It’s Impossible Not To Love These Cookies!

If you love cookies and pecan pie, you will adore this cookie – it’s basically both rolled into one! The cookie part is tender, buttery and a perfect vessel for the gooey pecan filling.

These will be great to serve during the holiday if pie making isn’t your thing. There’s a little prep time for chilling, but overall this is an easy recipe. Plus, once you take your first bite out of one of these darling little cookies you’ll be glad you took the time to make them.

I am a huge fan of pecan pie but my youngest son has a tree nut allergy. So, we usually don’t have pies and other desserts containing tree nuts in our house. Now, that he is older he knows he can’t have these things because they will hurt him so it is a wee bit easier to make a dessert such as a pecan cookie and keep them away from him. My son would never touch them anyway 🙂 I hope you enjoy these pecan pie cookies as much as I do!

Try These Homemade Chocolate-Covered Marshmallows And You Won’t Go Back To The Candy Aisle Again!

I was a girl scout so I know all there is to know about different marshmallow brands, their consistency, sweetness and stickiness. I especially know which ones burn very easily! When you spend so many nights sitting by the campfire, these things become essential, haha!

Still, after all those years of marshmallow experience and expertise, I had never tried making marshmallows at home. Not until my friend served them at a party; these little pieces of heaven looked way too yummy to skip! I thought it would be a massive operation, and a very difficult one, to try and create homemade marshmallows.

It did take some time (especially because I got a little carried away and wanted to cut all kinds of different shaped marshmallows), but the process itself was surprisingly simple! And when you finally sink your teeth into these, with all that delicious chocolate on top… I don’t think I’ll ever be able to enjoy another store-bought marshmallow again.

On the other hand, I won’t put these anywhere near fire, either! They’re way too pretty for that!

Chocolate.  It’s like Kryptonite to some folks.  Throw in a little caramel, and people will lose their heads with the yum factor.  Snack on these with your favorite tea or coffee, for a perfect afternoon snack, or after dinner dessert.

This recipe makes about 24 bars, and is ready under an hour, so it’s easy to make and easy to share.  Top it off with a squirt of whip cream, and this dish is truly a dream.
