Valentine’s PB Blossom Cookies
Have I mentioned before how much I love peanut butter and chocolate together? So when I was deciding what desserts to make for Valentine’s Day I knew I had to include the combo. I mean peanut butter and chocolate are one of the great matches made in heaven…which means that including the combination in every major holiday baking is a must! When I was trying to decide which desserts to bake, I knew red velvet would also have to be on my list. Red velvet is just chocolate dyed red. That’s when I landed on red velvet cookies with peanut butter chocolate tops…and the Valentine’s PB Blossom was born. Did…

Candy Bar Monster Cookies
I love a loaded cookie, filled with various ingredients such as nuts, candy, nut butters. Monster cookies are the perfect treat for multiple flavors. I’ve tried and attempted several monster cookie recipes, and while each recipe was definitely full of flavor and variety, every single one was crumbly and dry. There isn’t anything worse than a dry cookie. So I’ve been trying to perfect the monster cookie for a few years. Thankfully I think I have mastered the recipe. With this recipe I also decided not only should I load it with flavors, but it also needed to be a monster size. I used an ice cream scoop to drop…

Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies
Any time peanut butter and chocolate are thrown together mouths become VERY happy, my mouth included. I grew up calling these cookies peanut butter blossom cookies. To which I never knew why, and whenever I chat with someone about these cookies their face forms a confused look and don’t know what I am talking about. Does anyone else called these peanut butter blossom cookies? While I make these cookies throughout the year, for some reason I grew up with them on the holiday baking lineup. Which is a tradition I have continued with my children. The basics of the peanut butter kiss cookies are peanut butter cookie batter and Hershey…

Reese’s Pieces PB Cookies
Peanut butter is easily in my top 5 favorite flavors, could even possibly make the top 3. Our family goes through a large jar of peanut butter in just a few weeks. Several weeks ago…during quarantine…my tribe and I decided we needed to acquire some Crumbl cookies, sit in lawn chairs (6ft apart), and catch up with life. At the time Crumbl had their giant Reese’s Pieces Peanut Butter Cookies. One bite and I knew I would have to recreate the cookie so I could have the amazing yumminess all of the time. I make these as a giant batch and use an ice cream scoop to make sure the…

Buckeyes
Several years ago, my kid brother Mikey, made Buckeyes for the first time. When I tasted them, my mouth totally had a party! I’ve always been a sucker for peanut butter and chocolate together. Peanut butter blossom cookies are some of my favorites. These tasty chocolate peanut butter truffles, dare I say, are even better than Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. Apparently Buckeyes originated in Ohio. They are named for the resemblance to the nuts on the Buckeye tree. Have you made Buckeyes before? What are some of your family’s holiday baking traditions? Do you generally bake during the Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hannukah season? Or are you an every holiday baker? I…
