Delight in Every Slice: Delicious Blueberry Cake with Mascarpone Frosting

Indulge your sweet tooth in the symphony of flavors that is the Delicious Blueberry Cake with Mascarpone Frosting. This classic dessert is a harmonious blend of sweet and tart, thanks to the fresh, plump blueberries and the deliciously rich mascarpone cream. As the name suggests, it's not just about the taste, its also about the frosting of creamy mascarpone cheese that adds a luxurious touch and sets this cake apart. Whether you're planning a sophisticated afternoon tea or looking for a summertime dessert that impresses at picnics and garden parties, this cake promises a visual feast and a party in your mouth.

Imagine fresh blueberries folded into a sumptuous batter, providing a juicy burst of flavor that perfectly offsets the sweetness of the cake. However, the real magic happens when this moist, berry-studded sponge meets its match in the form of a creamy, decadent Mascarpone frosting. Far from ordinary, mascarpone frosting steps up as a sophisticated alternative to common buttercream and is a statement maker in both texture and taste. This cake isn't just a treat for the palate; it's a feast for the eyes, especially when adorned with piped blueberries for a fun and adorable element.

Fresh blueberries are the star of the show, with their bright burst of flavor complementing the sweet cake. Luxurious Mascarpone frosting offers a silkier, more refined texture than traditional buttercream. This makes the cake ideal for a range of occasions, and the cake can be dressed up or down according to the event. Elevate the cake's presentation with garnishes like fresh fruit and citrus zest for an added pop of color and taste.

When one thinks of frosting, Mascarpone often doesn't come to mind, but it should. This creamy Italian cheese, usually reserved for tiramisu, makes for a frosting that's rich but not overpowering, subtle in sweetness, which is exactly what our Delicious Blueberry Cake requires. Transforming the sweet blueberry into an elegant dessert, the Mascarpone frosting coats each layer with velvety luxury, while the hint of lemon zest cuts through the richness, balancing each bite. Unlike its denser counterpart, buttercream, Mascarpone creates a frosting that's light and spreadable, perfectly accentuating the cake, both in flavor and aesthetic. This isn't just frosting, it's an upgrade that adds finesse and elevates the cake to a premium dessert tier that will stand out at any gathering. Mascarpone elevates the cake, adding creaminess and subtle sweetness. The frosting's lightness complements the tart blueberries in a symphony of flavor. It spreads smoothly for a flawless finish.

Not just reserved for frosting, Mascarpone incorporates beautifully into the baking process, contributing to the Delicious Blueberry Cake's moist crumb and rich, nuanced flavor profile. Its creamy texture and slight sweetness melds with the brightness of blueberries to create an unforgettable celebratory dish that's as fitting for a casual Sunday brunch as it is for an elegant evening soiree. To ensure success when integrating Mascarpone in baking, bring the cheese to room temperature. This is crucial for smooth frosting and even mixing into batter. It is a simple step, but one that makes all the difference.

Berry Swap: Fresh vs. Frozen Blueberries in Your Cake

Seasonality need not limit the enjoyment of a Delicious Blueberry Cake with Mascarpone Frosting. Frozen blueberries stand as a viable substitute for fresh ones, ensuring this cake's year-round appeal. Opt for frozen blueberries when fresh aren't available but remember to thaw and drain them first. Lightly coat them in flour to avoid them sinking through the batter during the bake. The vibrant taste remains unaffected, though the varying moisture levels may slightly alter the cake's hue. Frozen blueberries afford convenience and consistency, ensuring this cake's status as a perennial favorite regardless of the season.

Lasting Sweetness: Storing Your Blueberry Mascarpone Masterpiece

Leftovers, if they happen, require care to preserve the cake's fresh, tantalizing qualities. Refrigerate in a sealed container, where the cake will remain fresh for 3-5 days. A plastic wrap against cut surfaces staves off dryness. Store the cake away from foods with strong odors to avoid taste transfer. For extended storage, wrap cake slices and freeze, then defrost before serving for an almost-as-good-as-fresh experience. Maintaining leftovers properly means this cake can continue to delight for days, each slice a testament to the time and love invested in its creation.

