Easy cookies

Chocolate and cherries flavor this luscious variation on the classic recipe for Five Layer Bars. I like these cookies best with a combination of maraschino and dried cherries. The maraschino cherries lend color; the dried cherries add a delightful tartness.

These bars are just Key lime pie in a different form. While you can bake them, summer calls for no bake cookies, and these stand up fine without baking.

To be on the safe side, use pasteurized eggs in the filling.

This rich, sweet, gooey bar cookie recipe from Hershey's has become a classic American favorite. We've also created a luscious variation, a Chocolate-Cherry Five-Layer Bars..

One of the favorite treats in New Orleans—and the rest of the Deep South—is pecan pralines, candies made with cream, butter, tons of sugar, and pecans. This easy cookie recipe pays tribute to that delightful candy and obeys the law that governs Southern desserts: If it doesn't make your teeth ache, it's not worth eating.

 

This dessert is great anytime of year, but it's especially suitable for Mardi Gras (February 24 this year).

A higher-than-normal amount of chocolate and eggs and a bit less sugar make these brownies fudgy, intensely chocolately, and not too sweet. This is our all-time favorite brownie recipe.

The most popular version of this recipe calls for crushed cornflakes, but I've always liked the combination of oats and butterscotch, so I use toasted oats cereal (such as Cheerios).
