Chewy and moist on the inside, crispy and golden on the outside, these coconut macaroons are delicious plain but even more irresistible dipped in chocolate. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461777980-3795995-unionsquarebarnuts.jpg




Sweet, salty, spicy, and rosemary-infused, these nuts are highly addictive. I suggest making a double batch so you can keep some for yourself. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461778640-8196051-Granola.jpg




Packed in a mason jar or pretty tin, homemade granola makes the perfect gift for the health-conscious mom. This version, inspired by the granola served The Inn at Occidental in Sonoma County, CA, is packed with clusters of old-fashioned oats, nuts, seeds, dried fruits, toasted coconut, honey and wheat germ. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461779308-591268-DoubleChocolateBiscotti.jpg




Biscotti are twice-baked, oblong shaped cookies made intentionally dry and crunchy — and these are made with a double dose of chocolate. When you dunk them in coffee or tea, they soften, becoming rich, fudgy and decadent. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461780398-4867598-almondbiscotti.jpg




These almond-studded biscotti are buttery, lightly sweet, crunchy but not tooth-shattering — and as good with your morning coffee as they are with afternoon tea or ice cream. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461779623-4842318-CrackNutssweetspicypecans.jpg




My husband calls these candied pecans “crack nuts” because they’re madly addictive. The best part? You only need four simple ingredients to make them — and if you start right now, you’ll be done in 15 minutes. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-27-1461780223-7860826-CrispyGingerCookies.jpg




These are the perfect ginger cookies: they have just the right balance of spices — think ginger, cinnamon, cloves, allspice and black pepper — and a wonderful buttery-crisp texture. Plus, they look so pretty stacked and tied with a bow. GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-28-1461807715-5011166-crazygooditalianpopcorn.jpg




For moms who love movies, how about her favorite flick and a tin of homemade popcorn? This version, adapted from Crazy Good Italian by D.C. Chef and Top Chef All-Stars runner-up Mike Isabella, is tossed with garlic butter, Parmesan, oregano and red pepper flakes. It’s insanely addictive (yes, crazy good). GET THE RECIPE





2016-04-28-1461808563-2104082-CaramelCorn.jpg




Or, if sweet popcorn is more mom’s thing, try this homemade caramel corn. It’s easy to make at home — and you don’t need a giant copper kettle, or even a candy thermometer, to make it. GET THE RECIPE





2016-05-07-1462625260-6944547-coconutlimemexicanweddingcookies.jpg




Also known as Snowballs, Butter Balls or Russian Tea Cakes, Mexican Wedding Cookies are adorable shortbread-like cookies made from ground nuts, flour, butter and sugar. This version — flavored with lime, pecans and ground coconut — has a tropical twist. GET THE RECIPE
