​White Chocolate Pecan Oatmeal Cookies 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

“
Made these to give out for thanksgiving and for traveling on Amtrak. They are chewy, delish and love the nuts. I also added some cardamom just for more subtle spice flavor. They store well in tin cookie bins. Thank you for another great cookie recipe.

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

Hey friends❣️ If you’re looking for me this weekend I’ll be on the patio blending up frosty strawberry rhubarb margaritas ~ dangerously good with chips and salsa.

rhubarb crumble tart

Hey friends❣️ May cooking is kind of summer aspirational ~ the weather’s warming up, fruit’s coming into season, and we’re all easing into lighter, simpler meals. Rhubarb’s showing up, sheet cakes are back, and anything easy that works on the patio is fair game. These are the recipes you’ve been loving most lately ~ relaxed, seasonal, and ready for whatever May brings. How many of your favorites made the list?
