Do Your Recipes Measure Up?

When a very positively reviewed cookie, cake, or other pastry recipe and gets an atypically bad appraisal, it can often be traced back to flour measuring technique, or lack there of. I did this video a few years ago to illustrate the point, and since we’re heading into holiday baking season, I thought it’d be a great time to review.

This isn’t to say that people don’t occasionally post recipes with ingredient errors [clears throat nervously], but if a cookie gets mostly rave reviews, and yet you thought it was a little dense, there’s a chance it could be this common culprit. Anyway, this clip shows you why weight is better, and also how to properly measure by volume. Enjoy!

Halloween Fun ~ Dracula?s Dentures

Halloween Fun ~ Dracula’s Dentures

by Pam on October 25, 2012

I recently made a fun and festive dinner for my kids in celebration of Halloween. I made Hot Dog Mummies^[1] for dinner alongside the Creepy Smiles^[2] and Carrot Fingers^[3] – needless to say, this meal was a huge hit with my kids. For dessert, I made these Dracula’s Dentures that I found on The Girl who Ate Everything^[4]. I think these cookies are best when made to order so the marshmallows and cookies don’t get stale. Both of my kids were delighted with the dessert and said they tasted AMAZING!

Make the chocolate chip cookies^[5] – see recipe here^[6].

Once the cookies have cooled, cut them in half. Spread a bit of red frosting on the bottom of both cookie halves. Place the mini marshmallows around the front of the bottom cookie.

Carefully place the top cookie half on top of the marshmallows. Carefully insert the almond slivers in between teeth for fangs. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Oatmeal Raisin Walnut Cookies

Don’t you love the smell of homemade oatmeal cookies baking in the oven!

Once a month I contribute a skinny dessert recipe to Dash Recipes^[1]. If you love a moist, chewy oatmeal cookie, you’ll just love these! Under 200 calories, and 5 points plus for 2 cookies. Please visit Dash Recipes for the complete Skinny Oatmeal Walnut Raisin Cookies Recipe^[2].

I usually use quick oats in my oatmeal cookies because I prefer the end result, but rolled oats will work just fine in any of these recipes.

For the chocolate lover, these Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies^[3] will hit the spot!

For the pumpkin obsessed! These chewy, Pumpkin Spiced Oatmeal Cookies^[4] made with quick oats, pumpkin, and chopped pecans will bring delight with every bite.

And my personal favorite, Banana Nut Oatmeal Cookies^[5] taste like banana nut bread, but in a cookie.

Enjoy!
