Peanut Butter & Oreo Stuffed Brownie Cupcakes
I don’t even know what to say about this one except that this is what happens when I ask my brother what he wants for his birthday dessert. First, he says he has to think about it, and then I get a random text at 3pm one day that says “I saw a peanut butter Oreo brownie thing on the internet. Make it happen.”

Nutella Crescent Cookies
Hold the freaking phone. Nutella? Crescent rolls? Easy-peasy cookies in no-time? I’m so in. I’m not sure if you remember my post from last week, the Easy Cherry Turnovers? I told you that I stockpiled crescent rolls at the grocery store over the holiday to fulfill all of my Pinterest Crescent Roll obsessions. Seven recipes later, I finally used my last can of crescent rolls tonight. I have this whole processed-food guilt thing happening, but after tasting these I’m kind of OK with that.

Snowball Cupcakes
We have had some FANTASTIC weather around here for the first part of December – 70 degree temperature-sunshiny-beautiful weather, and I love it. The girls are still playing outside, we were able to decorate the outside of our house for Christmas without getting frostbite, and I’ve yet to really break out my winter coat. In December. Unreal.

Almond Snowball Cookies
I’m back! It’s been a long couple of weeks, starting with my daughter’s 7th birthday party, then Thanksgiving, then a week of refreshing the look here at Lemon Sugar. Throw in a couple of cases of bronchitis and let’s just say I haven’t had much time to spend in the kitchen.

Apple Pie Cookies
Seriously. What is not to love here? I had some leftover pie crust from my {Spinach & Gruyere Quiche} and lots of apples in my fruit bowl, so these happened. I am so, so glad that these happened. They happened at the end of a yucky, stressful day and made the world all sunshine-y and apple pie-y again. Perfect.

Peppermint Bark Cookies
I know, I know, it’s too early for Holiday cookies, right? Of course, I’m not one of those who starts listening to Christmas music on Halloween, so it definitely seems early to me. But, I had an awesome reason for dusting off my holiday cookie “must-make” list – I am participating in a bake along with some amazing bloggers. Skip to my Lou, A Southern Fairytale and According to Kelly are hosting the event, and if you’re already making plans for the holidays, these ladies…

Peanut Butter Monster Cookies
Pssst. I have a secret to tell you. You have to pinky-promise that you won’t tell anyone. Promise? I don’t really like Halloween. I actually kind of dislike it. It’s my least favorite holiday. Don’t get me wrong; I love fall, I love Thanksgiving, I love leaves, scarecrows, dried corn stalks, pumpkins, hay bales…but that’s where I draw the line. I don’t love costumes, costume parties, normal food disguised as disgusting food…(have you seen the spaghetti-hot dog worm thing on Pinterest? Gross.) I’m not…

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies & A Party!
I made these cute little cookies for a friend of mine who was hosting a Stella & Dot Jewelry Party last week. She wanted some cute treats in the Stella & Dot colors, which are green and turquoise. Now, if you follow my {Facebook Page}, you’ve been listening to me complain about my broken stand mixer – it broke while making treats for this party. It was a bad day. I nearly cried. And I’m not kidding. I had to stop and re-think everything I…

Cookies for Kids’ Cancer & A Giveaway!
For me, there is little worse than being sick over the holidays – especially baking holidays like Thanksgiving. I started feeling like I was coming down with something the day before Thanksgiving, and by the weekend I was completely down and out with Bronchitis. Needless to say, I didn’t do nearly the amount of baking I wanted to over the holiday – and I certainly didn’t eat as much as I wanted to – although I suppose maybe that’s a good thing. Now that I’m feeling…

S’mores Whoopie Pies
This, I realize, is not the prettiest dessert I’ve ever made. It’s kind of frumpy, even. But – oh my heavens, let me tell you – these are the best whoopie pies I’ve ever made. Ever. The cake was amazing. They were rich, soft, and had a deep dark chocolate flavor. The cream cheese buttercream was great on its own, but the addition of graham cracker crumbs took it up a notch. Pretty? No. But I didn’t even care because they were out of this world…

Pudding Cookies
I honestly don’t know why I can’t leave well enough alone. I already have a great chocolate chip cookie recipe (click here) and my Mom makes magnificent chocolate Chip cookies. So why on earth do I continue to search for different recipes? I think it’s a sickness. These particular cookies caught my eye on Pinterest a while back. The idea of pudding in cookies was just too much – how could I pass up such a magical idea? I couldn’t. Well – I tried. For…
