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.

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Scrumptious Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are one of my favorite things to make with the kids! It's tradition to make them for a few different Holidays including Valentine's Day. While decorating is the usually the main purpose in making these, over the years I have tweaked the cookie recipe and frosting to make them absolutely scrumptious as well! So much yummier that buying a store-bought mix and canned frosting.  I would even be so bold as to say I think they are every bit as good, if not better, than Swig and Crumble! Give them a try and see if you agree.   My Scrumptious Sugar Cookie Frosting is an ultra creamy, cream cheese frosting with a few extra additions that put it over the top! Sour Cream adds to the creaminess and takes the sweetness down a notch.  The frosting is still plenty sweet but not sickeningly so.  Butter Vanilla Emulsion is my other secret weapon that really elevates the flavor of this frosting! It can be found on Amazon, or in a craft store like Michaels,  but...
