honeycrisp hasselback apples
Honeycrisp Hasselback apples. Need I say more? Hasselback potaotes were my favorite, but now it's Hasselback apples. We used Honeycrisp apples because we LOVE them. Granny Smith apples would be good too. We made individual ones in these cute Anchor Hocking mini pie dishes because everything is better when it's in its own dish, right? Super easy to make and not so much of a recipe as much as a ...

This year I went to the site completely open minded. I used a photo from Summer ...
Chocolate Crackle Cookies
Chocolate Crackle Cookies--I'm pretty sure we called them Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, but whatever you call them they are an old time favorite. I love to give a small plate of cookies to neighbors and these seem perfect this year. You know what makes them even more special? Giving them on a festive plate from Anthropologie. This recipe from Martha Stewart is so good. Just don't over bake! You ...
