By far, my family's favorite category. While we don't have dessert every night, we have enjoyed a collection of wonderful treats over the years. My goal with collecting treat recipes, along with all my other recipes, is not to overwhelm or create a large selection, but to use just our favorites.
Brownies are a favorite baked treat of ours that they deserve their own category. From life-changing brownies to a warm chocolate treat, brownies disappear quickly around our house.
Cakes and icings once were a favorite in our house. As the kids have grown and tastes have changed, I have learned to decorate lots of different varieties of cake, including cheesecakes.
Candies and Christmas go together in our house. Most of these recipes I use around the Holidays, but they are favorites year-round. I love traditional recipes from Grandma Bea and Grandma Alice Hicken. We are always on the look out for new ways variety to add to our treat plate.
I grew up with frozen pies for Thanksgiving day. As I have learned and explored more in the kitchen I have found some pretty yummy recipes that my family now enjoys. The prefrence in our house is cookie or graham cracker crusts.
