The USDA released its new food pyramid the other day (which is actually a plate now instead of a pyramid), and I am sorely disappointed to report that cinnamon rolls did not appear anywhere on that plate. I think by now most of us know what should be on our dinner plate in terms of healthy, well-rounded nutrient-laden meals, but it is my considered opinion that our breakfast plate should include cinnamon rolls now and then. And not just any cinnamon roll, mind you, but how ‘bout a homemade cinnamon roll hybrid that is a cross between a cinnamon roll and cinnamon toast, is super easy to make and gosh darn delicious. In honor of their ancestry, I call these little gems cinnamon toast rolls, and here’s all you need to make them…

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles | RecipeGirl.com - StumbleUpon

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles I’ve never liked chocolate chip cookies. Go ahead and throw tomatoes at me if you’d like, but I don’t like ‘em. They’re just a plain old cookie, after all, with a few studs of chocolate chips in them. They’re nothing special to me, unless you get some cookie dough-action before it meets its fate in the oven. http://www.recipegirl.com/2011/03/30/chocolate-chip-cookie-dough-truffles/
Shrimp creole has always been one of my favorite suppers since I was a teenager. Back in the days of super teased hair that didn’t move in the breeze and rompers in virtually every possible design and color imaginable. Those things were comfortable. Mama would make her shrimp creole for us on a regular basis. It was always spicy and flavorful and absolutely delicious. I made it for my family the other night with rave reviews. http://addapinch.com/cooking/2011/06/13/shrimp-creole-recipe/

Martha Stewarts Cookies and Cream Cheesecakes Recipe | La Mia Vita Dolce - StumbleUpon

Posted on Wednesday, 21st July 2010 by Grace Massa Langlois I have yet to meet a person who doesn’t like Oreo cookies or Cream Cheesecake Cupcakes . Who could resist cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies ? Not Me! Especially the double-stuffed Oreo cookie , it’s one of the best cookies for dunking into a cold glass of milk. I went out yesterday to do my weekly shop, came home, and before I was able to bring in the first grocery bag Matt was hunting for the cookies and cream ice cream . http://gracessweetlife.com/2010/07/oreo-cookies-and-cream-cheesecakes/

Baked Perfection: Cakeballs

http://www.bakedperfection.com/search/label/Cakeballs Take a closer look. At first glance these may look like your typical cake pop made famous by Bakerella , but once you take your first bite you will realize these are not cake pops. Here take another look. Yep, that is chocolate chip cookie dough in that pop (don't worry, there are no raw eggs). I was talking with Elyse, of the wonderful Elyse's Confectionery Creations, and she and I were wondering what we can make to be the next big thing.

Now, I have a chocolate chip cookie recipe that I swear by. I love it, I think it is incredible, and I haven’t changed my mind about that.

not martha - experiments in Rainbow Cakes

This past St. Patrick’s Day I made a Leprechaun Trap Cake , shown above, which revealed a nice rainbow shape inside each slice. I created the rainbow by pouring colored cake batter into an angel food cake pan one color on top of the other and it came out surprisingly well. (More details on the amounts of colored batter I used are in the original post .)

Kids can be frustratingly picky eaters. They can also have highly entertaining quirks. My niece used to ask for pepperoni pizza and then proceed to discard all of the pepperoni.
