Black Forest Chocolate Cookies

September 14, 2013 by jodiebakes

Another school year has begun in the Austin household and with it comes the question…what do I pack in Nicholas and Alex’s lunches?? For the first four days of the school year they had snickerdoodles and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. But as their mom, I can tell that they are getting a little sick of the old stand by cookies. Time to try something new. Lucky for me there are still a couple of cookie recipes in BAKED New […]

Oatmeal Raisin

September 3, 2013 by jodiebakes

I was going to a friend’s house the other day for a meeting and I was bringing along my two older boys. I decided that I should also pack some snacks and cookies because we were going to be there during lunch time. As I was frantically trying to find something that I could bring that all the boys would like I discovered that I didn’t have any home made cookies in the freezer. I did find in the deep […]

Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Chip

June 9, 2013 by jodiebakes

Peanut Butter Cookies – with milk chocolate chips, is what I have decided to bake next. You can find this recipe in the cook book, BAKED New Frontiers in Baking on page 140. I think that cookies are one of my favorite foods to eat. Who doesn’t like to eat a warm, gooey, fresh from the oven cookie every now and again?? When our oldest son Nicholas was in elementary school we decided to stop buying store bought cookies. We […]

Monster Cookies

May 14, 2013 by jodiebakes

I have chosen my first cook book to bake through and blog about. Here it is….BAKED New Frontiers In Baking by Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito. These two men opened a bakery in Brooklyn, New York in January 2005 and released this cook book in 2008. I first noticed this cookbook a year or so ago, when surfing the internet for brownie recipes. I found the BAKED Brownie recipe and had to purchase the book. When I finally received it, […]

Peanut Butter Cookies

April 11, 2013 by jodiebakes

I will begin by saying that I love peanut butter cookies. Seriously. Well, anything with peanut butter in it, but especially cookies. My mom likes to say that I am obsessed with peanut butter. I am ok with that. I found a delicious peanut butter cookie while my husband and I were on vacation in Chicago. We were at Magnolia Bakery on State Street and they had them on display on the counter in a glass jar. My infatuation with […]

Traditional Snickerdoodles

October 8, 2012 by jodiebakes

These Snickerdoodle cookies are delicious. They are a simple sugar cookie, soft and chewy, with enough cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on top to give them an interesting crunch. They are dusted twice with cinnamon and sugar, before baking and immediately after baking. I have tried rolling the cookie dough in the cinnamon and sugar mixture but I think that the cookie gets better coverage if it is just sprinkled twice. I also like to make these simple cookies quite large […]

Betty’s Ginger Crinkle Cookies

October 5, 2012 by jodiebakes

When I think of these cookies I am instantly transported back to my childhood during Christmastime. When I was young my family used to get together on Christmas Eve to have dinner and to have “Santa” (all of my aunts, uncles, adult cousins and grandparents) exchange gifts for all of us children. It was very secretive, they would go outside while we played to make the exchange. We had no idea that this all took place, we just woke […]
