Already did blondies.

These might be a good fit, pp:

Going to make my own cranberry "preserves" since cranberries are in the store now. I kind of went crazy and stacked up a bunch of bags to freeze. And will go back for more.

3 cups oats
1 1⁄2 cups flour
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter
1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
1 (10 ounce) jar preserves (apricot is tasty)

DIRECTIONS
combine all ingredients, except preserves.
reserve 1 cup mixture.
press remaining mixture into a greased 9x13 inch pan.
spread with preserves to 1/2 inch of pan.
Sprinkle with remaining mixture.
Bake at 400* for 25-30 minutes , until golden.

Good one
Just made something similar with apple homemade"preserves" (it's apples season), added some almond slices in reserved mixture. Yum

I think I’m going to do a lemon poppyseed pound cake this week.

Going to make the peace cookies. I am not one for shaped cookies or chilling dough (and I have great results). Has anyone made drop cookies out of these?

This is op, I normally hate making this type of cookie but do follow the recipe. It is quick and simple, promise.

Just do a flavor you don’t normally do. Instead of banana bread make a cardamom bread or a pistachio loaf
