So these cookies don’t actually look like much, but they do *taste* delicious. The other day, I found this Salted Caramel Crunch stuff at Michael’s Craft Store. Basically, it is hard caramel candy crushed up. I threw some onto and on top of my regular chocolate brownie cookies and the caramel crunch melted, and then hardened up again to make these cookies that are almost like candy. Quite sweet, very unique. You might need some milk with these!

Dessert for Christmas Day dinner. I thought that instead of a lemon curd tart, I would make a cranberry curd and it turned out lovely. Not too tart (no pun intended), and the candied cranberries are a super textural change. While this looks impressive, it’s actually really easy to make so give it a go!
Good morning. Just the CSPS Girl jumping in here with a little coffee cake recipe, in case you are looking for a quick baked-good that you can make the day before. Can be served at room temperature or warmed a bit, for breakfast or for afternoon tea, this Cranberry Orange Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel is delicious. Don’t have fresh berries? Frozen will do just great in this recipe (keep the berries frozen when you put into the batter) and you can even swap out the cranberries for blueberries or raspberries. Enjoy!
My mom often asks me to make a “German” apple pie. Well, as the expression goes, that ain’t as easy as apple pie! Just like “American” apple pie has about a million variations, so does any other regional variation. What I think my mom means is this custard pie, which is one variation. It’s lovely. Not too sweet, creamy and lush. I used pink lady apples, which hold their shape and stay crisp throughout baking. Quite lovely.
Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian Friends! And on this occasion of Canadian Thanksgiving, I decided to make something decidedly Canadian: Butter Tarts! Turns out, they are crazy easy to make. I happen to have little tart pans, but you can also make them in a muffin pan. Light, flaky, crazy buttery (go figure, eh?) and delicious. I can see where these could become part of the regular snack rotation around here!