As the final crumbs settle, the Delicious Blueberry Cake with Mascarpone Frosting exits not just as a recipe but as an experience that is a delight to both the eye and the palate. The dance of the velvet caress of Mascarpone and the pop of blueberries combines into a confection that's far more than the sum of its parts. For those days that call for something special or moments when only a slice of perfection will do, this cake stands ready to answer the call.

Ingredients:

3 large eggs

3 large egg whites

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons melted butter

3 teaspoon vanilla

1 - 1/2 cup sugar

2-1/4 cups cake flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

3/4 tsp salt

1 cup grated butter

2 cups jumbo blueberries, from Family Tree Farms

1 tablespoon of flour

Filling:

4 cups blueberries, from Family Tree Farms

1 cup granulated white sugar

juice of 2 lemons

Frosting:

1 cup salted butter

2 teaspoon vanilla extract

5 cups powdered sugar

8 oz mascarpone

Instructions:

1. Prep by oiling 3 circle pans (8 or 9 inch) and preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Blend together eggs, heavy cream, melted butter, and vanilla completely.

3. Gently fold dry ingredients in a different bowl until combined.

4. Grate 1 cup of butter on top of dry ingredients. Combined by hand until butter is no larger then pea sizes.

5. Next up add in wet ingredients and blend together with hand mixer on medium-high.

6. Once combined put into 3 pans that are oiled and put into oven. 22-27 min or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. While cake is cooking in the oven take a pot on the stove and add in filling ingredients; blueberries, sugar & lemon juice. Cook, stirring often until blueberries burst and make a beautiful jam.

7. Blend together all frosting ingredients until well combined. (butter and mascarpone should be room temp if not heat in microwave for 30 sec at a time) You can add more heavy cream or powdered sugar depending on desired consistency. I sometimes also double the recipe to a thick layer on the outside.

8. Once cake is done baking let cool in pan for 15 min and transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.

9. Ice layers of cake and do a thin later around for a “crumb layer” that will catch all the crumbs and make a base for the final layer. Place in fridge for 30 min and then do another final layer. Smooth, textured, piped blueberries or fresh, whatever you desire!

10. Enjoy!

Can I use frozen raspberries for the cheesecake instead of fresh ones?

Making a delicious raspberry pistachio cheesecake doesn't have to be time-consuming or difficult. You can easily use frozen raspberries in place of fresh ones in the recipe, which can save you time and effort. Frozen raspberries may not have the same flavor and texture as fresh ones, but they can still make a delicious filling. When using frozen raspberries, be sure to thaw them completely and drain any excess liquid before adding them to the cheesecake. This can help to ensure that your raspberry pistachio cheesecake is both flavorful and moist. You may still want to use fresh raspberries for the topping of the cake to elevate the aesthetic look of the cake.

Ingredients

Crust:

12 oz graham crackers

1 cup pistachios

1 cup melted butter

Filling:

3 - 8 oz cream cheese ( room temperature )

1 stick unsalted butter

1/2 cup brown sugar or light brown sugar

2. Make the graham cracker crust by adding pecans & graham crackers to a blender and processing until fine. Gradually add in melted butter and blend again.

3. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of the springform cheesecake pan until even all the way around. I use a flat-bottom cup or a metal spoon to help.

4. Bake in the oven for 13-15 minutes. Once done remove and let cool completely on the cooling rack before adding filling. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.

5. Make the filling. Mix softened cream cheese and butter with both sugars and salt until well combined with a stand mixer or hand mixer.

6. Gradually add in eggs. Making sure they are fully incorporated each time. Add heavy cream, vanilla and lemon zest! Once well-mixed pour into a cooled springform cheesecake pan. Also, add aluminum foil around the edges of the cheesecake pan.

7. You will then add this onto a tray with a lip. Place on oven rack and add in warm water until halfway full. Push back the rack and start the timer.

8. Cook the cheesecake for 1 hour. The center will still be a little jiggly, but the side will be set. After baking for 1 hour you will turn oven off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven for an additional hour.

9. Once baked for an hour and let sit for an hour in the oven, you can remove it from the oven. Wrap the cheesecake and let sit in your refrigerator overnight. Wait for up to 24 hours before serving or adding raspberry, pistachios and powdered sugar topping.

