PREVIEW TEXT GOES HERE Italian Meatloaf My family loves this delicious Italian meatloaf that is essentially one big giant meatball. It's comforting and satisfying, and the smell of it baking in the oven always lures everyone to the kitchen. I serve it with a big Italian salad and Parmesan smashed potatoes, but it is also delicious with pasta. If you're lucky enough to have leftovers, the meatloaf is even better the next day, sliced and topped with melted cheese in a warm sandwich. It's easy to make two meatloaves, so you might as well—one to freeze and the other to bake straight away. READ MORE Snowball Cookies Dusted in powdered sugar like fresh snow, snowballs are simple shortbread-like cookies made with a mixture of flour and ground nuts, giving them a slightly nutty flavor and delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture. READ MORE Christmas Wreath Cookies Made with cornflakes, marshmallows and green food coloring, Christmas wreath cookies are a festive twist on the classic Rice Krispie treat. They have a crispy, crunchy, gooey texture that is perfect for shaping into wreaths and decorating with colorful icing, sugar pearls, mini candies, or whatever you like. READ MORE The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies The simplest recipes are typically the hardest to get right, and classic chocolate chip cookies are a perfect example. The most popular recipe is found on the back of the Nestlé Toll House chocolate chip bag, but if you follow the recipe as is, the cookies often come out flat as pancakes. A few tweaks to the classic recipe make these the best chocolate chip cookies ever. READ MORE Chocolate Crinkle Cookies With their rich chocolate flavor and chewy center, chocolate crinkles are a cross between a brownie and a cookie. The secret to their crinkled appearance? A simple trick: rolling the dough balls in confectioners' sugar before baking. As the cookies puff up in the oven, the sugar cracks and reveals the dark chocolate center. READ MORE Peanut Butter Blossoms Peanut butter blossoms are soft and tender peanut butter cookies topped with milk chocolate Hershey's kisses. They are undeniably adorable, a breeze to make, and sinfully good. Shop My Kitchen The OXO cookie scooper is a kitchen essential for anyone who loves to bake cookies.
