Congratulations! You've made it half of the way through the week! Of course, the only appropriate way to celebrate is with a batch of fresh-baked Cookies 'n Cream Cookies! Am I right? I knew you'd agree. 😉
I made an awesome cookie recipe for you to bake today to help you get through the rest of the week!
This recipe is made suuuuper easy using these new Hershey's baking chips which make the perfect dark chocolate cookie to creamy white chocolate ratio with a classic chocolate chip cookie dough (minus the chocolate chips) as their vehicle. Super easy & super tasty!
Silliness aside, let's talk about some more important matters.
I haven't really posted much this month due to lack of motivation and general January blues. Also, on a more personal note, my Grandma passed away last Monday so we were in Manitoba last week for her funeral. I will miss Grandma very much but I also rejoice that she is now free from pain and with Jesus her Savior in heaven. This verse has really given me hope in this time: But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. ~ 1 Thessalonians 4:13
I have all kinds of exciting recipe ideas for next month and into the spring and summer. So, lots to look forward to!
