Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Shortbread Cookies

Rich chocolatey-chocolate chip shortbread cookies won’t last long in the cookie jar.  Flakey yet dense enough to dunk.

Vanilla Crescents

If you like shortbread than you’ll love these. Simple and vanilla… nothing complicated here. My kids love them and they are super easy to make.

Dark Chocolate Fondue

Sure dark chocolate fondue rocks your taste buds! …but it is also good for your heart, your brain, helps control blood sugar, full of antioxidants, contains Theobromine (hardens tooth enamel), and is high in Potassium, Copper, Magnesium and Iron.  Most importantly, it puts a smile on everyone’s face!

French Toast Bites

Cut bread into 1″ thick slices. Trim crusts; cut bread into 1″ cubes. In a bowl, beat eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Add 2 cups bread cubes and mix to saturate. Lightly butter a 10-12″ nonstick frying pan. Place pan over medium-high heat. Lift bread cubes from mixture, shaking off excess liquid. Add cubes to hot pan and cook (adjust heat if necessary), turning as needed, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Keep warm. Repeat to soak and cook remaining cubes. Discard any remaining egg mixture. Pair along with sliced strawberries if desired.

Crumb Cake
