Oatmeal Toffee Chocolate Chunk cookies

These cookies may not look like much but as the saying goes, "looks can be deceiving!" Chocolate, toffee, and oatmeal combine to make a truly delectable cookie. I made these cookies when my sister Emmalee and her husband Jon, and my other sister Becky with her boyfriend Isaac came over. To say that they liked these cookies is an understatement. The plate of cookies was devoured in about 10 minutes. Okay, okay, so I had a few myself. What can I say? They were delicious!









Oatmeal Toffee Chocolate Chunk Cookies
modified from a random airline magazine - who would've thought?

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cup oatmeal1 cup toffee pieces
1 cup milk chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter and both sugars until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla until well blended. Combine soda with flour, and mix into the butter mixture. Sitr in the oatmeal, and then add the toffee pieces and chocolate chips. Batter will be thick. Drop onto a parchment lined baking sheet by heaping teaspoons full and bake 10-12 minutes. Makes 4 dozen.

*These cookies will spread out quite a bit so leave plenty of room between them! Also, it's not a bad idea to grease your spatula because these cookies are sticky and soft coming out of the oven. Not to worry, they'll firm up once they cool.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Glazed Lemon Loaf Cake

Ever since getting a slice of Lemon Cake from Starbucks a few years back I have been on a quest to find a good copycat recipe.  I've tried several and they were all fine, but this cake is officially the winner.  My search is over! I seriously could not imagine a more perfect lemon cake.   Lemon flavor shines throughout the cake, but the real punch of flavor comes from the delectable glaze. The cake itself is so moist yet fluffy and tender at the same time.  It's like a ray of sunshine on a cold winter's day! 

Pumpkin Spice Donuts

I love this time of year when the temperature drops and it's perfectly acceptable to make and eat all kinds of pumpkin things! I've been meaning to try my hand at cake donuts for sometime now and these pumpkin ones were calling my name.  Unlike yeast donuts that require a few rises and fry up nice and fluffy, these cake donuts come together pretty quickly (with a small chilling period) and are more dense and moist in texture. The outside gets all craggy and crispy which is perfect for collecting all the sugary glaze.  Such a delicious combo of textures and perfectly flavored with pumpkin and spices.  We loved these!! Note: I tried making a few of these in the air fryer as an experiment and was amazed at the difference in texture.  Not in a good way.  The air fryer ones were much tougher and not craggy and crispy.  So stick with frying these in oil and you won't be disappointed.
