This is what I cook… when I don’t want chocolate! 

This is my favorite super easy recipe. 

  • 1 cup unsalted butter , room temperature
  • 2/3 cup + 3 tablespoons granulated sugar , divided
  • 2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla (optional, but recommended)
  • rainbow sprinkles or nonpareils (optional, but recommended)

Scoop with cookie scoop to create one inch balls. Flatten balls slightly and and roll in 3 tablespoons of sugar or sprinkle with sprinkles. Bake at 325 for 14-16 minutes. Cool for another 10 minutes before taking off cookie sheet.

Swedish Pancakes

This is what I cook… for breakfast, lunch, dinner or anytime.  This is a Minnesota recipe from my sister-in-law. Swedish pancakes (or crepes) are thinner and more “eggy” than regular pancakes. They can be savory or sweet with toppings of your choice. My favorite are to make them with ham & cheese or with strawberry sauce & whipped cream.  Recipe: 3 eggs 1 1/4 cup milk 1 1/2 cups of flour 3 tbsp sugar 1/4 tsp salt Mix all ingredients together. Pour large circles onto hot griddle. Cook on both sides until golden brown. Fill or top with toppings of your choice. (Picture above: I filled with ham & Swiss cheese and topped with a Dijon béchamel sauce.)
