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.

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.

These pecan thumbprint cookies turned out so cute and they were really easy to make.  The recipe calls for a handful of basic ingredients and literally only took maybe 15 minutes to make the dough. It doesn’t make a large batch though, I only got close to about 2 dozen cookies.  I filled the thumbprints with just some basic frosting but you could use whatever you please.

Super Soft Frosted Sugar Cookies

I happened to come across this recipe that mentions that these were very close to [...]

If you like a good gingersnap cookie that won’t bust your teeth into pieces, this cookie is for you.  These gingersnap cookies are so soft!  They’ve also got a great ginger and molasses taste.  I’d call these dangerous cookies cause it will be hard to eat just one!

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!
