They’re my viral chocolate chip cookies all jazzed up with fall spices (which are pretty on point with winter ones, too!)— cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves! 🥰

And that spiced drizzle on top? It’s optional, buuuuuut I think you should consider it mandatory 😏

Listen, I have no problem giving credit where credit is due. Toll House set us up with a solid foundation. Truly! 🥲

But the Fresh April Flours version that I’ve perfected over the last decade+ has gotten reviews like these ones that just came in over the last month:

🍪 “No joke… these are the BEST. I have faithfully stuck to a different variation of the tollhouse recipe up until now, but I will only be using this recipe going forward. Followed all of the steps to a tee and these are genuinely the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve had in my life!!”

🍪 “Hands down. These are truly the best chocolate chip cookies!!! Absolutely delicious every time.”

🍪 “I’ve baked a lot of chocolate chip cookies and love trying new recipes. Made these last night and they are the best chocolate chip cookie I think I’ve made.”

🍪 “The BEST chocolate chip cookie recipe I’ve found. I’ve been looking for years for a recipe that turns out like these – they are SO good. The recipe is easy and consistent, they turn out delicious every single time.”

What’s different, you ask? Melted butter instead of softened, one less egg white, more brown sugar, a little cornstarch, and my signature combo of milk + semi-sweet chocolate chips make for a cookie that will win you over in a heartbeat, I guarantee it! 🙌

Grateful for my jar of molasses carrying the team this baking season 🧑‍🍳

Ok, but for real, there’s nothing wrong with traditional cinnamon rolls… BUT if you’re looking for a cozy, spiced, ultra soft and fluffy seasonal flavor to make this year, these gingerbread ones are it 🎯

Molasses and a blend of warm spices flavor grace every layer all the way from the dough and the sticky filling to the flavorful cream cheese frosting slathered on top 🤩

Plus, this recipe is written as a small batch, so it makes 6! Easily doubled for a larger crowd or the perfect size for your fam in the morning ☀️

Even though pine nuts are a little on the pricey side, I SWEAR by these pignoli cookies. They’re always a crowd pleaser and they are safe to eat by most folks as they don’t have any gluten or dairy, and pine nuts are an uncommon allergy. 

They’re super simple to put together and they don’t require any chilling, which means you get a super delicious and unique cookie on the spread without a lot of fuss 🙌

Save this for when you’re putting those cookie tins together this weekend! 🍪

Hi! 👋 I’m Lynn from @freshaprilflours, and if you’re great at baking until pie crust shows up… Welcome! 🤗

I get it— making a whole pie can be daunting if you’ve never done it before, EVEN IF you’ve made the most intricate desserts successfully in the past.

A galette is the PERFECT stepping stone to pie if you’ve never made one OR the perfect compromise if the thought of making another pie makes you Big Sigh 😮‍💨

Galettes are “lazy pies,” and they are very simple to make. This blackberry version uses a honey-sweetened whipped feta and fresh blackberries folded into my flaky, buttery from-scratch pie dough in a rustic, low-pressure-but-still-impressive dessert.

My job here on the internet is so help you create desserts that feel doable but still get the wow. Just consider me your low-pressure dessert person 🤩

Follow along with me for approachable, from-scratch recipes and step-by-step guidance every week 🥰

Everyone knows plump raisins make the best oatmeal raisin cookies. Duh 😒

Hi! 👋 I’m Lynn, and if you’ve ever said “this is the year I learn yeast bread” while quietly being terrified of it… Welcome. You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be 🤩

I used to be afraid of yeast bread, too. Then in 2011, my mom showed me how to make it and I remember thinking “wait… THAT’S IT???” 😱

No magic. No chef secrets. Just understanding what’s actually happening. And the rest is history.

Every year, I run a monthly baking series where we build out one category at a time. This year was cinnamon rolls. In 2026, we’re going all in on yeast bread— the kind that builds confidence, not anxiety 😅

Think:
🥪 sandwich bread
🍞 cinnamon swirl raisin bread
🥖 breadsticks
 🥨 soft pretzels
🍞 challah
🍞 brioche

All breads that teach you something and build on your skills as you go 💁‍♀️

And if you’re tired of yeast feeling intimidating, or you just want 2026 to be the year bread finally clicks, consider me your no-judgment, step-by-step bread friend 🥰

Still not sure I’m your person? Here’s what other bakers have said:

⭐️ “I have not had good luck with yeast recipes in the past but this was exactly as the title describes… EASY!” — Robyn

⭐️ “I admit to being super intimidated to make these, but they really are a great recipe for beginners.” — Barbra

⭐️ “Normally, I think yeast bread is super scary… but these yeast rolls are not scary!” — Jessie

⭐️ “Delicious, super easy, and they look bakery-made!” — Jayne

So! Follow along @freshaprilflours for monthly yeast bread recipes, clear instructions, and the confidence to say “yeah, I bake bread now” 😎

Do you think chocolate chip cookies are boring? 🥱

I used to be there, too. I grew up eating my frugal grandmother’s chocolate chip cookies, which was the Nestle Tollhouse recipe with HALF OF THE CHIPS.

Blasphemy 🫨

This tried-and-true, loved-by-many, crispy-edged and soft-centered cookie is modeled after the one I discovered in my high school cafeteria (true story) which completely changed the way I felt about chocolate chip cookies 💕

With two kinds and size of chips and plenty of chew to go around, I have a feeling if you’re still searching for your favorite recipe, this one might be the ticket 🥹🍪

IN FACT!! Reader Brooke had THIS to say ⬇️

“This is an unpopular opinion, but chocolate chip cookies are 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙪𝙨𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙚𝙭𝙘𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙚… WOW! The reason I’ve never been that excited about chocolate chip cookies is because 𝙄’𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚! They are perfectly crispy and chewy and full of chips! 5 stars! Totally recommend! Will certainly be doing this again!” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Give ‘em a try! 🙌

It’s day 11 of our 12 Days of Cookies, and this one is one you may have seen this summer if you were around these parts then! 🍪 #faf12daysofcookies

This cookie was part of my “baking for fun” during my time off of content creation, and the recipe actually comes from my friend Molly at @what_mollymade 🫶

Her original recipe is mostly intact, but I did scale the recipe down to make a smaller batch, adjusted some of the ingredients to accommodate what is most available to average home bakers, and tweaked the instructions to match the way I typically guide my bakers through a recipe 🧑‍🍳

My friends, these cookies are stupid good 🤪 And while they take a little more elbow grease than most cookies on my site, they are well worth it! The process itself is really easy, and I have all the photos and a video to help you succeed ✅
