Inception Cookies

I found this recipe on Pinterest.... ya, i'm kind of an addict :) They take longer than the average cookie, but thats because they are NOT your average cookie!!!!

Inception Cookies

2 sticks (1 cup) softened butter
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oz bag chocolate chips
1 pkg. Oreo cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cream butter and sugars together with a mixer until well combined.  Beat in eggs and vanilla.

In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda.  Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.  Using a cookie scoop take one scoop of cookie dough and place on top of an Oreo Cookie.  Take another scoop of dough and place on bottom of Oreo cookie.  Seal edges together by pressing and cupping in hand until Oreo cookie is enclosed with dough.  Place onto a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet and bake cookies 9-13 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Enjoy!!!

Pumkin Pie Shake

Last week I had to run over to Vernal for an orthodontist appointment. For lunch my mom and I stopped by Sonic to get lunch. I got this Pumpkin Pie Shake. It was the best thing I have ever tasted... yep, it was that good. I tried to mimic it and it didn't worked out how I hoped, but it wasn't a complete fail. I put in 1/2 cup of pumpkin.. but it was too much for me. I would do 1/4 cup next time, it depends on how much pumpkin taste you want. Here's my recipe, but if you ever go to Sonic, I HIGHLY recommend the Pumpkin Pie Shake!

1 1/2 c crushed graham crackers

1/4 c melted butter

2 TBS brown sugar
Combine all ingredients.
Shake:

12 scoops vanilla ice cream

1 tsp nutmeg... (AHHH I forgot to add it)

1/4 c canned pumpkin

3/4-1 c crumbs
Whipped Topping (I made my own with whipping cream and sugar!)
Put all ingredients exept for whipped topping and some crumbs for the top in a blender. Mix until well blended. Pour into cups and top with whipped topping and crumbs. Makes about 4 servings.
