Sweet Mummy Cookies




Finally recovering from one of my most stressful and eventful weekends. Surprisingly, after all the cursing and faint whimpers here and there I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. My friends and family who witnessed me at my worst would probably call me crazy. Problem is it just felt too damn good seeing all those desserts all set out. It made me forget all the mayhem I had just been through the past month.

Banana Walnut "Muffin" Cookies

Banana, walnuts, and chocolate chips
all in one cookie!



So ran into a little dilemma with this recipe? Well many actually but the most important was…What the heck did I just bake?! 

It started off as a cookie but after coworkers gave them a try it became a muffin top. It's got the shape and all the normal baking ingredients and steps of a cookie. But it's got a soft and airy texture that you can't help compare  to that first bite of a perfect morning banana nut muffin. Without the crumbly mess. That muffin and coffee was my idea of a perfect breakfast. Well that and Bill-Miller tacos. Just ask my roommate. Better yet any of my past classmates who saw me run in past ten with a Starbucks or Bill Miller cup in my hand all thru college.

Now back to the matter at hand. Could it possibly be a little of both with a hint of "pretty damn delicious"? I blame the ripe bananas for that soft texture and sweet smell.  Haven't figured it out just yet but glad about whatever screw up I did when I bit into these cookies…muffins…uh I let you decide.

Almond Joy Double Chocolate Cookies




Whoever came up with the idea that Almond Joy and coffee are a perfect match is a genius. It so delicious that next cake I’m throwing an Almond Joy in there. Maybe three.

Following day I packed my ingredients and headed over to mom’s kitchen ready to take my family’s taste buds on a little island vacation. With the recent birthday I had just celebrated, cake and I were on a much needed break. Cookies felt like the way to go for a nice little tropical snack.

Prep: 20 to 25 mins
Bake: 12 to 15 minutes
