Homemade Cheese Ravioli Recipe

 

Ravioli is a tradition in my family. It has always been a Christmas time staple made by my Grandmother. Since my Grandmothers passing, it continues to be a tradition made by my Aunt and cousins, and whomever is around to help that year. This year I had the honor of helping make it. Although I don't have my Grandma's recipe, I came up with my own for the purpose of this post. It turned out pretty great! I'm not sure how close this is to my Grandma's recipe, but it tastes similar to me. Although I don't get to have the real stuff as often as I'd like!

This may seem like a complicated recipe but it's actually quite easy.

Baked Ziti Recipe

We have had very little sleep lately so I've been looking for simplicity when it comes to cooking. Here is a recipe that I came up with the other day that is quite easy to make, and also a little bit lighter than your usual baked ziti. It was so good that we ate it for 3 days. I normally have a rule about leftovers... that unless it is something really delicious, I will only eat it for 2 days. This one was an exception to the rule for sure.

Salted Caramel Chocolate Cookies

Here is a yummy recipe that I came up with the other day as I was wanting something chocolate. I originally made them without the salt and caramel but felt they needed a little something extra. They turned out great! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

You guys, this is the BEST chocolate chip cookie recipe ever. I'm not just saying that. You have to try these. They are seriously easy to make and taste sooo good. They are soft in the middle and crispy on the edges. A little bit of crunch, with that soft center and oozing chocolate...  what's not to love? And the best part of it all is these are totally customizable. 

You can add in walnuts, m&m's, coconut, chopped Andes mints, white chocolate chips, peanut butter chocolate chips, chopped Snickers bars, or anything else you would like. I've done all of these and they turned on great. The cookies pictured are just straight up chocolate chips. I was feeling like I just wanted a classic cookie today. But the possibilities with this recipe are endless!
