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!

Megan’s Fudge Brownie Mix

While we have made extra batches of these for sharing or to have on hand for a quick dessert, we usually skip the jar and just make a batch of these fudgy brownies.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

A soft, cake like cookie. This is a very sweet cookie, so reduce sugar if desired. While mini chocolate chips are preferred, I think these are best with a mix of dark chocolate and milk chocolate chips.

Andrea’s Cupcakes with Buttercream Frosting

These are a nice, soft cupcake. Many who taste them say they are the “best” cupcakes they have ever had. She has also had a few people who do not like cupcakes compliment them and eat more than one.

Pistachio, Cranberry, White Chocolate Biscotti

Andrea decided we needed some biscotti for our tea. Instead of using plain white chocolate, she caramelized some. She found many different recipes for caramelizing white chocolate online. It made the biscotti extra good, but the cookie was a little sweeter than we liked. Next time we make this, we plan to reduce the sugar some.
