COMPOST COOKIE®
From Tosi: Compost Cookies® always turn out great in my mother’s kitchen because she infamously has a hodgepodge of mix-ins, none in great enough quantity to make an actual single-flavored cookie on its own. My brother-in-law calls them “garbage cookies”; others call them “kitchen sink cookies.” Call them what you want, and make them as we make them at Milk Bar, or add your own favorite snacks to the cookie base in place of ours.

Birthday Cake
We took the best parts of childhood, removed all of the awkwardness and added heaps of made-from-scratch birthday cake and frosting (inspired by the boxed supermarket stuff we grew up with). Meet Milk Bar’s B’day Cake, packed with b’day crumbs in the middle, even more on top and dreamy vanilla vibes throughout.

B'Day Truffles
From Tosi: My favorite offering at Milk Bar is our cake truffles, spawned entirely from leftover bits and pieces of cake! You can choose to follow the recipe, or get crazy, without our guidance, using leftovers to concoct your own. Don’t limit yourself to birthday cake; you can use any cake scrap and any leftover fillings, crumbs, or crunches from your kitchen!

Chocolate Peppermint Cutout Cookies
From Tosi: Vanilla cut-out cookies are classic, and gingerbread is everywhere you look in December, but where is the love for chocolate? These cocoa-packed shapes are third fiddle to no one, my friends -- plus the glaze combinations are endless! For a chocolate and peppermint vibe this holiday season, we suggest decorating your cookies with crushed candy canes and pretzels.

CHOCOLATE PRETZEL CEREAL SQUARES
The beauty of this recipe: freestyle however you'd like! Use your fave cereal and mix-ins, or whatever you have in the pantry. This simple yet satisfying recipe requires no baking, and is the perfect (kid friendly!) activity if you want a dessert fix, without the fuss.

Cereal Milk
It took trial, error and more than a few taste tests to land on that hard to describe, but instantly familiar sorta sweet, sorta corny milk flavor at the bottom of your cereal bowl. Now you can recreate your own steeped milk sensation with our recipe as a guide.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE CAKE
Our limited-time-only Strawberry Shortcake Cake is all about the flavors of springtime — buttery vanilla cake and whipped cream frosting with a brilliant punch of strawberry jam (not to mention a throwback to one of Tosi's earliest claims to dessert fame). Try your hand at the recipe!
