I really am a chocoholic, I crave it, I need it. These cookies are a wonderful fix and would be great to take to a holiday cookie swap or added to holiday baskets. The guys loved them and I can’t stop eating them. A really simple cookie, but the chocolate is so satisfying with a…
Dulce de Leche Cake Pops & a Giveaway
I have been a fan of Bakerella since I first spotted her on The Pioneer Woman’s blog. She comes up with the cutest concoctions I’ve ever seen. I am not a skilled decorator of baked goods, actually far from it. However, Bakerella’s step by step instructions are so good, even I can do them! Her…
Oatmeal Cookies with Chocolate Covered Raisins
Don’t you love oatmeal cookies? Well these are souped up with chocolate covered raisins. I could eat the whole pack of chocolate covered raisins by myself and then I don’t feel so well.

Chocolate Cinnamon Chip Ice Cream
I promised more ice cream recipes and here is the first of several. I made two attempts at homemade chocolate ice cream before I was happy. Yeah, I had to eat two batches of chocolate ice cream, it was difficult. Okay, maybe difficult to button my pants after that. I bought some cinnamon chips that…
Chocolate – Cinnamon Cookies
I have a new found love of chocolate and cinnamon together. These cookies are soft and super tasty. In fact I can’t stop eating them, I may need a twelve step program. I drizzled a little white chocolate over the top and wow wee they are yummy! These would make excellent cookies for…
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Pie
When my oldest son was in first grade, the teacher had the kids draw a picture and write a sentence about their Mom. She put all of the pictures into a book for the kids to read. My son wrote, “My mom eats leftover pie and watches movies.” So I reckon that establishes…
