Meal Deal

Hey Everyone! Just to let you know I have decided to add on to my blog. Alyssa and I enjoy coming up with new meals and making them for other people. So far we have made meals for our aunts, uncles, and grandparents. We actually started this little "tradition" of ours spring break last year. Here's how it goes. We call and make sure they are available that night. We come up with a new recipe we want to try, actually you get the whole meal, we make your main course, sides, AND dessert! So we make a list of possible ingredients, you can get them yourself, or even better, we will come with you to do the shopping. Then of course, we come to your house and prepare the meal. We serve it, eat with you, and even clean up after ourselves. Yep, dishes and all! We have so much fun doing this and have decided that we want to blog about it. So from now on we will blog all of the stuff we make, unless of course it is a secret recipe only we can make for you :) I'm thinking this will be lots of fun. So when we post one of our special meals it will go under the label "Meal Deal" so that you can find it easy. You are more than welcome to share this blog with your friends and family... The more the marrier!!

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!!!!

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!!!
