The best Cookie & Cream cookie recipe

Hi Friends,

Today I'm sharing one of my families all time favorite, go to delicious desert recipes. My kids love a warm cookie that's fresh from the oven as much as anyone but this special recipe for cookie & cream cookies is one of their most requested cookies any day of the week ;)

My hubby isn't a huge chocolate fan so chocolate chip cookies area rarity in our home. The first time I tried this recipe my family was in cookie heaven and I knew we had found a winner. I'm sure it will quickly become one of your favorite go to desert recipes as well. :)

Recipe:

** Preheat oven to 350 degrees

* 1 cup butter, softened

* 1/2 cup brown sugar

* 1/2 cup sugar

* 1 (4.2oz) package of Oreo Cookies & Cream pudding mix

* 2 large eggs

* 1 tsp. vanilla extract (I love to use my homemade pure vanilla extract)

* 2 1/4 cups flour (I use organic unbleached flour, but any all purpose flour will work)

* 1 tsp. baking soda

* 1 cup white chocolate chips

* 15 Oreo cookies coarsely crushed (big chunks)

1) Using a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugars together.

2) Add in pudding mix & mix until well blended.

3) Add egg, vanilla and mix well.

4) Add the blour & baking soda and continue mixing.

5) Stir in white chocolate chips (could use chocolate chips if preferred) & Oreo

cookie chunks.

6) Drop cookies by rounded teaspoonfuls (can use a cookie scoop) onto a greased cookie sheet.

** Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly golden on top and slightly soft to touch. Remove from pan and place on cooling rack to set/firm (or enjoy right out of the oven while they are warm) 😊

*Yields 2 dozen give or take depending on how large you make your cookies

These cookies are a great crowd pleaser and have always been a huge hit at any gathering I've brought them to. * They also freeze well and are great as a frozen treat :)

Happy baking friends!

Shredded Chicken & Cheese English Muffin Breakfast Bake

HI Friends, Happy Holidays!! This year for our Christmas morning brunch I tried out this new recipe and it was a huge hit with the fam so I just had to share it with you :) I'm loving that this recipe can be made ahead of time (which is great for a holiday meal) and stored overnight in the fridge to save prep time the day you intend to bake it. This year I coupled this with my yummy Cinnamon Roll French Toast Breakfast Bake (recipe link here: Cinnamon Roll French Toast Breakfast Bake ) for a hearty breakfast. We ate around 11:30am and still haven't been hungry for much other than a snack of fruit & veggies and it's 6:30pm! It held us all day and we are just getting ready to eat a lite dinner while we watch some Christmas movies :) Hope your family enjoys it as much as mine did! :) INGREDIENTS: 8 English muffins sliced into 1 inch cubes 16 oz shredded chicken or diced cooked ham 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 8 large eggs 2 cups heavy whipping cre...
