Chocolate Pudding Cake With Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting

February 29, 2012 0 comments

Boxed store brand cake mixes are good but you can make them even better by adjusting the ingredients just a bit.  By tweaking it a little it makes the cake super moist.  I always get a bunch of compliments  and people are surprised that it’s just a simple doctored up cake mix. I made this chocolate cake for hubs on Valentines Day; hence the red, white and pink M&M’s on top.  The cake is so [...]

Mint Oreo Truffle Pops

If you like Cool Mint Oreos and chocolate, you’ll love these!  Basically they are Oreo crumbs mixed with a bit of cream cheese and dipped in white chocolate.  And they are yummy! The centers end up moist, minty and fudge like.  And the white chocolate on the outside is nice and creamy without being too sweet or sugary.  So much fun to eat, just pop them in your mouth and go. Mint Oreo Truffle Pops [...]

Chocolate Mint Kiss Cookies

December 24, 2011 0 comments

Hershey’s mint truffle kisses are dark chocolate candies filled with mint truffle cream.  I wanted to use these in a cookie this year but wanted to make sure it was some sort of chocolate cookie base.  I found a chocolate cookie recipe that looked more like a brownie consistency and used that. The mint truffle kiss candies are pretty minty so I didn’t add any mint extract into the chocolate cookie dough.  But if you [...]

These oatmeal cookies are loaded with dried cranberries and white chocolate chips.  They smelled like heaven when they were baking, mmm!  They’re soft and a little bit tart from the cranberries.  But don’t worry, the white chocolate chips mellow the tartness out nicely.  So good! Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies from OceanSpray Ingredients: 2/3 cup butter, room temp 2/3 cup brown sugar 2 eggs 1 & 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats 1 & 1/2 cups flour [...]

Rolo brownie bites

Rolo Brownie Bites

This quick snack recipe is a super simple way to dress up any boring store bought brownie mix.  In around 30 minutes you’ll have about a dozen and a half rich chocolate brownie bites with a caramel center. I really like the added sweetness that the chocolate caramel candy gives to the brownies.  The Rolos do not melt completely so you’re left with a nice solid surprise center.  Plus they’re bite sized and easily hand [...]

Chocolate Whoopie Pies

October 18, 2011 4 comments

I really can’t see why anyone would dislike whoopie pies.  They’re basically hand held pieces of cake.  These particular whoopie pies are made with a devil’s food cake mix and icing made with marshmallow cream.  Yum! The cake tops turned out super soft and moist.  Which kinda made them harder to eat but that’s half the fun.  The messier the better I say, it usually means you’re eating something delicious if you’re willing to be [...]

Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brr, it’s starting to look like fall around these parts.  While I am ready for cooler weather, I am not looking forward to snow.  I wish fall could stick around for several months.  I like that mix of semi-warm days and cooler evenings.  When it gets to colder days and colder nights, that’s when I start to cringe.  Cause I know daylight savings time is coming and bringing snow with it. The cooler weather is [...]
