Oatmeal Toffee Chocolate Chunk cookies

These cookies may not look like much but as the saying goes, "looks can be deceiving!" Chocolate, toffee, and oatmeal combine to make a truly delectable cookie. I made these cookies when my sister Emmalee and her husband Jon, and my other sister Becky with her boyfriend Isaac came over. To say that they liked these cookies is an understatement. The plate of cookies was devoured in about 10 minutes. Okay, okay, so I had a few myself. What can I say? They were delicious!

Oatmeal Toffee Chocolate Chunk Cookies

modified from a random airline magazine - who would've thought?

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/3 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cup oatmeal1 cup toffee pieces

1 cup milk chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter and both sugars until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla until well blended. Combine soda with flour, and mix into the butter mixture. Sitr in the oatmeal, and then add the toffee pieces and chocolate chips. Batter will be thick. Drop onto a parchment lined baking sheet by heaping teaspoons full and bake 10-12 minutes. Makes 4 dozen.

*These cookies will spread out quite a bit so leave plenty of room between them! Also, it's not a bad idea to grease your spatula because these cookies are sticky and soft coming out of the oven. Not to worry, they'll firm up once they cool.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go: I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra. No judgement here :) Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out. They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies. It was love at first bite. Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates. I love them so much ! However, there are two things I didn't like about them. 1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive. I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate.

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

I know, I know. We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog. I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing. While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread. More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast. My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist. What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin. They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins. These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
