Pecan Cornmeal Biscotti
One more cookie recipe for you and these are fantastic!!! I absolutely love sitting down with a hot cup of coffee and a good biscotti. I makes me think of two things… being in Italy and spending time with my Grandma. These are a little different then a typical biscotti, these are my Pecan Cornmeal Biscotti! I really love using cornmeal, it adds to the texture and gives you a slightly nutty flavor. Pecans, they are one of my favorite nuts to use in baking. They add great crunch here. …

Christmas Cream Cheese Cookies
Ok, I think these may have just made it onto my top 10 cookie loving list! My brother makes fun of me because I like a “cake-like” cookie but its true!
