This recipe came from my co-worker Don. He brought these in on his birthday and they were fabulous. Don found the recipe on the Splendid Table site, a radio program by Minnesota Public Radio. He also had a couple changes from the original recipe:
“I made smaller cookies than the recipe defines, and these were baked [...]

We got this recipe from our neighbors (the Langs) after the birth of our third kiddo. They brought over a big casserole dish and it had excellent flavor. Absolutely something we would make again, or accept from our neighbors if they are so inclined to deliver over another pan. Hint, hint!

1/2 C. [...]
I found this recipe on the Simply Recipes website. The flavor was fantastic, however we over baked them a tad so some of the seeds had a little burnt flavor. The picture shows a browned pumpkin seed, I would recommend watching them closely, especially if your oven runs hot.

Olive oil
Preheat oven to [...]
I got this recipe from another online recipe blog Popular Cookie Recipes. The recipe is quite simple and the cookies are very tasty. Just the right amount of crispy and chewy. The recipe only makes about 24-30 cookies. So you may want to double it if you’re looking for more. Give it a try, [...]

Every recipe book, website or blog has to have the staple rice krispie treats recipe. I was surprised to learn this site did not have one, that is until now. A simple and delicious treat. I think I’ll go make (and eat) a pan right now.

Got this recipe from Carol Robson, a co-worker of mine. She brought these in one morning and they were gone in no time. Some of Carol’s comments about the recipe are below . . .

This here post is for all you folks who LOVE brownie edges. If you’re at all like me – you tend not to venture too far away from the edge of the brownie pan. In fact, you eat all around a pan of warm brownies, enjoying every morsel of chewy-edge bliss before leaving the comfort [...]

Betty, a co-worker of mine, brought this coffee cake into work one day when her church told her they had enough desserts for a funeral that day. Boy did they make a mistake, it was still warm when she brought it in. Don’t tell anybody at work, but I think I ate [...]
