Monster Breakfast Cookies
These are a perfect treat when on the go, or first thing in the morning before a run/walk, or in the middle of the night while nursing a hungry infant! Walnuts are a great add (try 1/2 cup raisins and 1/2 cup walnuts), but they do make the cookies a bite drier. You can use white flour or a mixture of white and whole-wheat.
Ultimate Black Forest Cake
Very delicious and easy to make. Garnish with chocolate curls made by using a cheese grater on semisweet chocolate.
Borscht-Braised Beef Short Ribs
I've never been a big fan of beets, but in certain things, like borscht, I love them. With that simple soup as an inspiration, I thought the flavors would work nicely with the rich, fatty short ribs, and they sure did.
