These coconut-chocolate chip cookies are truly scrumptious! I came up with this recipe one day, just trying to find a way to use the bag of coconut flakes sitting in the cupboard. It's a cross between family recipes for cookies and my imagination. I hope you enjoy eating them as much as we did.

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

This gingerbread Bundt cake is spicy, molasses-y, and oh-so-tasty. Sweet and warmly aromatic, gingerbread cake is often humble comfort food, but baked in a decorative Bundt pan and dusted with powdered sugar, it's elegant enough for any holiday table.
Pound Cake with Coconut Oil
Extra-virgin coconut oil is the key to the velvety, smooth texture of this cake. It's moist but with a fine crumb, and every bit as rich as a pound cake should be. Don't expect a coconut taste, it gently disappears into the background.
