This recipe is fast and easy! 4 ingredients... gotta love that! The cookies are between soft and crunchy. Both my kids loved them - a miracle! Great with a cold glass of milk. I think next time I'll add mini-chocolate chips to the mix! -- posted by Jennibear

Blackmoons

September 4th, 2008
My mom was a newlywed in the 1950s when she found this recipe. It's been my favorite dessert as long as I can remember. Since I've never seen the exact recipe anywhere else, I have copies stashed all over the place so I never lose it. I usually increase all the filling ingredients by half to have more of it. I've never counted the number of blackmoons this makes so I'm just guessing. -- posted by Twig #2

Chocolate-Peanut Butter Milkshake (Aka Peanutty Freeze)

September 4th, 2008
My husband and I, while we were still dating, used to meet at our local Red Robin after work for our midweek dates. His favorite drink during the sumemr was the Peanutty Freeze. It's basically just a chocolate and peanut butter milkshake. My husband was really disappointed when Red Robin changed their menu many years ago, eliminating the Peanutty Freeze altogether. My husband has missed this milkshake ever since. So I went on a search for the recipe so he would be able to have his favorite milkshake now and then at home. After much begging, I eventually came upon this recipe for the Red Robin Peanutty Freeze (chocolate peanut butter milkshake). -- posted by NorthwestGal

Buttercream Bon Bons

September 4th, 2008
I can't remember exactly when or where I got this recipe. But they have been part of my annual Christmas baking for many, many years now. I really love these for many reasons. First, they're very tasty. Also, they are simple to make as candy goes. But it's also quite a versatile recipe. I've replaced the standard vanilla extract with other flavors to come up with different flavored bon bons. If you want, you can even add finely chopped nuts. The possiblities are endless. Cooking time is actually the minimum necessary chilling time. -- posted by NorthwestGal
