Cookies, fudges, and other stackable, snackable sweets.
- Chocolate cookies (for breakfast)
-
We woke up this morning and then we stayed in bed for a few hours. And when we finally did get up, we desperately needed breakfast. And sugar. And chocolate. What we needed were chocolate cookies for breakfast. Made quickly with a minimum of fuss. - Chocolate half-hour cookies
- Half-hour cookies can be made with cocoa instead of spices for a rich, easy-to-make snack.
- Easy biscotti
- A very easy Italian biscotti with toasted almonds and orange peel, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
- Fearless fudge
- This fudge is heavy in sugars and chocolate, using maple sugar and raw brown sugar to provide a very rich flavor.
- Half hour cookies
- From start to finish, you can be eating the first batch of these crunchy, sweet cookies in just under half an hour, using ingredients that, if you bake at all, you almost certainly already have on hand.
- Half-hour lemon cookies
- Half-hour cookies can be made with lemon juice instead of vanilla.
- Lemon Tea Bread from O’Donnell Angel Food Cookbook
-
This cookbook from the O’Donnell Angel Flight of Louisiana Tech University is a real find, with authentic seventies recipes straight out of your mother’s pot lucks. Have some lemon tea bread from the Air Force southern command! - Peanut butter and lemon fudge
- I have no idea how long this will keep, as it never lasts longer than a day. Peanut butter and lemon makes great candy.
- Peanut butter, walnut, and chocolate chip cookies
- I thought I’d try mixing rice flour in with this recipe, and then I had a sweet tooth so I threw in everything else as well.
- Sesame Krispies
-
Rice krispie candy lends itself very well to adding other flavors. - Tahini shortbread
- This shortbread adds tahini--sesame butter--to the dough for a lightly exotic nutty flavor, and chocolate on top to hide the fact that you bought the tahini in a health-food store.
- Walnut-maple cookies
- Ground sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, and maple syrup make these cookies very rich and sweet.