2 teaspoon Cinnamon

1/4 tablespoons Nutmeg

4 tablespoons Cold Butter, cut into small cubes

1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

2. Sprinkle all-purpose flour and roll out the dough, place on parchment paper and cookie sheet. Spread a layer of caramel along with the bottom of the galette dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Then place the sliced pears in a single, even, and relatively compact layer on top of the apple butter. Sprinkle the pears with the sugar mixture, then top with the cubed cold butter.

Which yeast is best for cinnamon rolls + how to know when yeast is activated

The key to success is using the right type of yeast. Active dry yeast is the best choice for this recipe. To ensure that the yeast is activated, look for bubbles forming on the surface of the mixture. You will pre-check this after adding the yeast to water in this recipe. Once the yeast is activated, the mixture will expand and become foamy. If your mixture does not foam, the yeast may be old or not activated properly. To avoid disappointment, always check the expiration date on your yeast package before using it. With the right yeast and a few simple steps, you can enjoy delicious pumpkin cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing in no time.

Making Ahead, Storing, and Freezing Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls:

These pumpkin cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing are the perfect treat for any chilly Autumn morning. Plus, with the make-ahead and storing options, you can enjoy these sweet treats any day of the week. To make these pumpkin cinnamon rolls easy, you can prepare them up to a day ahead of time. Simply assemble the rolls and refrigerate them in their pan overnight. The next morning, bake them as directed and enjoy. If you have any leftovers, store the rolls in an airtight container for up to 2 days. For those who like to plan ahead, you can also freeze these pumpkin cinnamon rolls for up to 3 months. Allow the rolls to cool completely before freezing. Wrap each one individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. When you’re ready to enjoy them, thaw the rolls overnight in the refrigerator. To reheat, place the rolls in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or in the oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes. If you want to freeze the rolls for later, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, then place them in a freezer-safe container or bag.

Are there any variations available for Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing recipe?

Pumpkin cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing are a delicious way to enjoy the flavors of Fall. This sweet treat is packed with all the flavors of Autumn. With a few variations, you can take these pumpkin cinnamon rolls to the next level.

Variation 1: Add your favorite spices such as nutmeg, allspice, and cinnamon to the dough for a more spicy flavor. This will amp up the flavor of the rolls and give them a unique twist.

Variation 2: Use pumpkin puree instead of regular milk for a richer and denser texture. The pumpkin puree will add a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor to the rolls.

Variation 3: Swap out the cream cheese icing for pumpkin cream cheese icing for an extra-special treat by adding in pumpkin puree again. The pumpkin cream cheese icing adds a unique flavor and pairs perfectly with the pumpkin cinnamon rolls. You can also add maple to the cream cheese frosting to make a maple cream cheese for an even more unique flavor.

Variation 4: Top the rolls with a streusel topping for a crunchy addition. The streusel topping adds texture and a slight sweetness to the rolls.

Variation 5: Add dried cranberries or chunks of chocolate chips for a sweet surprise. The dried cranberries or raisins add a hint of sweetness and texture to the rolls.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies

I love both chocolate and peanut butter so much, so naturally when mixed together and its doubly delicious. They both just melt in your mouth, and my sweet tooth just can't get enough. That's why I made these brownies for my friends and family. You won't be able to stop with just one, and I promise you wont be disappointed!

You can serve these up fresh out of the oven, or let come to room temperature and add-on a delicious peanut butter buttercream frosting topping making for a delicious cake brownie!

What Pan is Best for Baking Brownies?

I am using the newest 360 cookware brownie pan and its the absolute best pan for baking brownies to ensure even baking. I always use their stainless steel pans for the best non-toxic baking. All of their pots and pans are also made homegrown here in America which I love, and from my dealings with them they are the nicest company!! This recipe works perfect for this pan size only, but if you are wanting to make it in one of their other pans like the jelly roll -here- or bake and roast pan -here- you will need to double everything in the recipe. I would start the baking time the same and just check in adding 5 min increments until cooked to your liking.

Ingredients :

1/4 cup melted butter

2 oz melted chocolate

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 brown sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup melted peanut butter

Instructions & Directions :

1. Add hot melted butter to chocolate and mix until chocolate melts. If it doesn't melt quick enough I put my mixing bowl -here- on top of my 2 quart sauce pot -here- on my stove. Stirring the entire time to prevent from burning.

