So, lately I have been super busy with YAC, school and work so I haven't had a ton of time to bake. However, I have made some pretty delish cookies. First it was the usual- chocolate chip for a YAC event. Then I made these pumpkin spice cookies (below) which were SO good. They looked better iced, but by the time I thought to take a picture they had all been eaten. That's how good they were.
Then on Saturday night I was browsing foodgawker and found a 3 ingredient recipe for nutella cookies. First off, let me just explain how much I LOVE nutella. It was a slowly acquired love. I tried it at first and didn't care for it but it has grown into a full obsession. I ate a whole bag of granny smith apples- sliced and dipped in nutella in the past week. LOVE it.
So, Sunday morning I woke up early (unintentionally) and was dressed for church by 9... but I didn't have to be there until 11. I remembered the recipe and grabbed my 3 ingredients:
1 c flour
1 c nutella
1 lg egg
and whipped it up. It was so simple, I could hardly believe it. So I popped them in the oven (at 350') for 8 minutes and voila! They were done! I let them cool, sprinkled a little powdered sugar on them and they were finished. Now, let me warn you. These cookies taste just like nutella, so they kind of have the taste of dry chocolate. I spread a little nutella on top of the ones I ate though which I thought made them 200% better. But all in all they were great for such a simple recipe. Unfortunately, they too were gone before I had the chance to take a picture. (I'm going to have to practice a little more self restraint if I'm going to keep up with this!)
Check out these super cute pink boxes I got at Mary Carter bake supply store! It is dangerous to go in there. I went in for sprinkles and came out with cupcake liners, sprinkles, candy melts, 6 pink boxes, and a sunflower candy mold (which I'm going to use to put on top of my pumpkin cupcakes- so excited!)
On a side note, I was at Tjmaxx the other day and while waiting in line I saw a GOOSE CREEK candle! I thought to myself, "Goose creek... now how do I know that name..." Then I remembered.
This Glozell video. I love her. So, I bought it. Ok, actually it was because it smelled like pumpkin pie. Either way. Seestor loved it.
