bulgur layer. Eggplant is the bottom layer. Some feta on top of the bulgur. Creamy mash potatoes on top. I also made some piroski which is like a greek mini calzone that has a sweeter almost pretzel like dough. I rolled out the dough and used my favorite cookie cutter to make the rounds. Sealed with a fork. Perfect 2 bite snacks. Cilantro and Coriander Seed Naan. So, you tell me you love Naan.
