Coconut Chip Cookies

By Mike Lesiuk | Published: February 18, 2010
These are adapted from a basic chocolate chip cookie recipe in The Colossal Cookie Cookbook. I was basically going for something kind of like my Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Coconut Cookie Mix Cookies without the oatmeal. I still like my cookie mix cookies better, I suppose because I’m a big fan of oatmeal, but these were [...]

Banana Bread with Walnuts and Chocolate Chips

By Mike Lesiuk | Published: December 31, 2009
I still haven’t discovered anything worth putting on a good banana bread. Butter, peanut butter, Nutella–all of these fail to improve upon that which is perfect. Although I have found that Banana Bread is a good bread for French Toast, even if it is a quick bread without all that fancy yeast. I’ve seen others [...]

Here’s the original recipe from Recipe Zaar, which is apparently taken from the Toronto Star, and they apparently got it from… Barbara Bush.

The title of this post is the hardest thing about making these cookies. The recipe is easy because there is very little measuring. I basically played with the measurements of the ingredients, and added coconut and more chocolate chips. I increased the butter a bit too, to help with the added volume. The original recipe on [...]

Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies

By Mike Lesiuk | Published: November 26, 2009
I like cookies soft, and most Peanut Butter Cookies do not fulfill this criteria. Too much peanut butter seems to mess up the consistency… yet the actual taste of peanut butter is so good. These cookies are my solution. The taste of peanut butter is not overpowering; there are only three tablespoons of it in [...]

Giant Chocolate Chip Cookies

By Mike Lesiuk | Published: November 8, 2009
This cookie is great because it is chocolate chip and it is huge. I would compare it in size to a hockey puck. I got the recipe from here at vanilla sugar, but I took out the nuts, added an ounce of chocolate, and also ground some of the chocolate before adding it to the [...]