2. After melted, mix into bowl eggs & vanilla ingredients.

Next add in unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and flour ingredients until well blended.

3. Take your brownie pan of choice and pour 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter and using a paper towel coat the entire pan evenly. Pour in brownie batter

4. In a new bowl melt peanut butter and add tablespoons of peanut butter into brownie mix. Taking a sharp knife swirl around peanut butter. Be sure not to over swirl or the peanut butter brown will start to blend with brownie batter. You want them to have a fun design and the peanut butter to be equally spread throughout, while still being separate from brownie batter.

5. Bake for 25 minutes at 350.

6. Remove from oven and let cool before cutting and ENJOY!

Substitute:

A few substitutions you can make are:

• Regular brown sugar to dark brown sugar - this will give a more rich taste for this substitute.

• Adding 1/4 cup chocolate chips into brownie batter - this will give you a richer and gooier brownie! This combination is amazing if you love a rich chocolate dessert!

• Trading our butter for olive oil - I am always a fan of butter however if you cannot have butter switching to olive oil is the best switch to make in the directions.

I really hope you guys enjoy my Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies recipe! This is one of my favorite baked goods to enjoy at home or to take to a party! If you are precutting to take to an event I suggest placing on parchment paper in an airtight container for the best presentation and taste!

How to Enhance the Pistachio Flavor Into Cake

Pistachio cake is a delicious dessert that is perfect for any special occasion. The nutty flavor of pistachios pairs perfectly with moist cake and creamy frosting. I incorporate some lightly-crushed pistachios into the cake batter as well as further enhance the flavor of the cake by adding a few teaspoons of almond extract. To get the most intense pistachio flavor, you can use real pistachio paste or extract in your cake batter. For a toasty twist on the flavor, toast the nuts before adding them to the cake batter as well.

Key Ingredients

This cake is made with all-purpose flour, eggs, butter, sugar, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, milk, pistachios, and cream cheese. The all-purpose flour provides the cake with a light, airy texture and structure. The eggs act as a binding agent and help keep the cake moist. Butter adds flavor and richness to the cake while the sugar helps to sweeten it and create a tender crumb. Baking powder helps the cake to rise and gives it a nice texture, while salt enhances the flavor of the cake. The addition of vanilla extract adds a nice flavor to the cake, while the milk helps to keep it moist. With these ingredients, you're sure to have a delicious Pistachio Cake that will be a hit with everyone!

Pistachio Cake is a delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. Adding crushed nuts and fresh berries to the top of the cake is an easy way to add a colorful layer of flavor.

Does Pistachio Cake Need to Be Refrigerated?

This delicate cake has a light and moist texture that can easily be kept at room temperature, so you don't have to worry about refrigerating it. However, the frosting does need to be refrigerated. If you want to use this recipe to make a pistachio bundt cake without frosting you can leave it out at room temperature. If you are making it as a cake with this delicious frosting then you will need to keep it in the fridge after serving due to the mascarpone in the frosting. It can stay at room temp for a few hours, just not overnight. The ease of keeping Pistachio Cake at room temperature makes it a great choice for picnics and outdoor events. You can easily transport the cake and enjoy it without worrying about it spoiling. So the next time you are looking for a delicious dessert to take to a gathering, Pistachio Cake should definitely be on the menu.

1 cup salted butter

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon almond extract

1 cup whole milk

1/2 cup sour cream

3 large eggs white

Icing

1 cup salted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon almond extract

5 cups powdered sugar

8 oz mascarpone

Chopped Pistachios for decorating top

Instructions

1. Prep by oiling 3 circle pans (8 or 9 inch - my favorite are the 360 cookware with handles I will link below) and preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Finely grind 1-1/2 cups pistachios in a food processor. Chop the remaining 1/2 cup for decorating cake

3. Beat butter until creamy. Add in sugar, vanilla & almond extract, and eggs until combined

4. Next, whisk together finely ground pistachios, flour, baking powder and sea salt.

5. Alternate adding in dry ingredients & Milk/sour cream until all blended.

6. In another dry bowl you will beat 3 egg whites until stiff peaks show. Fold this into the batter mixture

7. Once combined pour into baking dish. I use 3 pans that are oiled and put into oven. 20-30 min or until a toothpick put into center comes out clean. For a taller cake like in my photos you can double this recipe making 6 layers (which will also feed more!)

