I love cannoli's!  Let's just start there.  I remember when I was little my Nana and I would spoon out all of the ricotta filling from the shell of the cannoli and would laugh like little kids.  I really miss her especially around the holidays.  I just hope I am as good as a grandmother as she was to me!  

I came up with these cookies as it has the ingredients as a cannoli but in the form of a cookie. 

Please enjoy and Merry Christmas xo

These cookies are so pretty and make a dessert tray very inviting.  You can really use your creativity on these and make your favorite shapes and sizes.

It's apple time of year!  These were so easy to create and delicious to eat...

I am in the process of moving to our lake house for the summer and step one is cleaning out the refrigerator and using up what we have then bring up the rest. I have always hated to waste food and try to be creative in using it up! I love to create new recipes then share them with my lake neighbors over the summer. (they love it too)...

I had a bag of shredded carrots from another recipe for my segment on NBC CT  and am really not a huge fan. I like them in recipes but won't just cut them and eat them. Not sure why! Anyway - I decided to make cookies. I was actually pleased with them as I tested one and as I handed them out everyone love them! That made me happy!

If you don't have the already shredded carrots handy then use a hand grater or your food processor!

The first time I made these they vanished very fast..mostly from me eating them!  Now you can find them on my counter on a regular basis, but I do share them!

You can make these a lot neater then I did.  I actually ran out of flour so I was struggling a little but the clear wrap helped a lot.  Go to youtube and search for fig newtons and they will show you how to roll the dough.  I used a clear wrap on the bottom and the top of my dough.  It made it a lot easier to roll.  I can't wait to make these again!

Enjoy xoxo

I am having so much fun with zucchini this week!  These cookies are so light and a perfect snack with your afternoon tea!  (that's what I am doing)..  Enjoy my paleo zucchini cookies.

The classic "Biscotti" as they are often known here in the United States.  In Italian, the word biscotti simply means "biscuits".

Thanks to Shop Rite for all of the ingredients to prepare this paleo dessert for my blog!

Jake's toy happened to be near me when I took this picture!  How cute...  Well I am getting ready for spring and we have been cleaning like crazy!  All of our cabinets (where does that stuff come from) and I was organizing our large pantry!  I made these cookies by finding the raisins and went from there.  

They were a hit!  Whew....    So yummy..  Go ahead and give them a try!

They actually remind me of oatmeal raisin cookies but better.
