Happy Tuesday My Sweets!! How are you all feeling after yesterday's day of Love? Perhaps you over dosed just a little on chocolate and on the love.
As I was waiting for my stove to arrive today I was checking out some friends Facebook Statuses and let me tell you what a mixture of things I saw. Optimists so much in love and Pessimists telling people to stop being so sickening and people who just couldn't make up their minds, it was rather funny. I even saw a saw a few mentions of wishing for those grade school days when you made your " Valentine Mail Box" and got some valentines from your classmates. And all the crazy things I saw got me thinking, when you were a kid what was your favorite after school treat? When my brand new stove arrived I knew the best way to break it in was the wonderful classic Chocolate Chip Cookie, with of course a Bradley Sweets Twist!
With the new stove preheating, I got my ingredients to make Blue Berry Chocolate Chip Cookies! You didn't think I was going to be totally traditional did you. I washed up some blueberries and set them aside to dry and I mixed up a sugar free batter that I've been working on for a while. There are a lot of recipes you can find on the web which are great sources for inspiration, I do recommend if your using a recipe to work with it, possibly add things to it, or take things away. How else do you think I got the idea to try to mix blueberry and chocolate chip. The key to any good recipe is to make it yours, and make it something you enjoy tasting. Cookie recipes are another thing that are so versatile that you really can't go wrong with any combination. You can even turn your favorite cakes into cookies, carrot cake cookies, red velvet cookies, mocha cookies, and the list goes on.
Of course you can always trick out your cookie! Maybe make your own version of an Oreo by taking two of your favorite cookies and place some cream in the middle, make a cookie sandwich. Home Made Ice cream sandwiches are always fun, and you can always roll the cookie in some sprinkles or nuts to give it an even extra treat. The most original idea I saw was a friend made her cookies look like mini hamburgers and sandwiches. It might sound difficult but all you need is some cookies and some colored icing and your ready to go. I've said it before and I'll say it again, let your imagination run while and see where it takes you.
