We are a cookie family. Most nights, Tom has just one cookie after the day is done. That is how much discipline he has - he just eats one, with a glass of milk, over the kitchen sink so he doesn't get any crumbs on the floor. Me, on the other hand, can eat five or six in one sitting for breakfast! I have no control when there is a good cookie on the hand. I've tried sending them to work with Tom, but he doesn't want to eat them in the middle of the day. I've tried giving them to piano students and neighbors. Christmas time is hard - so . . . I'll spend extra time with my treadmill and we'll make it through this season.

Kim, at Newlywoodwards, is having a Dare to DIY Blog party and this is not the week miss! It's an bloggy cookie swap!
We have so many cookies that we love; it's hard to narrow it down. But, if I must, this is a favorite and always goes quickly. I've passed on the recipe so many times, I've lost count.

These look so good - and gluten free? The family I grew up babysitting for just had a daughter diagnosed with Celiac, so I'm always looking for new treats I can take over to their house.
MMMM they look good! Like you, I have absolutely NO control with cookies - esp. home-baked. They go stale before the family finishes them and I just cannot allow that to happen (and it's not as if we don't have a freezer!) So I bake a Christmas time and that's about it. Have to give these a try!
YUM~ NEVER heard of them, I may have to try. I made magic cookie bars yesteday night... and have felt fat for so long.. Thanksgiving didn't help.. anyhoo, I made some mcb last night and have eaten 3 today. I have no control either.. count yourself lucky for having a treadmill. I totally eat my cookies over the sink..I don't like me some crumbs.. but the ants do. ;)
Wow! Those look amazing!! I will most certainly be trying those out. Thanks for another great idea!
Hi Laurel, I'm your newest blog stalker. Hope you're doing well, I love your blog! Jill
I can't wait to try this recipe...and eat them! They look so good.
Ooohhh...these sound fabulous! I just might have to give these a try this week! And no worries...I'm a sit down and eat 6 at a time girl, too! ;o) ~mary~
Oh My! These sound so good. I'm glad I'm grocery shopping tomorrow so I can get what I need to make these.
Yum! I've been looking for a new cookie recipe to make this year! This will be perfect!
Those sound delicious but I just don't make cookies anymore because I have no self control at ALL!!!
Sounds like a great recipe! Love the pics! Thanks for sharing!
Yummy - those look delicious! I am going to have to make them for sure!!!
XOXO

Those do look so good. I have no willpower either... and I also dont get on a treadmill. Not a good combo. =)
I'm going to have to try this one. I'm a sucker for white chocolate chips in a cookie!!
I'm with you, I'm home sick today and I've eaten four of my dyi cookies already. opps. :) I'm telling myself they make my throat feel better because they are thick and gooey.
These sounds soooo yummie! thanks for the recipe! now, just need to find some time to bake!
OMG ... I am now going to starve if I don't make cookies NOW.
That is why I don't bake:-)
Those look absolutely divine. I am such a sucker for orange dream bars...
These sound different and delicious. A great addition to a holiday tray made small and drizzled with dark chocolate. Oh yum. Or just like that! Thank you.
Yum Yum! I gotta copy this recipe and try it out.
I just tried these and they are divine! DH made the mistake of giving DD (13 months) a try and now she's freaking out because we wont give her more. Thank you so much for sharing!
Oooh, they look wonderful! Anything with orange zest in it gets a thumbs up from me. I'm going to give them a try. :)
