Lucy’s Salty Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies + Momofuku Milk Bar Cookies
I care about you, readers, and I don’t want you to go through this weekend without cookies. Everyone deserves cookies, especially on the weekend.

Pfeffernussen, Orange Sables & The Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie of Your Dreams
The Baking Bug isn’t a ladybug, it’s a wasp: once it stings you, you’ve been stung. Such has been the case with my friend Josh Hume, director of my show on Food2 and a recent convert to the world of baking. He loves it. He calls himself Man Martha because of his love for Martha…

Martha Stewart’s Pecan Chocolate Chunk White Chocolate Chip Cookies
So despite my self-proclaimed ineptitude in the kitchen, I do have a knack for all things sweet and desserty. I’m a baker, not a fighter.One of my favorite cookie recipes comes from America’s most beloved white collar criminals / domestic goddesses, Marthalicious Stewart. Available on her website for no charge (or the occassional insider trading…