8. Blend together all frosting ingredients until incorporated. (butter should be room temp if not heat in microwave for 30 sec at a time). If doubling the cake recipe for a taller cake be sure to double the recipe for frosting.

9. Once cake is done baking let cool in pan for 15 mins and transfer to wire rack for another 15.

10. Ice layers of cake and do a thin layer around for a “crumb layer” that will catch all the crumbs and make a base for the final layer. Place in fridge for 30 mins and then do another final layer. Smooth, textured, whatever you desire! Add the remaining pistachios to decorate!

11. Enjoy!

Brown Butter Caramel Pretzel Cookies

These cookies are probably my all time favorite homemade ones.. That’s a big statement being that I love to bake so much, but I’m pretty sure they can hold up the pressure of it! They have all the tastes with the salt, the sweet, and the crunch! So good that the hubby even agrees with me! You may think he’s just being nice because he is my husband. He is sweet.. but he would never lie about my cooking to save face! If I ever need to know if a recipe is good enough to share online.. I call on him and my mom. They both without a doubt will give me their honest opinions no matter what!

Now that I hyped these cookies up.. I have to tell you the bad news. They do take a few hours to make!! (Sorry!!) However the hours that it takes are mostly spent with them in the fridge cooling. So in reality its not too bad and it just means you get more done during that time!

Let’s Get Cooking!

Recipe:

1 cup butter (2 sticks)

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 dark brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla

2 large eggs

2 1/4 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 package of chocolate covered caramels

1 cup crushed pretzels + more to add in later

Sea Salt

Directions:

1. Making brown butter! You want to melt the 2 sticks of butter in a pan until they boil, change in color and start to smell a nutty delicious flavor! The entire house will smell like this and its heavenly. Once the butter gets brown in color and is a yummy nutty smell put into a bowl and let sit cool 5 min. Next, put that bowl into the fridge for 1 hour. I suggest to stir at the 30 min mark just to make sure its cooling evenly and as fast as possible. Once the butter is more like butter and not melted you are ready!

2. While the butter is in the fridge this is the perfect time to get the goodies ready for the end. The chocolate covered caramels I typically use are the Dove brand (if you are a fan of another kind any will work). Unwrap and cut each candy into 4 pieces. Fill a plastic bag with 1 cup of pretzels and crush them!

3. Blend in both sugars and vanilla completely

4. Add in eggs, one at a time

5. Slowly add in all dry ingredients a little at a time until well blended.

6. Now the dough is all ready add in the chocolate caramels and pretzels. Don’t over blend of the chocolate and caramel will over mix and not be in whole chunks.

7. Roll into dough balls, sprinkle with sea salt and add extra pieces of pretzel on corners for extra crunch!

8. Bake at 375 for 9-11 min.

9. Let cool and enjoy!

Easy Part 1: Store-Bought Crust

Apple pie is a classic dessert that is sure to please any crowd. But it can be time-consuming to make from scratch, especially when it comes to making the pie crust. Luckily, there is an easy and delicious way to make an apple pie with minimal effort - using a store-bought pre-made pie crust. This easy apple pie recipe requires minimal ingredients and is great for those who are short on time or are new to baking. The trick to making this recipe successful is to use a good quality store-bought crust. This makes this recipe easier and even more enjoyable. I love to get the double pack and make fun designs on the top with cookie cutters and crisscrossing them. This also makes your pie unique and special.

I always try my hardest to make the best homemade desserts, but I know when the experts have some things figured out better then me.. Like pie crust. I had a hard time trying to make the perfect pie crust so I finally gave up and focused all my energy on the filling! One delicious filling, a store-bought crust and the best pie pan make for a killer apple pie everyone will rave over!!

I am using the 360 cookware pie pan. The pan is made with 5-Ply construction and has a T-304 surgical stainless steel baking surface. No other bakeware cooks so evenly and perfectly as this pie pan! The Pie Pan is covered by a Lifetime Warranty like all of their products making this a legacy pan you can pass down for years to come. Better yet, they are all 100% American Made! Every pan I have used from them has cooked everything so well. This pie pan was nothing short of amazing and not one piece stuck to the pan! That was always irritating for me in the past, but now those worries are gone!

