Would definitely buy again!

With all the Oreos I’ve picked up in the past week for the last Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie, and looking for something simpler and would produce a few more cookies for a big BBQ…I went on Picky Palate and found another “oreo cookie” recipe…and well, another great success!!! Everyone LOVED it!!!
Overnight, it’s a little hard, but OMG fresh??? It’s EXTRA CHEWY!
OK. So this is what you need.
Ingredients:
2 sticks softened butter
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips, I used semi-sweet
1 cup cocoa powder
15 whole Oreo Cookies, finely ground
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat liner.
2. In a stand or electric mixer, beat butter and sugars until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until well combined.
3. Place flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add to wet ingredients along with cocoa powder, and chocolate chips, slowly mixing until just combined. With a medium cookie scoop, scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart from each other. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve with milk.
Makes 3 dozen cookies… and it’s best with vanilla ice-cream… heck use them to make ice-cream sandwiches with!!! YUM!

As some would say it…. OOOOO EEEMMM GGGGEEEE!
I’m checking my daily emails from ALLLL the goodies I subscribe to…and came across this recipe that’s too amazing to not share!
The best of both worlds really….an Oreo cookie….and a Chocolate Chip cookie…ALL IN 1!!!! This sounds and looks better and much more appetizing than those Deep Fried Oreos you can get from theme parks!
Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookies - made by me
So According to Bonnie Mo @ SweetHome.ca she saw the recipe from Picky Palate… Jenny there made it really clear this is HER original recipe so… and you know how it is when it’s original… YUM!
Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies
recipe courtesy of Picky Palate
Ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a stand mixer (you can also use a hand mixer), cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add to the wet mixture and combine thoroughly. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop place one scoop of dough on top of an Oreo cookie. Place another single scoop on the bottom of the Oreo to create a cookie sandwich. Seal the edges together to completely close in the Oreo.
Place the balls of cookie dough on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 9-13 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack.

So back when I was volunteering for the Winter Olympics, when me and the girls gets super bored, we go onto Stumble Upon and “stumble” onto many random sites.
Well one of the many sites I came across was this one that teaches you how to make a 3 minute chocolate cake in a mug. So months later, I finally went to the store to grab the ingredients and well decided to follow the recipe and try this magical cake out.
Well as you can see from the gallery bellow….. it was successful in “cooking” the cake in the microwave…BUT it looks EXTREAMLY and taste EXTREAMLY nasty! I highly NOT recommend this recipe at all…You’d have to be desperate for chocolate cake to make this.

This is what happens when you are hungry and at work… You look at recipes online, especially breakfast recipes! I just came across another alternative to the breakfast in a cup!
Courtesy of The Noshery another site that I check often for all things yum, I came across this:
A 2 Bite Breakfast: Bacon & Eggs in Toast Cups!
I figure, you know, everyone must have toasts at home some how, so this may be easier than getting bread bowls from my previous posting.
Curtesy of The Noshery
This recipe makes about 6 of these little bites.
Ingredients:
As an aside, to make it extra breakfastsy, add some maple syrup to it! YUMMMMMM!
**Update** So I tried this idea… using Crescent Rolls instead of bread…SO Good!!!
