Brownie Stuffed Cookies

Pin It

 You all know about my affinity for brownies by now. You may also know how I love to dress up a chocolate chip cookie - my other longtime love.  Throw in a generous handful of sprinkles and you have one happy cookie. How could it not be happy? After all, aren't we all happy when stuffed to the brim with brownies, chocolate chip cookies and sprinkles? Indeed.

Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownie Cups

 Is there anything better than chocolate and peanut butter?

YES.

Fudgy brownies and peanut butter cheesecake. It's a real thing, kids, and it's deliriously good.

Today I came to the realization that a very high percentage of what I make involves brownies. I'm ok with that. Hopefully you are too, because I want to share them with you. 

So now you know brownies are my weakness, what's the food you just can't turn down??

Fudge Crunch Brownies

Do you ever have those day's where chocolate is really the only thing you want to eat?
Me too.
Ever have those days where chocolate is really ALL you eat?
Uhhhhh.... me either.
Just in case you are prone to having days like that, I made you something special. They have cereal in them so you can eat them for breakfast. And the peanuts totally count for protein, so why not eat them again for lunch? And the base is the fudgiest yummiest brownie. You deserve one after a long hard day, so go ahead and eat another one for dinner.
Uh oh. I feel another one of those days coming on. :)

Cinnamon Toffee Chex Mix

Pin It

In my very first post, almost 2 months ago, I shared with you one of my favorite things. Be sure to check it out here if you missed it!  I am always creating new flavor combinations of dessert chex mixes. I just love the stuff. They are quick, easy, and you the possibilities are endless!
A few days ago I was in the mood for a sweet chex mix but I wanted to do something different. BAM! It hit me. Cinnamon, chocolate and toffee! It's a beautiful thing, my friends. Whip up a batch today - you won't be sorry!

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Oat Cookies

Pin It

I have been getting requests for this recipe. If you asked for it - this is for you!! I aim to please :)

I am always in the kitchen creating new recipes. Tasty dinners for my family, over the top desserts, fun snack foods, outrageous breakfasts (not before 9 am though...)
But over the years I have made a few recipes over and over and over again.  I like to think I have perfected them.  Since I was about 12 years old I was known for making the BEST brownies. That recipe came from a mistake... proof that you learn from your mistakes, they tasted better than the original! My recipe has changed over the years and I honestly think it couldn't get any better! Same goes for my chocolate chip cookies. I have tinkered with my recipe for years and now I have it exactly the way I want it.  Slightly crisp on the edges. Soft and chewy gooey on the inside. And the dough is so buttery delicious and loaded with chips!
This recipe is a slight variation of my usual recipe. This one has oats! It is not an oatmeal cookie with chocolate chips, it's a chocolate chip cookie with oatmeal. Got it? The oatmeal is complementary, not the star of the show.
It's an all American classic. Like Mickey Mouse :)

Cookie Dough Monster Cupcakes

Pin It

I don't know about you, but chocolate chip cookie dough is one of my most favorite things ever. It never gets old. I make chocolate chip cookies all the time and always eat my fair share of dough. I just can't help myself! 

So when I wanted to make a batch of cupcakes, this was a no brainer. I made them blue as a nod to Cookie Monster, but that's totally optional. Fluffy and moist vanilla cupcakes stuffed with cookie dough, topped with vanilla cream cheese or fudge frosting, and to top it all of a mini chocolate chip cookie. 

They are over the top delicious.

Creamy Seafood Pasta

Pin It

I love seafood.  When I go out to eat, the seafood dishes always jump out at me.  Too bad they're always the most expensive options, I have expensive taste, what can I say?
I made this Creamy Seafood Pasta this week and it made a huge amount for around $10. So this weekend maybe have a date night at home and make this yummy seafood pasta. Save your money for a nice bottle of wine instead. ;)
