Orange-Scented Bomboloni with Pastry Cream and Chocolate Orange Dipping Sauce
Some restaurants are putting do-nuts and do-nut- holes on their dessert menu’s. We tried this one last night at our November cooking class. It not only tasted good it was a great vehicle to keep dinner conversation going as diners dipped the pastry filled morsels in the rich chocolate cream, in no hurry to conclude…
Peanut Butter Cookies
Another all time favorite. After school, in a lunch box, that ‘little something sweet’ after dinner. These are a standby that is sure to please any cookie lover.
Butter Horn Cookies
This is a Christmas cookie standard. It’s pastry like dough melts in your mouth, it’s powdered sugar coating announcing the great tastes that are to come. It also looks great on a plate with a variety of other holiday treats. You know the holiday’s have arrived when these confections are on your dessert plate.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
This was the most popular recipe in our house when the boys were in school. I would make a double batch almost every other day. It wasn’t just the McGowan boys’ favorite, it was the neighborhood favorite. More than once, a group of smiling faces would come to the door to see “if the boys…
Oatmeal Cookies
The oatmeal cookie rose to popularity in the early 1900’s. It has been one of my favorite’s ever since (he! he!) O.K. so I probably didn’t find out about them until some delicious day after 1941! I love the moist chewy flavor with an occasional sweet raisin surprise. If you are trying to justify eating…
Snickerdoodles
And old standby for sure. Great cookie for kids because they aren’t real messy.
Brownies
This bar cookie became popular in the roaring 20’s. You know it’s good to have lasted that long. It is still popular for picnics, lunch boxes, and of course there is always that decadent dessert, the brownie sundae. This particular recipe produces a wonderful moist, chewy, chocolate treat that will be one of your favorites too.
Cinnamon Rolls (aka Sticky Buns)
These are the best cinnamon rolls I have ever tasted. Yes, even better than my grandma Sutherland’s!!! They have the sugary glazed bottoms, melt in you mouth cinnamon centers, and light textured dough. The big secret to their success (and yours) is potato starch in the dough. It’s a good thing this recipe makes two…
Pizza Dough
This recipe needs to be made in a food processor. Once you see how easy and good it is , you’ll never order delivery again. You can make up a couple of batches of the dough, pre-cook them for about 5 minutes and put them in the freezer for instant pizza! A boon to mankind!!!!! Print Recipe…

Spring Rolls
These Spring rolls use a wrap that is made with tapioca flour. Besides the fact that it is the authentic way to serve them it qualifies them as gluten free. I’ve kept this recipe very simple. Once you get the technique down you can put just about anything in these rolls. Add a couple of…
