These are Almond Butter Cinnamon Chip Mini Cookies. A cookie will easily fit in the palm of my hand (like literally the palm part, not touching my fingers). They are wheat free / gluten free, butter free and despite taking all that fun stuff out, taste really yummy. Full of cinnamon and almond. They can also be made with mini chocolate or mini white chocolate chips.

It’s Valentine’s Day and while I do think that it is a commercial “holiday”, it is a good excuse to bake something so I went for this super-raspberry, super-red, super-delicious Raspberry Curd Tart. It’s really delicious and actually quite easy to make. It can be done all in one day, or you can make the filling up to 3 days in advance and the crust a day in advance, in case you don’t want to be pressed for time.
Today is the 10th Anniversary of this here website. It was 10 years ago a few weeks ago, that I finally decided that I should put some of my recipes and photos online and Ben was nice enough to help me set up the initial iteration of the site. Ten years later, over 1500 recipes, I am still going strong. Who knew that I could keep a hobby going with such gusto!
I think Pears are woefully underrated. Apple Pies, peach cobbler, but less often do you find pears in the dessert spectrum. Well, the other day, I came across some Caramel Cardamom Honey Spread and thought it matched well with pears, so I decided to make some of my usual crumble bars. Success! These are great and I will definitely make them again.
As you folks are well aware, I sometimes have this tendency to put “unusual” flavor combinations together. Today is no exception, though I don’t think that this combination is all that odd. I give you: Pistachio and Wild Cherry Thumbprint Cookies. Ground pistachios in the dough and sprinkled on top, fantastic wild cheery jam (literally the best jam that I have ever tasted!) in the “thumbprints”. Great combo, in my opinion. If you can’t find cherry jam, plum or apricots would also be good substitutes.
