My dad has an intense sweet tooth, just like me. One afternoon when I was around 10 years old, Dad got a hankering and he enlisted me to help him make Toll House chocolate chip cookies. That was the first time he and I had ever baked together. Since then, whenever I make chocolate chip cookies, including the ones from this recipe, I think of him and that special afternoon we spent together in the kitchen. I developed this recipe over the years, after experimenting with a few classics and having them come out flat every time. I wanted something that was chunky, beautiful, and also delicious. In the end, one big change I made was to cut back on the butter. I do truly believe that butter makes everything better and no one is more surprised than I am about how amazing these taste even though they’re made with less of the good stuff than most traditional chocolate chip cookies.

I had attempted the semi-sweet rendition of these bars once before, but, as I quickly found out, it wasn’t quite as easy as substituting dark chocolate for the white chocolate and Nutella for the peanut butter. I’m assuming it is the softer nature of the white chocolate to begin with, but the chocolate version crumbled and shattered in a brittle mess. In the end it took a good bit of butter, some cream, and almost twice as much Nutella as peanut butter (you need more Nutella for the flavor to hold its own against the semi-sweet chocolate). Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups puffed rice cereal 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into cubes 1/4 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup nutella 12 ounces (2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips or chopped semisweet chocolate 2 cups mini marshmallows 1/2 cup mini or regular white chocolate chips Directions: Line an 8-by-8-inch square baking pan with lightly greased parchment paper.

Add the egg and egg white and beat gently into the flour to incorporate. The dough will begin to form. Add the tablespoon of water and begin to work the dough to allow the flour and xanthan gum to absorb the moisture. Cut the dough in 4 equal parts and press each section out with cling wrap.

These low carb, gluten-free, savory muffins are made with cauliflower and cheese. They are great as an appetizer, snack, side dish or a quick meal. Ingredients:  3 cups finely chopped raw cauliflower florets approximately 1/2 a head of cauliflower  2 large eggs  1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided  1/4 cup  almond flour  1/2 tsp baking powder  1/2 tsp dry Italian seasoning herb blend  1/4 tsp onion powder  1/4 tsp garlic powder Directions: Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a cupcake/muffin pan with cupcake liners. I prefer to use parchment cupcake liners as the muffins will not stick to them at all. Combine cauliflower, eggs, 1/2 cup cheese, almond flour, baking powder, Italian seasoning, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix with a large spoon or spatula until smooth. Using an ice cream scooper, scoop batter into muffin cups, about 2/3 full. You should be able to fill 11 liners. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheese over muffins. Bake for 20-25 minutes until muffins are completely cooked and
