About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I'm in my element with baking- I'll tackle really any cookie/cake/muffin/bread recipe, and am trying to spread out and become comfortable with cooking, too.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Christmas cookies! And of course, eating about 1/4 of the batter before its baked.
My cooking triumphs
My chocolate cheesecake muffins :)
My cooking tragedies
Adding a tablespoon of salt to my gingersnaps instead of a teaspoon circa age twelve. They turned out pretty terrible.

Colleen's Potato Crescent Rolls
AMAZING!!!! Didn't change a single thing about the recipe, and they were easy to make and came out wonderfully! Baked for 12 minutes and they were wonderfully fluffy and delicious. One warning- this recipe yields A LOT of dinner rolls- might want to try freezing half the dough for later. Thanks for such a great recipe!

Best Ever Pie Crust
I have NO IDEA what people are talking about when they said this dough was sticky. When refrigerated for two hours and when you use flour on your work surface and flour the rolling pin, there is no need for wax paper, plastic wrap, etc. Its just fine! Only change I made was to use butter instead of shortening. This recipe was great when it was being baked with the pie filling (ie apple pie), however when it was baked on its own to serve as a crust for my chocolate creme pie, it was difficult to bake properly.
