Chocolate orange shortbread cookies

"Feast of Saint Valentine"

It’s time for some cookies, once again I am using my favorite flavor combination of chocolate and orange. My sister is probably going to be very annoyed when she sees this recipe because she is the shortbread cookie queen. But hopefully she will go make these and enjoy them and get over her annoyance real fast. Crunch, buttery, sweet cookies with an orange flavor dipped in chocolate.

Dark Chocolate Chip coffee cookies

 

"Feast of Saint Valentine"

Sweet chewy and chocolaty with hints of coffee undertones; that’s the next chocolate recipe today. There always seems to be an endless array of cookie flavors to choose from. I always try to do a spin on my classic chewy chocolate chip oatmeal cookies whenever I can. This year we welcome the addition of coffee and dark chocolate. It adds an absolute punch to the chewy sweet cookie.

Oreo vanilla Mint

Call me the Dairy Queen 

It’s Friday and FINALLY, the end of ice-cream month. This has been the longest month of my life and if I never see a box of heavy cream for the next 6 months I’ll be just fine. Today we have a super delicious creamy, perfect scoop of mint, cream and cookies. Its cookie and cream 2.0

Brownie cookies

"Feast of Saint Valentine"

I have made quite a few cookies, but this one right here?....arguably the best cookies I have ever made in my life. It’s no secret that I love my cookies chewy. Not thin, not crispy, not big, but thick and chewy.  Last year I tweaked Alton browns cookie recipe and came up with a superb chocolate chip oatmeal cookie. This years cookie just might have beaten the superstar of last year’s chocolate month. It is divine, if you love chocolate, or cookies you must attempt to make these!

Cookie 'n' cream icecream cake

Cake Cake Cake...

As the years go by it seems that there is less and less cookie in an actual cookie and cream ice-cream, blame it on the economy. The cookie has always been the best part of that ice-cream flavor for me. What I began to do, rather than a ready-made cookie and cream ice-cream, I would go to a done to order cold stone or froyo joint, where I can add as much cookies as I would like. But sometimes you don’t want to wait in line, you want to open your freezer and have it your way. And as we know there is no better way to remedy culinary shortcomings by making the dish in question yourself. So I attempted to create a cookie and cream ice-cream with an overload of cookies…just the way I like it.

Christmas Candy Crush Cookies

"Christmas is coming"

Here I am yet again with another baked item despite the fact that I hate to bake. This cookie dough really did stress me out quite a bit, but it turned out great in the end.  I could never have done Christmas recipes without at least attempting a gingerbread cookie. These babies are actually a cross between a short bread and ginger bread cookie. Very high fat content makes it nice and crumbly, with the sweetness and ginger undertones.
