This variation on the usual chocolate chip cookie, serve these sweet treats with dried cherries, pecans and chocolate chips! Courtesy of Whole Foods Marekt. http://www.grouprecipes.com/105631/cherry-chocolate-chip-cookies.html I'm keeping these in mind for Holiday gift giving, boxed together with the chocolate coconut bonbons (bonbon jovies). From the "Tillamook Cheese Cookbook". http://www.grouprecipes.com/102475/cheese-truffles.html Usually make these around Christmas for gifts and snacks. My grandmother always made these stove top but I've adapted them to microwave, since I usually make mega batches back to back and it's much quicker. Of course with any candy the humidity will affect the texture so try to make on a clear dry day! http://www.grouprecipes.com/91493/microwave-sugar-spiced-pecans.html The serving size is the number of 6-inch cheese logs this recipe makes..they will keep very well in the refrigerator for 3 weeks...and they make nice gifts at the holidays. or they are nice to have made up for holiday drop in guests.. the recipe is from a 11 year old Woman's day magazine... http://www.grouprecipes.com/67240/tex-mex-cheese-logs.html This is a recipe for a sweet sourdough. I have posted a few recipes that include this recipe as one of the ingredients http://www.grouprecipes.com/63742/herman-sourdough-starter.html These taste just like the real thing, but you get the pleasure of making them yourself. I wrap each snicker square in wax paper squares and twist the ends to secure. This makes them great for gift giving. You can cut these as big as you want, but I suggest cutting smaller squares because they are pretty rich. http://www.grouprecipes.com/7918/snicker-squares.html
