We guarantee these will disappear in a snap, whatever the audience: from hungry kids after a soccer game, to your co-workers gathered around the office coffeepot!

While many peanut butter cake recipes rely on frosting for their peanut butteriness, this cake has peanut butter incorporated directly into the batter itself. The result is tender, rich layers of peanut butter cake that are ready to be paired with any number of frostings and fillings, like our Seven-Minute Frosting, pictured here; see a list of ideas in the baker’s tips below.

We think this fast and easy microwave version of a holiday classic is better than its stove-top counterpart. Its light, airy bite; top-notch flavor, and doesn't-get-stuck-in-your-teeth consistency make it worth putting aside any microwave (and corn syrup) bias you might have to give it a try.

(156 grams) light corn syrup

As children, most of us asked at some point to have cookies for breakfast only to be denied by loving but firm parents. As teens, most of us HAD cookies for breakfast when those parents weren't looking. Enter Breakfast Cookies. These big, hunky chunky cookies combine hearty oats, raisins, barley, granola, even a happy handful of chocolate chips. The added protein from peanut butter provides a satisfying, tummy filling meal that you can round out with fresh fruit, low fat yogurt or juice for a great start to your day, no matter how old you are.
