I love to bake. Cookies, breads, brownies, scones, really anything. I find it a great stress reliever and a way I can ensure my family has some yummy stuff to eat that is not full of chemicals, preservatives and additives. Plus, my baking always includes that extra special ingredient…love.
Our family’s favorite cookies: Chocolate Crunch Cookies
These are our favorite cookies. I found the recipe in a Liquor Store magazine of all places, and no matter who I give them to or where I take them, they meet with rave reviews. I also love love love my KitchenAid stand mixer and I wonder what I ever did without it.
