Double Peanut Butter Easter Blossoms
I'm a huge fan of peanut butter and chocolate. My husband brings home Reese's peanut butter cups, every year for me on our anniversary, he gets me! But I've never been a big fan of peanut butter cookies. I live in the camp where cookies should always be soft and more often than not, peanut butter cookies just aren't. So, I set out on a mission to find a recipe for soft and chewy cookies that I could use in these Double Peanut Butter Easter Blossoms.

Rutabaga and Apple Mash with Crumb Topping
This was my Grandma’s mainstay recipe at Christmas dinner. It didn’t matter what else was being served, it was a guarantee that this Rutabaga and Apple Mash with Crumb Topping would show up on the table, courtesy of my grandma. Because, it is my Grandmother’s cornerstone holiday side dish, it feels appropriate to share it now, just in time for Easter. Have you ever had rutabaga? It’s a root vegetable that’s basically a cross between a cabbage and a turnip. The original recipe is called turnips and apples, but after a little bit of research, I’m pretty sure we were using rutabaga…

Hopscotch Cookies
These Hopscotch Cookies remind me of spring, I can remember the sun beaming through the windows, as my mom would scoop off a spoonful of the gooey peanut mixture onto wax paper to harden. She'd usually make these at Christmas time, but they always make me think Easter. They remind me of bird's nests and thus spring and thus Easter. Makes sense, right? So, I'm starting a new tradition with my boys and these will be our staple spring cookies.
