Homemade Granola and Smart Chocolate Chip Cookies

Today when I woke up I decided that today was going to be a baking and cooking day. Maybe it's the random spurt of energy I have today and the great sleep I got last night. This might mean the baby is on his way...who knows!

Homemade Granola
4 cups old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup shredded coconut
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped almonds
Method
In a large bowl, combine oats, almonds and coconut; set aside. In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, oil, honey, maple syrup and cinnamon; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla. Pour over oat mixture; stir to coat. Spread in a large shallow baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool. Add raisins and dried cranberries. Store in an airtight container.

**This is super yummy! Put it over yogurt or milk with some fresh blueberries.

Smart Chocolate Chip Cookies - a wholesome twist on a family classic!

2 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup rolled oat
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips

Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and mix. Add flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and salt. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Bake at 350 for 12-14 minutes.

Makes 36 cookies (it really does make this much)

I also made a homemade Hearty Oat Loaf today. We haven't tried it yet so I will post the recipe once we do (just to make sure it tastes as good as it looks).

Love you all!

Chocolate Coconut Bars by Alison Raper

Ingredients

Makes 20.

• 3 cups finely ground cookies (12 ounces), such as graham crackers or chocolate wafers, or a combination
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup pecan pieces
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly splash a 15-by-10-inch rimmed baking sheet evenly with water, then line with parchment paper.

2. In a large bowl, stir together cookie crumbs, sugar, and butter until combined. Evenly press onto bottom and up sides of prepared baking sheet. Bake, rotating halfway through, until firm, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; cool, about 20 minutes.

3. Sprinkle cooled crust evenly with pecans and chocolate. Pour condensed milk over the top, spreading to cover completely (do not let it drip over the edges). Sprinkle with coconut.

4. Bake until coconut is toasted, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool completely. Trim edges, if desired, and cut into equal-size bars.

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies by Lisa Fleischaker

Cream together:

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup peanut butter

Add

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp baking soda

2 ½ cups flour

Also

1 20 oz. bag mini Reese’s peanut butter cups

Preheat oven to 350. Unwrap peanut butter cups before beginning baking. Can freeze peanut butter cups while dough bakes to make it easier to press into cookies without melting. Divide dough and roll into 72 equally sized balls. Drop these into ungreased mini muffin pan.

Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and immediately press a peanut butter cup into the center of each cookie. Let cool before removing from pan.

Makes about 6 dozen.

Easy Oreo Truffles

1 pkg. (8 oz.) Cream cheese, softened

1 pkg. OREO cookies, finely crushed (about 4 ¼ cups), divided

2 pkg. (8 squares each) Baker’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate, melted

Mix cream cheese and 3 cups cookie crumbs until well blended.

Shape into 48 (1 inch) balls. Dip into melted chocolate; place on wax paper covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with remaining cookie crumbs.

Refrigerate one hour or until firm. Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

Chocolate Marshmallow Pillows

Cookies:

1 pouch Betty Crocker double chocolate chunk cookie mix

¼ cup vegetable oil

2 tbsp. water

1 egg

2/3 cup chopped pecans

12 large marshmallows, cut in half

Frosting:

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1/3 cup whipping cream

1 tsp. butter

1 tsp. vanilla

½ cup powdered sugar

Heat oven to 350. In a large bowl, stir cookie mix, oil, water, egg, and pecans until soft dough forms. On ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart.

Bake 7 minutes. Remove from oven; immediately press marshmallow half lightly, cut side down, on top of cookie. Bake 1 to 2 minutes longer or just until marshmallows begin to soften. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely.

Meanwhile, in 1 quart saucepan, melt chocolate chips over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat. Add whipping cream, butter and vanilla; blend well. Stir in powdered sugar until smooth.

Spread frosting over each cooled cookie, covering marshmallow. Let stand until frosting sets.

Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix

½ cup butter or margarine, softened

¼ to ½ tsp. mint extract

6 to 8 drops green food color

1 egg

1 cup crème de menthe baking chips

Using small cookie scoop or tsp., drop dough 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until set. Cool 3 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Serve warm or cool completely.

O'Henry’s by Briana Stepp

1 c. light karo syrup
1 c. sugar
1 c. peanut butter
6-8 c. Special K cereal
12 oz. chocolate chips
12 oz. buterscotch chips

Measure Special K into a large bowl, set aside. In a saucepan, bring karo syrup and sugar to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Pour over Special K and mix well.

Spread the mixture into a greased 9x13 dish.

Melt the chocolate and butterscotch chips in the microwave for one minute and stir. Continue microwaving the chips in 30 second intervals (to prevent burning!), stirring each time, until completely melted and smooth. Spread over the top of the Special K mixture. Refrigerate or allow to harden before serving.

Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese

Ingredients
2 cups milk
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 (10 oz) block extra sharp cheddar cheese shredded
8 oz package elbow macaroni, cooked

Directions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Microwave milk at HIGH for 1½ minutes.
- Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-low heat; whisk in flour until
smooth.
- Cook whisking constantly, 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk in warm milk and cook, whisking constantly, 5 minutes or until
thickened.
- Whisk in salt, black pepper, and 1 cup shredded cheese until smooth.
- Stir in pasta.
- Spoon pasta mixture into a lightly greased 2-qt baking dish; top with remaining cheese.
- Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until golden and bubbly.


Note: I normally double the recipe and bake it in a glass 13x9 pan. Cracker barrel makes one of the only 10 oz blocks of cheese but I often use already shredded cheese.
