Crustina

Followed to a T and it was AMAZING! I'm so glad this was my first ever carrot cake recipe I made. I don't think I'll be switching to another. Next time I will add some allspice. For the topping I used a whole can of the cream cheese frosting then added toasted coconut flakes and toasted chopped walnuts on top. Delicious!

These cookies are sooo good! I made them for my Valentine who doesn't like things too sweet so I only used 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/8 cup white sugar and half the chocolate chips (I used white ones). Then I added 1/2 cup of chopped macadamia nuts. The dough was super sticky even after refrigerating it for 1 hr so I was scared they weren't going to turn out good but my kids and sweetie all said they were the best cookies I ever made! I'm sure the original recipe would be amazing too. Next time I'm going to try beet juice instead of the food coloring.
