My dad shared a very simple Cherry Crisp recipe that he tried over the weekend. He said it was so easy and good that the pan did not last long. He suggests trying with vanilla ice cream. I can't wait to make it either!
I'm going to try to post a “Recipe-A-Day” for the week due to holiday baking in my kitchen. I started with Pizzelles (an Italian waffle cookie) and the house is beginning to take on the aroma of a bakery! Today I made Chocolate Chip cookies– which I know in my house will not last until Christmas. However, to keep hands out of the holiday cookie stash, I need to make something to divert attention!
