Click here to sign up.   Earlier this summer, I shared my recipe for S'mores Cookie Sticks, and while I expected them to be popular, I certainly didn't predict the viral status that they achieved.

The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! This recipe will always have a special place in my heart. Why? Let's go back to 2012 for a minute, shall we? It was February 2012, 7 months after I started this blog, when I was first offered a column in a large kosher magazine. Nowadays, so many bloggers write for the various magazines, that it's hard to describe the exhilaration of such a unique (back then) opportunity. So much has happened since then, hundreds of my recipes have been featured in … [Read more...]

Enjoy the best flavors of summer with these irresistible, sweet and delicate Cherry Pie Thumbprint Cookies.  Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! Today's post is going to be a short one, but the recipe is going to make up for it, I promise! I've been swamped lately, especially with photography work. When I originally quit my full time marketing job, I had dreams about what it would mean to be a full time food blogger.

But in reality, life goes in funny directions some times, and lately, my work as a freelance … [Read more...]

Baked Peaches with Crumble Filling are the summer dessert that you'll dream about all year long! Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group! I ate a local peach yesterday. I know, it shouldn't be quite such a big statement, but I have to say, it was the kind of summery perfection that makes me feel kind of okay about the intense heat, the horrible bugs, and any other annoyances that summer might offer. You know the kind of peach I'm talking about, right? It's sweet and flavorful, and juicy enough to almost be too messy, but in the best possible way. Yeah, it was awesome. And now I can't stop thinking about … [Read more...]

Roasted Peach Pound Cake is the summery cake that will allow you to make the most of summer's bounty! Have a question about one of my recipes? The best place to get answers is the Overtime Cook Recipes Facebook Group. Click here to join the conversation. I've always had a love/hate relationship with summer's stone fruits. On one hand, who doesn't love a good peach? Or plum. Or nectarine. Etc. They're sweet and juicy and just make people happy. So what's the hate all about? I just wish they would be less...finicky. In the autumn, I can buy a bag of apples and keep them in my fridge for (what feels like) months without anything going wrong. Summer fruit, however, doesn't keep that … [Read more...]
