Make the dough for whichever sounds good, or both! And a big bar of the Hersheys Cookies and Cream chocolate bar. Break the bar into the squares. Use 1/2-1 square to shape the cookie dough around it. Bake at 350* until golden brown on the outside.

Sounds sooo yummy right now!

Awesome Sandwich: BAAT (heheehe..BAAT)

Recipe to think on for now:

Mix 1 avocado with 1/2 cup mayo
4 slices of cooked bacon
5 pieces of arugala
2-4 slices of bacon
2 pieces of toasted bread

I prefer to toast the bread in the oven, then one side is still soft. Smash the avocado and mix in the mayo, spread over the bread and layer up the bacon, tomato and arugala.
For those that don't like avocado, you have to try this at least one time. I have had many that tried it and I didn't tell them avocado was in it and they loved it. They were shocked when I told them

Another Blog by me!

I created a blog for my photography. If you would like to see it, the link is below. Mind you, I have added the really good ones, the bad ones and some eh so/so ones.
The point of the photography blog is to show what I am learning and that I am trying to become a photographer. I focus mainly on nature, food and my children. Although, I have been doing some personal photos for friends, it really helps me with learning new techniques. And I would like to learn all aspects of photography, not just food photography. If any of you are photographers and want to share some wisdom, or tell me what you think of my photos, I welcome it!

8 chicken tenders

Sugar Tit Recipe

Now there are many different things that people think that this is. For me my mom called sugar tits the left over bits of pie crust baked with sugar, sugar tits.
We loved them! This is a variation of my own way. You can do it the traditional way and wait until you bake a pie and use the left over bits of crust or use the recipe I have concocted :)

Chicken Queso

I think that this weekend I am going to work on making a cream cheese based chicken queso dip! Sounds sooo yummy! And I also want to do something with bacon and cupcakes! Sounds pretty good. I will try to be a little healthy on the bacon and use turkey bacon.

Have a wonderful long weekend everyone!

Chocolate Chip Swirl Cookie recipe

I came up with this for a friends birthday. Need to make some more!

3 sticks of butter
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups self-rising flour
1 tablespoon of vanilla
2 pkgs ghirardelli chocolate chips 60% Cocoa (I chose these because the chips are larger)
1 pkg of melted unsweetened chocolate (Nestle Pre-Melted)

Cream the butter and sugar, add the eggs and mix until thick and smooth. Next mix in the vanilla. Slowly add the sugar, once combined add the chocolate chips. Slowly add the melted chocolate and lightly fold it so it doesn't fully mix and looks "swirly"
Bake at 350* for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.

Super buttery and flaky. After they have cooled microwaving them before eating makes it sooo delicious and less crunchy.

The Teriyaki Steak sandwiches

The Teriyaki Steak sandwiches were amazing! I don't have a picture they were devoured too quickly but here is the recipe. I didn't find my pineapple juice so I substituted with orange juice, worked just fine.

1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (I use kikoman, shoyu is good)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon of worcestshire sauce
3/4 cup orange juice (pineapple juice is best, apple is good with chicken)
1/4 cup of agave (better for you than sugar but if you don't have it use brown sugar)
3 cloves of garlic, smashed and finely chopped
2 tablespoons of fresh ginger root, finely diced (cut off a piece, cut off the "bark" and use the yellowish white insides)
