Macadamia Nut and White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

These Macadamia Nut and White Chocolate Chunk Cookies are the perfect combination of salty and sweet. Imagine 2 cups of macadamia nuts and white chocolate chunks barely held together with just a couple of cups of cookie dough.

Oh. Em. Gee.

How to Make Basic Pepperoni Pizza with Overnight Dough Using the Two Stone Method

I love pepperoni pizza. I pretty much consider it a food group. I could eat if for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Sourdough English Muffins on the Griddle

I love English muffins. They are so good toasted and buttered or spread with jam.

Some of my favorite ways to eat English muffins are as part of a breakfast sandwich, as a base for a quick mini pizza, and for an open faced tuna melt. The tuna melt especially brings back memories of my sister and me hanging out together with our new babies and spending the day together (and maybe watching Days of Our Lives or All My Children while our babies were napping). Creating those tuna melts was about as "fancy" as we could get while juggling babies on our hips. The tuna melts were especially good with potato chips and dill pickles....

Detroit Style "Red Top" Pizza

Detroit Red Top Pizza is an amazing thing, especially if you love burnt cheese as much as I do. This pizza is encrusted with cheese, purposely pressed against the sides of a butter coated pan to achieve that crusty goodness. Ridiculous. 

Rondo's | A Dutch Treat

Rondo's are little Dutch treats that are kind of a cross between a pie and a cookie.... and maybe even cake. They are so amazingly tasty. The flavor pretty much blew me away.

The crust part is a cross between a pie crust and shortbread, and totally flakey. It is filled with a lemony almond paste that is mixed with an egg. The rondos are ridiculously tasty. Once I cut into one of them for "quality control," I could not stop eating it.

Chocolate Chip Muffins

These chocolate chip muffins are so easy to make, and the resulting crumb is so moist and tender. I know that sounds cliche, but I'm serious! This may be my new favorite muffin, with or without the chocolate chips.

Ham and Asparagus Quiche

This ham and asparagus quiche is perfect for brunch or lunch. It's also a very elegant way to have breakfast for dinner. It's both hearty and nutritious, and leftovers are wonderful reheated for breakfast. Serve it with a green salad, sliced fruit or a bowl of berries, and a glass of crisp sparkling wine, and you have a wonderful meal.
