Vegan Bananadoodle Cookies

March 9, 2018 Amanda Plott

Once upon a time I went to a place and tried a bananadoodle cookie, much against my will, and I liked it. No. Nope. No, no scratch that. I LOVED it. It was truly one of the best cookies that I had ever eaten. And that's saying a lot because I am a cookie fiend. I was completely surprised with how much I enjoyed the cookie. Mostly because out of all the cookies in the world, snickerdoodles are probably one of my least favorites.

I think I must find them bland or boring when compared to just about any cookie that's usually loaded up with extra naughty bits like chocolate chips.

The holiday season is fast approaching, which always means plenty of friends and family coming and going to visit. When this time of year rolls around, there are always two things that I like to have on hand and ready to go; a warm cup of coffee and something sweet to enjoy it with.

There isn't much that reminds me of the holidays and family fun other than a traditional and perfectly tasty sugar cookie. That's probably because my mom and I get together once a year to bake up a cookie storm in my kitchen. We usually each pick two kinds of cookies and bake the day away together. Sugar cookies are always my first choice!...

Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix & Cookie Spoons

December 14, 2016 Amanda Plott

My daughter and I were singing Rudolph all morning long! While eating breakfast, while driving to school. I'm a little scared and also excited that come Friday, I'll have her home for two and a half weeks of winter break! Now... ask me at the end of the two and a half weeks to see if I still feel the same about that.

The holidays are always a fun time, especially when you've got little ones running around with all of their excitement. There is something to be said about homemade gifts, and I've always said that. They mean the most to me and always have. I would much rather have something that I know someone spent the time, effort, and thought into... than anything else! To know that you were in someone's special thoughts is a gift in itself...

I hear jingle bells starting to ring off in the distance! I for one, am not going to be on Santa's naughty list this year though. This Skinny Sugar Cookie Cheesecake Dip is as nice as can be with just a handful of simple ingredients and the most amazing frosted sugar cookie taste you'll find in anything other than the real deal. Sprinkles included!

Yep! That's right, Santa. You can enjoy this tasty sweet treat and still be able to fit back up the chimney at the end of the night. *Wink, Wink.* This dip is perfect for setting the mood for the holidays, which for me are always full of warm and happy memories. I love how whimsical and fun while this dip is, while also being a light and a welcome addition to any table. Plus, no one will ever guess that it's been lightened up, because it just tastes that good!...

Skinny Edible Monster Cookie Dough

August 4, 2016 Amanda Plott

It's still really hot here in Texas right now. Seriously, it was 80 degrees upstairs in my house last night. ...And that was after the sun set. So, clearly I'm staying away from the oven as much as humanly possible for a few more weeks. In the mean time... I'm still craving things that generally require cooking or baking. Let's face it, life doesn't stop just because it's hot outside! Cookies are what's been on my brain lately.

If it's cookies I want, it's cookies I get.

Not just any old cookie though. I want something thick and rick and colorful. Enter this Skinny Edible Monster Cookie Dough! If this won't get you through the heat of the summer and curb your cookie cravings, nothing will...

Healthified No Bake Thumbprint Cookies

July 18, 2016 Amanda Plott

So, today I decided to be a bit lazy and go the no bake route. I mean... it's 100 degrees here in Texas and I sure don't want to turn my oven or stove on anymore than I need to. That being said, sometimes a girl just needs a sweet treat or a cookie to make it through the day! This is definitely the best of both worlds right here.

These no bake thumbprint cookies are so super easy to whip and I don't even need to heat my kitchen up at all to enjoy them! The best part is that they are basically as clean as cookies can come! Using oat and nut flours instead of wheat, also means they are gluten-free!...
