Good morning and happy Saturday!  I found these the other day and really wanted to share them with you.  I have not made them yet, but really NEED to.  That’s right, I NEED to.  This recipe marries two of the greatest cookies of all time into one… pure bliss.  My husband and I have “cookies ‘n milk” every single night after dinner… No joke.  Ron will tell you otherwise, because he is a bit embarrassed that we do it.  He’s trying to cut his weight a bit for an upcoming judo competition, so you probably won’t hear him admit this anytime soon.  It is our weakness.  We usually eat Oreo’s and milk most nights, but when we have others in the house, like mom’s chocolate chip cookies, we will gladly eat those too!

It’s a sick sick addiction that we’ve created, but it’s become a tradtion in our home.  We’ve been doing it for years now.  Anyhoo, check these tantalizing Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies out and the full recipe over at Very Culinary right now!

Some friends of mine gave me one of these Strawberry Cupcakes from Tee&Cakes for my birthday last year and it was AMAZINGLY delicious!  Next time that you’re in Boulder, CO be sure to drop by and visist them!

This Chocolate Beacon Cupckae from Tee&Cakes was featured on FoodNetwork and I hear it’s fabulous!  I haven’t had the pleasure of trying it yet, but maybe I can treat a friend for their Birthday soon?!

I talked to my grandma today and she wanted to make a Cream/Jelly Roll but couldn’t find her recipe for that special batter.  My grandpa found a recipe on the Food Network website, but as you might know, it can be a very slow loading site…  So, I decided to look around and see what I could find.  I found several recipes that looked like they might work for her, but this POM Cream-Filled Chocolate Roll stood out to me in particular because it’s something that I’ve never seen before!  I had to share it with you for this weeks Humpday Tutorial.  If you try it (and I hope you will), please let me know how you like it!  I’d love to hear.  Pomegranates + Chocolate + Cream filling = Perfection!  Pomegranates are full of great antioxidants and you mix that with chocolate, so you get a win-win situation.  Enjoy!  And have a Happy Thanksgiving!

As you know, it’s Humpday Tutorial time and in honor of Veterans’ Day and the upcoming Holiday Season, I thought a cookie recipe would be great!  Now, this is not just any cookie recipe, it’s a HEALTHY Brown Sugar Almond Star recipe from Heart Healthy Living!!

This recipe makes about 36 (3-inch) cookies and only takes approximately 6 minutes to bake each batch!  Easy-peezy!  You can decorate them however you want and with whatever you want, be creative.  We do a Cookie Swap each year (this will be our 4th Annual) and this would be a great recipe for that too!  So grab your apron and your bakeware and make these great cookies today!

What a fabulous way to celebrate a special occasion.
