Molasses Marshmallow Sandwiches
It’s just not the holidays without gingerbread or molasses cookies. I include chewy molasses cookies sprinkled with course sugar in my holiday treat boxes every year, but I make them with a twist. I can’t take credit for the cookie …

Tipsy Nutella Balls
There is a Nutella craze in the U.S. right now. I learned to love the chocolate hazelnut spread while living in Europe, and was surprised when I returned to the states to see Nutella commercials and jars lining the shelves …

White Chocolate Cranberry Popcorn Balls
I love everything popcorn. Caramel corn, cheddar corn, kettle corn and especially popcorn balls. I’ve been making this recipe for quite a few years. It’s very easy. It’s basically the same technique you follow when making Rice Krispies treats, but …

Mini Pumpkin Eggnog Pies
It’s pumpkin pie season! I love how we’ve turned fruit seasons into dessert seasons. There’s nothing like fresh peach cobbler in July, apple pie in September and pumpkin pies in November and December. But pumpkins don’t get November and December …

Pennsylvania Dutch Apple Dumplings
Apples are here! Apples are here! It’s that time of year when bushels upon bushels of apples fill our farmer’s markets, and if we’re lucky, our kitchens. In Belgium, we had three apple trees in our backyard, and I was …

Double Espresso Brownies with Caramel Macchiato Mousse
This started off as an experiment, but holy macaroni Batman, I think this is the best dessert I’ve ever made. It’s eyes roll to the back of your head good. It’s I don’t smoke, but I need a cigarette good. …

Gluten-Free Shortbread Cookies
I’ve come to learn that a few of my friends are looking for gluten-free recipes. While I was making apple pie, one friend asked if I could make a gluten-free piecrust. I’d never baked with gluten-free flour before, so needless …

Apple Crumble Pie
There’s nothing more American than apple pie, so it’s fitting that the tasty dessert has played a role in my Army life. At Fort Riley, I was fortunate enough to participate in the annual Apple Day festival. It’s a fabulous …
