Weekly Mix: Oatmeal Cookies

Friday, March 29, 2013

I adore oatmeal cookies. Their chewiness and heartiness appeals to me in a big way. You won't see me turn down most any cookie, but oatmeal cookies just might be my favorite. My love of oatmeal cookies is sometimes hindered by the presence of raisins. I'm not a fan. Not even a little bit. But, there are many ways to enjoy oatmeal cookies without the raisins. These are a few of my favorites.

Recently, I've been on a bit of an organizing streak. I generally consider myself organized, but there are new levels of obsession around here. I think I owe some of that to living in New York.

Recently, I was thrilled to receive a copy of Pure Vanilla by Shauna Sever. You may know Shauna from her blog, Piece of Cake, or from her first book, Marshmallow Madness. This book is dedicated to all things vanilla. Despite the connotation that word has taken on over the years, vanilla is anything but boring. I immediately found several recipes I wanted to try, but I kept coming back to these cookies.

As much as I adore fall, there's a little part of me that's sad to see summer fruit season pass. If you find yourself missing all those berries, too, then you can always take comfort in the joy that is dried fruit.

One of the best things about fall baking is apples. From breads to cobblers to pies to just about anything else you can come up with, I am there with a fork and ready for my serving.
