Bella loved to…

Recipe: Buttery Nut Toffee
Buttery nut toffee – because it’s good. If you make this, get ready to share since it’s so good you’ll want to eat it all up yourself, which might not be the best thing. I made this recipe using white sugar and each time I can’t seem to get the butter to brown as much as I would like – so I tried it with brown sugar and it turned out perfect. The only down side, I didn’t catch any pictures. Trust me, though, brown…

Recipe: Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies – main reason, I had oatmeal that’s not gluten free that I wanted to use up non gf oatmeal, thus, this recipe. The downer part, I made them for the wrong group of people. Let me explain. Once a month I meet with a committee and there are about 15 of us – this time I asked if I could bring the snacks and that I wanted to make them. The whole reason was to try out this recipe and maybe…
