Hodge Podge Cookies

Adapted from a few different “Magic Cookie” recipes and our own preferences.

Be imaginative with these. Replace crushed cookies and pretzels with graham crackers, Ritz or Rice Crispies. Candy can be replaced with favorite candy pieces, dried fruit or nuts. A half cup oats can replace the coconut flakes. Add a little of your favorite jam. Have fun!

“Pirate” Peanut Butter Cookies for “Talk Like a Pirate Day”

The Christie company out of Canada sells boxes of Pirate Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies which this is a copycat recipe for. Not sure why they chose the name “Pirate”, but the recipe caught my eye as we were looking for a new way to celebrate “Talk like a Pirate Day” this year. This is a combination of a few recipes and added chocolate chips.

The oatmeal cookies are good plain or filled.

Panic Butter Almond Cookies (GF, DF)

Adrian and two friends came home for Christmas break. They really wanted to cook, but needed to keep the recipe gluten free and dairy free. Over spring break, they perfected this recipe.

Dan’s Cookies

This recipe from a friend from Patmos. These are good, but missing the extra special something that Dan puts in or maybe the camp atmosphere.

These cookies are a little saltier, so reduce salt if needed. Do NOT use salted butter.

Tongass Forest Cookies

I was reading a book about Alaska that mentioned these cookies. This is a combination of a few different recipes I found and us changing it a little.

If using sweetened coconut, reduce sugar!

Peanut Butter Bars

A simple recipe we found that is great for anyone learning how to cook or a quick treat. These are an easy version of buckeyes or peanut butter cups.
