Chocolate Chip Cookies Part Dos

After coming home from a fun night with friends, it's always nice to have a late night snack that you're so proud of you have to take a picture of it! Here is Nestle's mint hot chocolate with some mini marshmallows and Hershey's chocolate chip cookie recipe. We used the new Hershey's melts in the cookies and they are fun and different, but I think I prefer actual chocolate chips :) I also had to add like 4 extra cups of flour, because they were thin as paper!! My daddio likes em like that, but I prefer fluffy cookies :)

Pretzel Time

Tis the season to be Jolly! And fat :) As usual, for my Christmas presents I make my good friends, I made chocolate covered pretzels. Usually I just dip them in semi-sweet chocolate, then drizzle some white chocolate over them, but this time I decided to be fancy! I got some white and milk chocolate flavored almond bark (which is so much nice to melt than using chocolate chips), the crushed up oreos and candy canes! The candy canes I sprinkled over the white chocolate pretzels and the oreos I did over the milk chocolate. They were a sweet success! Merry Christmas my friends!
