These no-bake peanut butter cookies were always served for school lunch. After marrying, I got the recipe from one of the cooks and have made it many times. This cookie is sometimes made with cocoa powder, but I like this recipe better; it doesn't use any.

Carol's Cinnamon Waffles
If you like those cinnamon waffles from the frozen food department of the grocery store, you'll love these! I developed this recipe because I don't care for syrup. Most waffles need the sweetness of syrup to make them special. These waffles are yummy, just as they are; no syrup necessary! Whipped cream and fruit are a great addition if you want to go all out, or just add butter and confectioners' sugar to the top. These may brown quicker than standard waffles because of the sugar in them, so test the first one and adjust the time. I have also added 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed; you can't taste a difference. Enjoy!
Gochujang Butter
This gochujang butter is spicy and savory, but even a little sweet. Korean gochujang makes a compound butter that is so good on steak, noodles, salmon, biscuits, rice, crostini—actually on just about anything that can use a kick of flavor.
Chinese Lion's Head Soup
This is my family's version of lion's head soup and for me it is the best type of comfort food! It is best served with white sticky rice, and wonderful enjoyed on a cold winter day.
