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!

Plantations of Charleston, Part II: Middleton Place

  Middleton Place: part II of "Plantations of Charleston" series Our tour of Middleton Place, a 320 year old rice plantation began just shortly after our tour of Drayton Hall (if you missed that post click the link here:  https://thishomeschoolerslife.blogspot.com/2021/07/how-to-have-perfect-day-touring.html ).  Middleton Place sits on 110 acers along the Ashley river  and is home to 65 of America's oldest landscaped gardens, historic plantation home, stables and an organic farm. Immediately upon arrival you'll feel like you've been transported to the English countryside. A large stately home (all that is left after Union troops burnt the North flanker and original home during the Civil War) surrounded by vast open green spaces, free roaming livestock wandering about, massive oaks in the distance ready to offer a reprieve on a hot sunny day are waiting to greet you and lend to the iconic atmosphere that is felt the moment you first step foot on the grounds.  One...

It is super easy and adaptable, you can whip it up in a snap while catering to your families health needs/preferences and individual tastes :)  What I love most is that I can prep multiple dishes all at once, one for tonight and one for later in the week or to pop in the freezer for a night I am short on time and but want to provide a homecooked meal for my family (double bonus🙌).  First start with gathering all your ingredients:  -Tortillas: Either store bought or homemade ( I love to use flat out brand, 5 grain fold it tortilla's (healthier version) or Mission whole wheat or flour tortillas (my kiddos prefer these as they are a bit softer and less chewy texture).  -Meat: Chicken (or any other meat could be substituted. *I also love to use ground elk or organic grass fed ground beef, both are equally delicious) -Rice: Basmati...
