Here is a cookie from my childhood that Mom always had in the cookie jar. Peanut butter cookies were an easy favorite, and we just loved helping her make them they were super easy.

4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

If you love coconut, this little cake is a dream come true. Both creamy and soft with a little bit of coconut chew, this starts with a thin layer of fluffy coconut cake (that’s honestly delicious all on its own). A thick layer of decadent coconut custard dresses it up further, finished with a thick cream-based glaze that provides a glossy surface and drips beautifully down the sides of each cake. Sweetened coconut is the perfect finisher and an opportunity to get creative. Leave the coconut as-is for a classic all-white effect; toast it for more color and flavor. Or give a nod to the classic grocery store coconut snack cake by mixing a small amount of gel food coloring into your coconut to tint it a bright color.

Coconut Dream Snack Cake

This lemon snack cake has it all—in one sweet and sour slice! The foundation is a moist, super-soft lemon cake. (The flavor gets a boost by rubbing the lemon zest into the sugar before mixing into the batter, as the granules help to extract those glorious natural oils from the zest.) A just-sweet-enough cream cheese frosting uses a small amount of heavy cream to add thickness and stability while maintaining a dreamy texture. Finally, each cake is doused in a simple lemon glaze for a last zing of juicy flavor.

Lemon Fluff Snack Cake

This is more than just a cupcake; it’s one that most people would recognize anywhere. Moist chocolate cake is partially hollowed out, filled with plenty of fluffy vanilla cream, and dunked in a gloriously glossy chocolate glaze. Here’s how to match the original magic. This recipe will work...

Chocolate Cream Snack Cakes

Cooking With Maryann

Made famous in 2000 by former First Lady Laura Bush, these cowboy cookies are an updated twist on a traditional oatmeal cookie, trading raisins for chocolate chips, pecans, and shredded coconut. (We've swapped out the shortening as well!) To take it a step further, you can also toast the coconut and pecans for enhanced nuttiness. Here's what you'll need for about 18 cookies:

Fall flavors your entire personality? Yep, so are we, which is why we’re living for all the pumpkin-spiced sweets and pecan-studded treats appearing on shelves already. Thankfully, Costco has also gotten the memo. No, it hasn’t released its famed, almost-four-pound pumpkin pie quite yet, but the warehouse store is helping us bridge the dessert gap between summer and fall with a sweet, cinnamony treat perfect for autumn snacking.

This New Bite-Sized Costco Bakery Treat Won’t ‘Last a Day’ in Your House

The weather might not be cooling down just yet, but fall is definitely in the air. Even if you firmly believe that each season should stay in its lane, it's hard not to get excited about the temperature dropping a few degrees, football returning in a few weeks, and all the delicious food that comes with the transition.

Happy first day of fall! Not really—we still have over a month to go, but when Starbucks drops its ever-iconic Pumpkin Spice Latte, you know it’s time to trade in your flip-flops and bathing suit for sweaters and jeans. OK, a wardrobe swap might be a little premature,...

Starbucks’ Fall Menu Has an All-New Drink, and I Tried It First

I’ll be honest: I’m not usually the kind of person who asks to see the dessert menu at the end of the meal. Don’t get me wrong, I love a sweet treat as much as the next person, but I’d rather fill up on my main course and enjoy a homemade cookie or bowl of ice cream later in the comfort of my home—once I’m in my stretchy sweatpants (à la Joey from “Friends” in his “Thanksgiving pants”).

The 2-Ingredient Dessert I Can’t Stop Making

For most of us, Cinamon Toast Crunch is a bowlful of nostalgia. The crunchy squares dusted with a bold cinnamon-sugar blend have been a staple in the cereal aisle for decades, making school mornings a little sweeter and late-night snacking all the more satisfying. But, as much as we "crave...

Nutrition bars make big claims. Some say they’re all-natural. Some say they’re high in protein. Some say they’re high in fiber or low in sugar or can replace a meal. As consumers, we’d love this to all be true. Rip open a packet, eat a bar,...

If You've Ever Purchased This Granola Bar, You May Be Eligible for $50 in a New Settlement

I started seriously caring about the tools in my kitchen when I moved into my first solo apartment. My 400-square-foot studio in San Francisco had a microscopic kitchen with almost no storage, so I needed to be extremely selective when buying anything that had to do with cooking. When it came to cutlery, I sought the advice of a friend who worked as a line cook, and he said to focus on the three main pieces every cook should own: a chef’s knife, a bread knife, and a paring knife.
