The Virtual Cookie Exchange-Show and Tell Time!

Good Morning Apron Goddesses. It's cookie time!! And it's simple. You make a cookie and share it here by putting your name on the Mr. Linky at the bottom of this post! Be sure to post ingredients, cooking directions and any special tricks to make the cookies on your blog...

This is the Spellbinder cookie that I made, pictured below, while wearing my rooster and eggs apron. I found this cookie recipe at my friend Lesley's blog, Will Write For Food Slimfast Bars and Lean Cuisines.


It looks like a simple brown cookie with frosting, but let me assure you it is much, much more. Once you eat one, you will have to have two, then three, then four, and then you will have to lock these cookies away or you will eat the whole batch.

They are that addictive.

So why would you want to make these?

To torture those people you love. Why else??

Here's the recipe:

Spellbinders

Ingredients
1.5 C Flour
1.5 tspn. baking powder
1 tspn. soda
0.5 tspn. salt
1 C brown sugar
1 C butter
1 egg
1 C oats
1 C coconut
1 C chopped pecans
0.5 C crushed cornflakes

Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt. Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add egg and beat. Gradually mix in dry ingredients. Stir in oats, nuts, coconut, and cornflakes.

Spoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with bottom of a glass cup and put crushed cornflakes on top and smash them into the cookie.

Bake for 12-15 minutes at 350.

After these cookies cool, you may choose to frost them with this:

Frosting
4 T. melted butter
2 T. hot water
1 t. vanilla
2 C powdered sugar

There are some lucky folks in my reality cookie exchange cause they're getting a dozen of these in a tin to take home and horde for themselves...

Enjoy!!

What are you going to make?

Cookie Exchange - Virtual Style

It's that time of year....time to break out the apron and start baking cookies. I tend to go overboard with the cookies this time of year. In fact I make cookies for Santa, family, and participate in a cookie exchange. I even go as far as making "Cookies in a Jar" for the teachers. Whether you bake for friends, family, or just Santa we want to know what you are baking in your kitchen.

In 2 weeks time, December 17, Mr. Linky will be available for all who wish to participate. Here is what you get to do, bake a batch of cookies, post it and link up that post with Mr. Linky. Show us what you have and leave a recipe so the rest of us can try it out.

Happy Baking!
