Chocolate Chip Bar CookiesI got this recipe many years ago at my baby shower. Someone always asks for the recipe. Instead of chocolate chips, you can use butternut chips, peanut butter chips, chocolate covered peanuts or raisins, or plain raisins. Coconut and nuts may also be added.
Seven Layer Cookie BarsUsing this basic recipe, you have the freedom to use different layers of sweets to build this cookie bar.
Salted Caramel Butter BarsI love everything caramel. This one looked rich, just like a cookie bar should be.
Peach BarsI had a box of fresh peaches to use and didn't feel like canning or freezing them. Although they were delicious, we weren't going through them very quickly, so I found this fresh peach bar recipe to try out.
Lemon-Butter BarsI found this recipe amongst my Mom's old recipes. I just love anything made with lemon!
Chocolate Chip Banana BitesDo you have ripe bananas but low on butter? If so, sounds like our household! You can make this chocolate chip banana bite sized bars. This yields 1 - 10x15 inch cookie pan so depending how you cut the bars up, you'll easily get 24 plus pieces!
Purple Cookie BarsEverything gets purple in my kitchen after a good harvest of this sweet root crop called ube. Today, I'm putting a purple treat to my son's lunch box. So this is how I trick him with healthy foods he doesn't like. Turn them in to cookies and he would be proudly telling everyone in school "his mom's a kitchen magician".
Zesty Lime Cheesecake BarsI love the addition of lime juice and zest to these cheesecake bars because they bring some zing to the creaminess. The graham cracker crust has some added cinnamon to really give it a nice dimension. This is an excellent dessert for barbecues and picnics when you want something decadent like cheesecake, without the need of forks and plates. Enjoy!
Chocolate Chip Blondies DessertThis is a delicious dessert packed with nutrition. The main ingredient is chick peas along with other healthy things. This is child and adult approved, and an easy dessert to bring to school parties.
Chewy Banana BarsLiving in Kentucky the markets are flooded a few times a year with bananas. My husband seems to go crazy and buys up half the store when he goes shopping alone. I have bananas coming out my ears. There are only so many bananas that you can eat before you just can't eat another one. Furthermore, during the summer the bananas get ripe, so quickly, I have no idea what to do. I've made banana fudge, banana jam, banana cakes, banana bread, frozen bananas and banana cookies.
Tangerine Lime BarsThere are two reasons why I've made these scrumptious tangerine lime bars. First off, I love tangerine and lime flavours so much, I think they need to be stars of more foods. Secondly, my tangerine and lime trees really outdid my lemon tree this year, so when I went to pick fruit in my garden, this was the best idea for a sweet treat! This a very simplified recipe, so there is no egg separating or tempering necessary. The flavours aren't as tart as lemon bars, they're well rounded and velvety. I hope you give these a try. :)
Healthy Granola BarsVery easy and healthy granola bar for you and your family to enjoy. Perfect as a snack or to take on the go for breakfast. Change up the dried fruits or add in chocolate for variety.
Berry and Mango Breakfast BarsThese breakfast bars are very easy to make. They are perfect for on the go, as well as toddler/kid approved! Instead of making a full batch of a specific flavor, I used half berry jam and the other half mango to have a variety. You could also opt for fresh or frozen fruit to make your own filling, if you have the time.
Choco Peanut-Butter BarsI don't know what this recipe is actually called, but I think this would be perfect for you to share the sweetness of your love this Valentine's Day.
Soft Pumpkin Granola BarsI'm trying out so many recipes and using up the pumpkin I found on the curb, that I baked and pureed. This recipe is not sweet, but you can add more sweetener than called for. It is also versatile, and you can use ingredients you already have in your pantry.
Mango Lime BarsIt's mango season! I keep bumping into mango sales so I thought it's time to come up with something new. These Mango Lime Bars are a lot like Lemon Bars, but less gooey, more pillowy, and of course, more mango-y! The base is a butter shortbread that will melt in your mouth, but still hold up the custardy topping. You will love these. If you prefer super tart, go with two limes instead of one; the consistency will still hold up.
Chocolate Holiday Oat LoafSince I have about 6 hours between breakfast and lunch, a dietitian recommended that I have a Kind bar to tide me over. They are expensive and have a lot of calories and carbs. When I saw this recipe in the Penzey's catalog, I showed it to her, and she said it was good. It tastes great, and has 130 calories per slice instead of 200 per bar. The carbs are 19 grams compared to 22 or more per bar. They also cost a lot less than commercially prepared bars. If pumpkin is hard to find, you can substitute canned yams. Of course, this can be made for its original purpose, dessert!
Easy Gluten Free Gingerbread (Vegan)I was just playing around with ingredients for an upcoming holiday party I'm having. Half of the guests are vegan and a few are gluten free. I am pretty sure this recipe qualifies. The strange thing is, this tastes super buttery and naughty! My husband and I ate this entire batch in one night. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
Toffee SquaresRich with buttery English toffee flavor.
S'mores BarsI've been making this recipe for years and years. It's my go-to recipe for gatherings, PTA meetings, etc. I bring it when it's still warm and gooey. It's fun to watch people's eyes roll back when they taste these. They aren't difficult to make. Well worth any effort, though!
