Howdy Y'all!!!
This afternoon was one of those days were I wanted any excuse to not study for my test I have at nine tomorrow morning. I know that sounds awful, but its true. Thanks to Pintrest (the procrastinators dream/nightmare) I found my distraction. What could be better than super chocolatey and gooey...nothing you say? False...add some caramel and sea salt and then it is truly heaven. I also made one for my roomie, needless to say she ate it without me having to twist her arm too much.
I got the recipe here and really didn't change the ingredients other than the addition of caramels and sea salt. The caramels made the dough larger and over all the cookie larger. YUM!
All in all the cookie ended up being larger than my hand. It was rich, moist, and wonderful. This is definitely a keeper recipe. Easy, no equipment other than bowls, a fork, and measuring utensils. Very wonderful.
On the days when you are avoiding doing something, what do you do?
Happy eatings,

Happy Wednesday!
Weekend is almost here and a week until I get to go home for Thanksgiving!!! :) I have been feeling under the weather lately (my guess is a neurobiology stress induced cold) and needed something to cheer up my insides. Something sweet, chocolatey, nutella-y. So it was decided. Thanks to pintrest and a tweaked family recipe and heaven!
I found the cookie recipe here. Very happy, just make sure to use a half cup of butter not a half stick of butter...doesn't come together right. Easy fix. I tweaked my grandmothers frosting and added nutella. YUMMM!!!!
It was even roommate tested and approved. The frosting is creamy and the cookie was dense and slightly crispy on the outside. Wonderful pick-me-up!
Sorry I didn't do my normal pics along the way. Next time I will.
Happy Eatings,
Smashley
