The original used those bright unnaturally-red maraschino cherries of our youth and they were one of … Continue reading Chocolate Cherry Butter Balls

Even though I don't have any children, it is my understanding that mushed up banana is one of the first foods that you feed a child and that they love the subtly sweet flavor and mushy texture. Well, not this kid. I've been told that I spit them out as an infant. I refused to … Continue reading Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Bars