The Best Apples for Apple Pie

Apple pie is a classic dessert that is loved by many. The key to making a great apple pie is to choose the right type of apple. Granny Smith apples are a tart and firm classic choice for a delicious apple pie. Sweet, juicy, and crisp Honeycrisp apples are the perfect balance of tart and sweet. Braeburn apples are full of flavor and hold their shape when baked, making them an ideal choice. For a sweeter pie, Golden Delicious apples add a hint of tartness and are great for baking pies. Finally, Jonathan apples are sweet and tart, making them a great addition of flavor and texture to your apple pie. I like to mix 2 or 3 different apple types to give each bite a unique and delicious flavor. Two of my favorites are the Granny Smith and Golden Delicious together. With these apples in hand, you’re ready to make a delicious & easy apple pie.

Apple Pie Ingredients

2 store-bought roll-out crusts

7 cups thinly sliced apples (I like to do a mix of two different types of apples)

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/2 cup melted butter

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/4 cup water

1 cup sugar

1 egg with 1 tablespoons water mixed for egg washing

Instructions

1. Take out pie crust and pre-heat oven to 425

2. Peel and cut apples into evenly thinly sliced pieces. Place in a large bowl with cinnamon and toss.

3. Melt butter in the microwave until completely melted. Whisk in flour, water and lastly sugar blending until it all comes together. After fully mixed pour in the apple mixture and fully blend.

4. Take pie crusts that have been sitting out and roll over a sprinkle of flour. Take store-bought crust and lay it over a pre-oiled pie pan. Fill the pan with the apple mixture. Lastly, for the design of your pie the options are endless! I did a crisscross pie here and used extra dough with leaf cookie cutters to make the top even more fun!

5. Once the top is all designed and ready to go use egg wash mixture (1 egg and 1 tbsp water whisked) and brush onto dough.

6. Bake at 425 for 15 min and then reduce heat to 350 and bake for another 45 min or until apples are a soft consistency.

You can enjoy your pie right away with vanilla ice cream, let it come to room temperature, or keep refrigerated for the next day. Anyway that you enjoy it I promise you wont be disappointed! The combination of sweet apples, cinnamon, and sugar make this pie a heavenly treat. Whether you are looking for something to end a meal on a sweet note or just a special treat, this apple pie is the perfect choice.

How to Store Leftover Cookies

If you don't plan on eating your leftovers right away, it's important to store them properly. When it comes to storing leftover cookies, there are a few key things to keep in mind. First, it's important to store them in an air-tight container, such as a plastic bag or airtight container. This will help to keep them as fresh as possible and keep out any moisture that could cause the cookies to spoil. Additionally, it's important to store the cookies in a cool, dry place. If you plan on storing them for more than a day or two, then it's best to put the container in the refrigerator or freezer. If you plan on keeping them in the freezer, make sure to use freezer-safe bags or containers. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming soggy or developing freezer burn. Finally, make sure to label the containers with the date you stored them, so you can easily see when they need to be eaten. By following these simple steps, you can easily store your leftover cookies and enjoy them later.

INGREDIENTS

1 cup butter (2 sticks)

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla

2 large eggs

2 1/4 cups flour

3 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

3 cups of your favorite goodies

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Melt the butter for 30 seconds in the microwave (if the butter is not at room temperature).

3. Add sugar & brown sugar into butter and mix. Scrape sides and mix again immediately after.

4. Mix in Vanilla Extract and eggs. Mix again.

5. Gradually add all-purpose Flour, Baking Soda, and salt. Mix well.

6. Now add in all your favorite treats! For these cookies, I did chunks of a milk chocolate bar, old-fashioned oats, colorful M&M’s, sprinkles, and walnuts (all equal to 3 cups)

7. I use a pre-measured cookie scooper linked -here- works great to have even-sized cookies! Scoop onto a baking sheet or parchment paper. Add 2 scoops right on top of each other to give a fuller cookie with a gooier middle.

8. Bake for 9 minutes and cool on a cookie sheet.

9. Enjoy!
