Monster Cookies

Monster Cookies

2 c. oats, 
3 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 c. butter, soften
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 c. peanut butter
3/4 c. semi sweet chocolate chips
3/4 c. butterscotch chips
3/4 c. m&m's
3/4 c. raisins

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  In a medium bowl mix together  oats, flour and baking soda.  Set a side. In an electric mixer or with a hand held mixture, mix butter and sugars together until light and fluffy.  Next add eggs until well incorporated and then add honey and vanilla. Once this is well mixed add in the bananas and then the peanut butter.  Slowly add in oat mixture until well blended.  With a wooden spoon add in chips and raisins.  I made big cookies with this recipe, so I took a 1/4 measuring cup and scooped out 5 cookie balls per baking sheet and then baked then for 10-13  minutes or until golden brown.  Remove from baking sheets and let cool or a wire rack. 

Almond Toffee Bites

My least favorite so far.  I didn't have almonds so maybe that's it or I just made them wrong.  Don't get me wrong.  They're good but not great.

Pumpkin Snickerdoodles

This one was a last minute addition to my list.  I had some left over pumpkin in the fridge that needed to be used.  So I found a recipe and went with it.  Another keeper!

Ritz Crackers Candy

This one was a lot of fun to make but I made a few changes to the original recipe.  I felt that the portion sides were off so instead of half cups I used full cups.  ie: 1 c. chocolate chip, 1 c. walnuts, 1 c. white chips and then instead of peanut butter chips I used 1 c. butterscotch chips.

Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites

I made these last year and they were a fan favorite.  I didn't have enough chocolate however, so I used butterscotch chips to deep the rest of the pretzel bites in.  I also had enough butterscotch left over to drizzle over all of the bites.

Chocolate Cherry Marshmallow Crunch Bars

I don't know what to say about this one.  It's tasty but confusing at the same time.  The different layers are so different.

Annalise's 4th Birthday Party

We had a ton of fun this past weekend celebrating my daughter's 4th birthday.  It was Hello Kitty and winter themed.  Oh, and did I mention everything had to be pink! The candy, the cake, the decor....lets just say it was a pink nightmare.  But for my girl, anything goes.  Hope you enjoy and maybe you'll get some ideas for your pink lover.

Christmas Cookie Extraviganza...Coffee Cake Cookies

Every year my mom and I make as few as 40 different kinds of cookies and then put together cookie boxes for our friends and family.   This year is no different however, I decided to post the cookies I'm making and the websites from which them came.  I'll post one each day until all are complete.  Enjoy!
