I'm not trying to be a snob or anything, but the magic of this recipe isn't just those flavor bomb mushrooms that cook alongside the brisket, which will make you wonder how it's possible for a simple mushroom to be so intensely rich and decadent.  The real secret of this brisket is the mushroom flavor that seeps into the meat! We all know that mushrooms give off lots of liquid when they cook, right? Well, what if I told you that the mushroom liquid gets absorbed by the meat, making it … [Read more...]

Toasted Marshmallow Cookies

December 26, 2023 by overtimecook 19 Comments

Toasted Marshmallow Cookies are easy to make, but might just be the most delicious cookie you've ever eaten!  I know I’m probably guilty of saying this too often, but these may just be the best cookies I’ve ever created.

Just trust me when I say that you’ve got to try these!  Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? It’s full of recipes, kitchen tips, menus and more! Click here to sign up.
