CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE BARS

Just tried this recipe last night and it came out pretty good!

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup peanut butter
7 ounces (half can) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups Chocolate Chips

DIRECTIONS:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Great a 13x9 baking dish with cooking spray or line with parchment.
Cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed butter and mix until well combined.
Spread the cookie dough into the prepared pan.
In a small saucepan over low heat whisk together the condensed milk and peanut butter until melted and combined. Pour the mixture evenly over the cookie dough and use a butter knife to swirl the mixture throughout the cookie dough.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the dough is lightly browned and cooked through. Remove from the oven and pour the chocolate chips in an even layer over the cookie bars. Let sit for five minutes before smoothing out the chips with an off-set spatula.

Yummiest ever Double Fudge Nutella Cookies!

Okay, so I know there are LOADS of Nutella cookies' recipes out there, but this is the easiest and yummiest (read super-goeey and fudgy-like-you-can't-even-imagine yummy!). Try them. You'll eat the whole batch yourself! (that's what I did!!)

Double Fudge Nutella Cookies

ingredients:
1/2 cup + 1 tbsp all purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup of Nutella
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
2-3 Oreo cookies (roughly crushed)

directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Combine flour, egg and Nutella in a large bowl and mix together with a spoon until dough comes together and no flour lumps remain. Stir in chocolate chips and Oreos until evenly mixed into the dough.
2. Make dough balls, about 1 1/2 inch in diameter. Place on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Press down slightly on dough so the dough balls are more like very very thick round disks rather than perfectly round balls. Smooth edges that may have cracked from the pressure of pushing down on the balls, so that you have thick round smooth disks.
3. Bake for about 10 minutes. Cookies should be mostly set, but might be slightly still soft in the middle. Let cookies cool on rack until completely set. Enjoy while still slightly warm or after completely cooled.

Cheesy onion bread!!!!

I bet I can eat a whole loaf by myself!

Ingredients

1 loaf sourdough bread, unsliced
12-16 ounces thinly sliced Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup finely diced green onions
1 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Cut the bread lengthwise and then widthwise without cutting into the bottom of the bread. This is pretty simple going one direction, but when you switch directions it gets a bit tougher. Just hold the bread tightly and do your best.
Place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place the cheese slices between the cuts of bread. Really fill in the bread with as much cheese as you can fit.
Combine butter, green onions, garlic powder, and Parmesan cheese. Pour evenly over the bread.
Cover the bread with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover the bread and bake for 10 minutes longer. Serve warm! Or cold. It's amazing either way.
