Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies May 8, 2012

We think these cookies are the best of both worlds-a cross between banana bread and a chocolate chip cookie.  These delicious treats have just the right amount of real banana and chocolate chips. You think you can eat just one but it’s not possible!!

These will appear on our menu as another scrumptious sweet.

Sweet treats to you,

Raspberry Lemon Marmalade April 16, 2012

We have a lemon tree and are always looking for new and refreshing ways to use lemons.  There are pies, tarts, bars, and of course, fresh lemonade.  We were recently inspired by the apricot-orange marmalade we used in our Chocolate Dipped Shortbread cookie.  Why not a raspberry-lemon marmalade?  Lemon peel, pulp, juice and sweet raspberries make a delicately balanced marmalade.  It’s delicous on vanilla yogurt, toast/bagels, and cheesecake.  Next, we’ll try it in our Chocolate Dipped Shortbread cookie!

Sweet treats to you,

S’more Pie anyone? March 26, 2012

We  think anyone would agree that the best part of camping is the S’more. Why not make a pie?  We have been testing and trying different combinations and have finally settled on the finalist.  Meet Katiepie’s S’more pie.  
Graham cracker crust, chocolate ganache, homemade marshmallow, chocolate silk filling and more homemade marshmallow-in that order. We love marshmallow-especially homemade, not too sweet but creamy and decadent.  You think you only want one bite, but then you want S’more!

This is a yummy addition to our menu.

Sweet treats to you!

Shortbread, Orange and Chocolate February 29, 2012

These cookies have some of our favorite flavors.  The best orange-apricot marmalade between two light buttery shortbread cookies dipped in dark chocolate!

This recipe is not our invention but comes from a fabulous bakers cookbook, “Sarabeth’s Bakery, From My Hands to Yours”, Rizzoli, New York.  This book is full of incredible recipes, ideas, and just good information for any baker. We were lucky enough to find her jam at a local store and it is incredible, (good to eat with a spoon).  You could also substitute raspberry jam and create another yummy taste sensation.

Sweet treats to you,

Katiepies

Colorful, Easy, and Delicious! January 30, 2012

I had originally made this Pizza Cookie when I was a freshman in high school in my cooking class and was recently reminded of it while watching my new favorite cooking show, The Pioneer Woman. So, I was inspired to create it again! It’s really simple, just start out with a store-bought sugar cookie dough (or feel free to make your own)  roll it out onto a pizza stone, bake it, allow it to cool completely. In the mean time mix together a jar of marshmallow fluff and a package of cream cheese (softened) this will be used as the base on the cookie. Last but not least, it’s time to add the fruit, you can put whatever suits your taste. I used some of my favorites, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and kiwis. I just love how pretty this looks in the end. Perfect snack for kids and parties! Enjoy! 

 

This cookie makes you want to grab a cold glass of milk… January 22, 2012

Fresh out of the oven! Yumm….

These are butterscotch oatmeal cookies, crispy on the outside and warm and chewy on the inside. The classic butterscotch flavor makes you want to grab a cold glass of milk! Next, I’m thinking about adding some dark chocolate chips to balance out the sweetness of the butterscotch… wouldn’t that be good!  Look for these on our menu soon!

Sweet treats to you,

Katiepies
