Cookie Score :)

I came across a recipe this weekend that I tried and have fallen in love with.  I have a love for craisins.  I love their tartness and the kids love them as well.  I notice a recipe on the back of the bag that I thought was worth trying.  After the big taste test....they are kid approved at our house and will definitely be made again. 
They are super easy!

Hope you give them a try....enjoy :)

Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chunk Cookies 

2/3 cup butter of margarine, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teas. baking soda
1/2 teas. salt
1  6 oz. (1 1/4 cups) package dried cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chunks or chips

Preheat oven to 375*  Using an electric mixer, beat butter or margarine and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy.  Add eggs, mixing well.  Combine oats, flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate mixing bowl.  Add to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each addition.  Stir in cranberries and white chocolate chunks.  Drop by rounded teas. onto ungreased cookie sheets.   Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.  Makes approx. 2 1/2 dozen.
* I always line my cookie sheet with parchment paper and the cookies never stick :)
*Next time I am going to try semi-sweet Chocolate chips in place of the white chocolate chips for fun :)

I am a push over for chocolate.... any kind of chocolate. I came across this recipe the other day and it brought back sweet memories. My Momma made these all the time when I was growing up. I made a batch last Saturday and they were all gone by Sunday! They are so fast and easy to make so I thought I would share it with you, my bloggy friends!

No Bake Chocolate-Oatmeal Cookies

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups sugar

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 tsp. vanilla

3 cups rolled or old-fashioned oats (not instant)

In a medium heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine cocoa, sugar, butter and milk. Bring to a rolling boil and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and add peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until creamy. Then stir in the oats until well combined.

Drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Let the cookies cool until set. Makes about 40 small or 24 large cookies.

If you have never tried these before, I hope you will..... they are yummy!
