Frozen Bananas (with or without Peanut Butter)

PollyJune 4, 2011August 28, 2025

I’ve been making frozen bananas for a long time and have decided that Hershey’s Special Dark is the best chocolate to compliment the taste of the banana—odd, since I am usually a milk chocolate devotee. It is also the most…

Looking for a last minute new pie for Thanksgiving? Then, here it is—Cranberry-Blueberry Pie! I served it to my Together Women Rise group last night with a scoop of Cinnamon Ice Cream. There were some happy hums, some moans and several…

Pumpkin Pancakes with Maple Apples

PollyNovember 23, 2010September 16, 2025

My daughter, Hannah, has started a new Thanksgiving tradition for our family, and I rather like it.  She invites our neighbors and friends over for Pumpkin Pancakes on Thanksgiving morning. She suggests they come in their jammies, too! I am not seen…

Fun-Face Cookie-Pops

PollyOctober 27, 2010August 28, 2025

Is it a cookie? Is it a lollipop? It’s a Fun-Face Cookie-Pop! My kids loved these, both making them and eating them. We’ve been making these candy studded spice cookie pops every Fall since 1998, and unfortunately I don’t remember where I originally found the recipe. One…

Cheddar Cheese Crackers

Look what I made for my grandson’s Pups and Trucks birthday party, cheddar dog bone crackers! Aren’t they adorable? I think the two-year-olds, and their parents, are really going to enjoy them 🙂  I used a small cookie cutter to cut the bone…

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

PollyOctober 16, 2010September 16, 2025

My new favorite muffin recipe, just in time for your fall weekend baking:  Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins!  This muffin has been likened to the Starbucks Cream Cheese Pumpkin Muffins, and I think that’s a fair comparison, but I like this…

With White Chocolate and Cherries! This recipe has been floating around the internet quite a bit lately—seems like everyone is making it! I found the recipe at My Baking Addiction. My verdict? This is a good seasonal cookie—the white chocolate and…

Zucchini Pasta

PollySeptember 11, 2010August 28, 2025

I have debated back and forth about posting this recipe. Pros: it uses up zucchini, which is very important this time of year! The pasta recipe is good; simple, straightforward, and good. Cons: It’s not GREAT; it’s good, but it’s lacking…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
