Busy & Baking

You'd think that I'd have more free time now that it is summer, and I will admit that I've had a little more lounging time but when the internet is downstairs you find other things to do. Haha- I've been trying to clean out my room, the SPRING CLEAN sweep and instead of finishing that I've decided to buy books on clearance at Borders and bake 2-3 times a week.

The first item that was stirred up was choc full of chocolate chip cookies and these were VERY chocolate filled cookies. Basically the only thing holding these chocolate chips together was a little bit of dough. I thought they were a little dry but everyone said they were fine. Next on the list was Banana Oatmeal Chocolate chip cookies and these were SO moist. SO good and probably the best if a little bit chilled.

Now my mom was enjoying all these goodies but not the dishes, so I figured I should make the recipe that she wanted to try, Cinnamon Shortbread. I didn't think they were that special but made it for her anyway. Oh my was it good.

My most popular treat was the white chocolate chip coffee toffee bars. They are like blondies and everyone just LOVES them. Baked them late one night and my mom stayed up until they were all done.

Also managed to make double chocolate chip mini cupcakes/ muffins. Covered them with powered sugar and boy were they just delicious with a glass of milk.

ANYWAY- my latest treat has been kitchen sink cookies. They had 3 cups of chocolate chips, 1 cup of pecans, cup of walnuts, cup of almonds and boy are they awesome warm and in a glass of milk! hehe

GUNNA TRY to keep you posted on the baked goods and summer schedule.

HOPEFULLY BEACH IS IN THE NEW FUTURE!!!
