Catch-up! January 1, 2008
I’ve been really busy/sick lately, but managed to come up with a few recipes in the past week or so. Here’s to catching up with the blog!
Peanut Kiss Cookies
Classic! I use a kiss mold I found at a thrift store in a hershey kiss making kit. The rest of the equipment was useless, but the mold is wonderful!
Chewy Candy Cane Chocolate Chip Cookies
A chewy cookie with bits of smashed candy cane and chocolate chips scattered throughout.
Caramel Coconut Chocolate Chip Bars
I might need to come up with a new name for these. They are very similar to those chocolate chip granola bars, except more flavorful and a bit softer. So good!

English Toffee Squares
These are veganized from an old family recipe!
English Toffee Squares
Makes 25 squares
1 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1 cup chocolate chips
2/3 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or a mixture)
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Cream together the margarine and brown sugar with electric beaters. Add the vanilla.
Gradually sift in the flour and stir until incorporated.
Press dough into an 8×8-inch* nonstick (or lined with parchment) baking pan and bake for about 15 minutes until firm and golden. Don’t take them out too early or they won’t get crispy and toffee-like.
Remove from oven and uniformly sprinkle the chocolate chips in the pan. Return to the oven for about 30 seconds so the chocolate is melty and spreadable. Using a knife, spread the chocolate evenly over the cookie layer. Sprinkle with the nuts, then let cool (the fridge or freezer helps with this if you’re in a hurry) so the chocolate firms up. Cut into 25 squares and transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
*This recipe can be halved and baked in a 8×4-inch loaf pan.
