a S’more isn’t just for camping…
S’mores are a favorite of mine. I love the combo of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows…it is summer in a bite. NO campfire needed… One of the hardest parts of having s’more is they are traditionally cooked over a campfire, or at least a flame of some sort, but the beauty of these s’mores is that you don’t need a fire of any kind. It is COOKIE time! Getting the fun started… Every good s’more is loaded with graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows and now they are mixed into a cookie. This chocolate chip cookie recipe is balanced perfectly with white sugar and brown sugar. There is also the perfect amount of butter and salt making…

celebrate with cookies
The 4th of July is just around the corner (like next week) and these cookies are a perfect way to celebrate!! These are not just chocolate chip cookies? So what makes these so special? Simple, pudding. Yes there is pudding mix in the cookies, making them super moist and tender and oh so good!! The pudding also adds another layer of vanilla goodness giving these cookies something people will remember. Sprinkles everywhere! To make these already delicious cookies even more fun I threw in some sprinkles. Now you could use any sprinkles you have on hand, but I went with red, white and blue for the upcoming Holiday. Not only…

double the peanut butter goodness
Peanut butter cookies are a must make for the summer (at least in my family). The Hubby loves them, the Dad loves them and my Mammaw loves them. A good peanut butter cookie to me is soft in the center, crispy on the edges and dusted with sugar giving each a bit of extra sweetness and a little crunch. These cookies are all that a little more…I added in some peanut butter chips for an extra bit of peanut butter goodness. They are so easy! One of my favorite things about these peanut butter cookies is the fact that you can mix them up and bake them immediately…no chilling…

remaking the oreo
I love Oreo cookies. At any given time you can find at least 1 package in my pantry…right now I have the original variety and the new S’more variety. PS… the s’more options is so, so good, especially for the summer. As much as I love the Oreo cookie I also love incorporating this favorite into cookies, pies and bars…today we are all about the cookie. If you have spent very much time here you know I love cookies…and I make a lot of cookies for The Hubby, my family & friends. One the years I have made everything form a traditional chocolate chip cookies (this is our favorite…

a little snowball fun
No matter where you live you can have snowball fun…even with no snow. Growing up in Southeast Texas it is rare (like never) that we have enough snow to make a snowball…so this year I decided to make my own snowballs…COOKIES that is. These cookies have been a favorite of my mom’s for years but I had never made them until just recently. I was getting ready for my annual gift baskets and I knew I wanted a cookie that light & buttery with nuts and these immediately came to mind. To make them perfect I decided to search through some of my grandmother’s old cookbooks and came across…

Gluten Free has never been so fun
Chocolate is a must have in my house at all times. I usually have a chocolate bar, a brownie, peanut butter cup or a cookie to satisfy my daily chocolate need. For brownies and cookies the fudgier and richer the better for me. My sea salt caramel brownies are super fudgy but finding a cookie to meet that criteria has been difficult, and I never imagined a gluten free option would give me the perfect chocolate cookie…but I am so glad it did. I have been making gift baskets and I wanted to have a gluten free option in each basket and so I went on the hunt for a…

The perfect Fall cookie
Fall is in full swing and that means everything pumpkin, spice and yummy is everywhere! It seems like every store smells of all the best of fall… a little cinnamon, a little spice and a little sweet. The Hubby loves this season as much as I do and has been handing out little “thank you’s” to his clients. He has given some these chocolate chip cookies, fall maple crunch and then some peanut butter cookie brownies but these little pumpkin delights are my favorite of the bunch for sure. They are light but loaded with tons of flavor in each bite. For this go around I used white chocolate chips and dried…
