White Chocolate Chocolate Cookies

This is the backwards chocolate chip cookie. 

I think I have turned my husband into a cookie monster.  He likes having cookies in the cookie jar and our cookie jar has been empty lately.  So, I decided to fill the cookie jar!  He asked me "what kind are you making?"  I said probably chocolate chip cookies well I made the reverse of chocolate chip cookies.  I found the recipe on allrecipes.com.  This is one of my favorite sites for recipes.

Here is the recipe White Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 cups white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cream butter and sugars until creamy and then add eggs.  In a separate bowl mix cocoa, flour, and baking soda.  Slowly add flour mixture to butter mixture and then fold in white chocolate chips.  Bake for 8-10 minutes. 

They were very yummy!  I love white chocolate! ♥

The Perfect Sugar Cookie

Last week I made The Perfect Sugar Cookie from Dinners for A Year and Beyond's blog.  This cookie is great!  My little guy and I made these and they were very easy.  I did put my dough in the fridge for a couple days until I had time to make it, but they turned out so great even that way!

We did the fall/halloween themed sugar cookies (above), a snickerdoodle sugar cookie (below), and a sugar cookie dipped in chocolate almond bark (way down below).  The snickerdoodle sugar cookie was rolled in sugar and cinnamon and well the chocolate almond bark cookie was well...you guessed it dipped in chocolate.

The flirty snickerdoodle sugar cookie. ;)

Ummm...I love cookies!  In moderation that is! ♥

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

My husband and son love Reese's Peanut Butter cups. They are probably one of my little family's weakness. So when I found this cookie recipe I knew it was going to be a hit! I found the recipe on AllRecipes website.

Here is the recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies.

Oh so gooey and yummy!

Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies

Since it's chilly out I have been baking like there is no tomorrow! I made more chocolate chip cookies. This time from Pioneer Woman's blog.



Here is the recipe for the Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies. I did like them. I didn't love them...but I think the butter might have been too warm or too much butter and they totally flattened out. I don't like flat cookies, but I am sure others do.


Also...they didn't taste like a chocolate malt. I was really hoping they would. I may make this recipe again, but next time I am going to do some tweaking. I want to use less butter, a little more flour, and maybe some cocoa. I want a chunky cookie with more of a chocolate malt flavor.


Don't get me wrong though...they are still yummy and we will eat them! No worries there! I just won't follow this recipe exactly the same next time.

Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies

My friends and I had a picnic at our local park this last Sunday. We all got together for sandwiches and then shared dips, chips, fruit, and cookies. Everything was awesome!

Here is the recipe I followed for the Yogurt Chocolate Chip Cookies. This chocolate chip cookie recipe is probably my favorite right now. I didn't change a thing. I also made these earlier in the summer with margarine, but I used butter this time. I like the use of margarine in the recipe better.



Some other things I brought to the picnic were pico de gallo, grapes, and natural white cheddar Cheetos!

Strawberry & Spinach Salad and SnickerDoodle Cheerio Cookies

A few weekends ago we went camping. I brought a few different things to share with my family.

First I wanted a salad to contribute to the meal. I made this Strawberry and Spinach Salad It was great! It tasted like strawberry jam. I will definitely make it again! When anything is close to 5 stars on Allrecipes.com then you know it's going to be good!

For dessert and snacking I brought these awesome Snicker Doodle Cheerio Cookies! They were just the right texture for a cookie and sugary on the outside. I have made a few different recipes from noblepig.com and all of the recipes have been awesome! My whole family loved them! Except my son...Lukas will only eat cookies that have chocolate in them. I am not even kidding! If he doesn't see chocolate he isn't eating it!
