Muddy Buddies are one of my favorite childhood treats. Only we called it puppy chow– and I’m not really sure why. I think my mom made it for every road trip we went on, and let me tell you, it didn’t last long in a car full of three boys and this food-lovin’-girl. I hadn’t…
Chocolate
Browned Butter Chunky Twix Cookies
These cookies are exactly the reason I shouldn’t buy bags of Halloween candy a whole month before Halloween. When I do, I eat entire bags at a time. Or throw them into cookies, eat those too, and then I’m left with nothin’ when the kids come-a-knockin’. But Twix bars might just be…
Chocolate Chip-Pecan Pumpkin Spice Pudding Cookies
I’ve made these cookies about five times in the last month. Because about a month ago I bought out the entire stock of Jell-O Instant Pumpkin Spice Pudding at Wal-Mart. Mostly with intentions of making this Pumpkin Lust Cake a few times this fall. But that left me with about a dozen extra boxes of Pumpkin Spice Pudding. …
Cookies & Cream Hot Cocoa (in the Blendtec)
Tomorrow’s the last day to enter the Blendtec Blender Giveaway, so enter now if you haven’t:) I mentioned earlier this week that we’ve used our Blendtec to make hot chocolate. Not just the ordinary stuff, I’m talking gourmet. I’m talking Cookies & Cream Hot Cocoa. I figured if the Blendtec can make soup and get it…
Pumpkin Quinoa Breakfast Cookies
Didn’t you hear? It’s totally normal to eat cookies for breakfast. Especially if they are actually called breakfast cookies. But not to worry, they taste just like middle-of-the day, after-dinner, and late-night-snack kind of cookies. Meaning, you’re totally getting away with eating dessert for breakfast. I changed up this recipe from Bon Appetit…
Oatmeal M&M Cookies
My little brother has been serving a mission for our church for the last two years and he comes home today! So I’m in Colorado to greet him at the airport with my parents and then spending the rest of the week with my family and little brother (who’s actually not so little any more)….
Easy Baked Biscuit Donuts
We seriously live right across the street from a grocery store. Right across the street. Do you know how many times I go to this store in a week? I really shouldn’t say, and Brett really doesn’t need to know. But do you know what it’s like living across the street from a grocery…
Gooey Chocolate Butter Cookies
Let me tell you about my two year old. The kid thinks he’s Spiderman. He’s out to get every bad guy and every monster out there, and I get to be his side kick. But he just doesn’t understand why his “webs no work???” Yesterday at the grocery store, I found several additional items…
Chocolate Chip Zucchini Brownies with Homemade Chocolate Whipped Cream
Some of our best friends just moved away to Michigan. They are like family to us and I swear Owen would live with them if he could {at least for a few days}. We helped them load their stuff into the moving truck the night before they left and when it was time so say…
10 things in 10 Years & Chocolate Oreo Cookie Cake
Over the weekend we drove eight hours to Colorado (oh wait it was more like 12 with a toddler and a newborn) to attend my 10 year high school reunion. It was fun to see old friends and reminisce on our care-free, responsibility-free days of high school. I’ve been thinking about all that has…
