Everything But The Kitchen Sink Cookies

For lack of a better name, these cookies really do have just about everything in them. I was in the mood for something super sweet and full of flavor. I have to come clean...I am a flavor junkie! Seriously the stronger the better. I tend to have a heavy hand in anything I am cooking or baking. These cookies were just right. Here's your line up...


The only difference being that you need to use Baking Soda NOT Baking Powder. Next you most definitely need to go find some helpers..



Are they not the CUTEST!!!! The stash binky is compliments of Peggy. Maybe we can get her to do a free printable template on here (hint hint)!


After you finish mixing scooping and baking you end up with these delectible chewy bites...


Everything but the kitchen sink cookies

2 1/4 cups flour
2tsp baking soda
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup white chocolate chips, halved
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, halved
1 cup toffee bits
1 cup chewy caramel, roughly chopped
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 cup pecans, roughly chopped

Preheat oven t0 375. Mix flour and baking soda in a separate bowl. Combine 3/4 cup butter and sugars in your mixer and beat until creamy. In a double broiler melt 1/8 cup butter with 1/2 cup white chocolate chips. Add to sugar and butter mixture. Repeat with 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips and add to mixer. While mixer is on low add the eggs and vanilla. Continue to mix and slowly add your flour and baking soda until combined. Add all of your extras i.e. toffee bits, caramel, marshmallows, pecans. Scoop onto greased baking sheet and bake 9-11 minutes.
ENJOY

Super Yummy Frosting Recipe

1 container cool-whip
1 8oz cream cheese
powder sugar to taste
1tsp strawberry extract (optional)

Throw everything into your mixer and let it go. I find that the longer you mix the lighter your frosting is. I ended up putting about 2 cups of powder sugar in mine. You can flavor yours any way you want, also is pretty dang good if you add some mashed up strawberries.

The cake is my signature Texas Fudge Cake. Its SUPER moist and DeLiCiOuS. Easy and quick too.

Texas Fudge Cake

Bring to boil: 1 cup margarine, 4 tbsp. cocoa powder, 1 cup water

Pour over: 2 cups flour, 2 cups sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt

Mix well and then add: 2 eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 tsp. baking soda and 1 tsp. vanilla

Mix well and pour into greased 9x13 pan (or cupcake pan OR bunt pan, basically anything you want). Bake at 375 for 30 min or until wooden skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
