Oatmeal Cream Pies

Well as some of you may know I had a surgery last weekend to remove my gall bladder. It was not planned, I went into the hospital with the worse attack I've ever had only to find out my gall bladder was inflamed and needed to be removed! I was freaking out because I have never had any type of surgery! I now respect anyone has ever had any type of surgery. Wow! I was hurting for a whole week after. I still have pains every once in a while but I'm glad to be back baking some goodies!!

So I have been dying to make these ever since I found the recipe on Shugary Sweets! She is awesome! Oh and let me warn you, these are NOT healthy, like at all! But they are so yummy! I loved them and will definitely be making them again! Hope you enjoy!

Butterscotch Goo Bars

Be warned, these are AMAZING!! It was all I could do NOT to eat the whole pan! 

I was sitting around the other day and really wanting to bake something so I started looking on my new favorite blog: Shugary Sweets and found these! I happened to have some butterscotch chips leftover and my husband has been asking for something butterscotchy. 

 The original blogger titled them Butterscotch Marshmallow Bars but I wanted a more tempting name. Mine didn't turn out near as pretty as hers but trust me...they taste way better then they look! Try out these recipe for so oh soo gooey greatness!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup butterscotch chips
• 2/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cup flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 cup mini marshmallows
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 13×9 baking dish with parchment paper. Or spray with oil.
2. In small bowl, melt butterscotch chips with butter in microwave, at 30 second increments, stirring between each time. Set aside.
3. In large mixing bowl, add brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix in melted butterscotch chips, flour, baking powder and salt. Fold in marshmallows and chocolate chips. Pour batter into baking dish.
4. Bake for 18-22 minutes. Cool, cut into squares. The recipe said to refrigerate for one hour but mine came out a little too gooey (like that's a bad thing...haha yeah right) so I just store mine in the refrigerator. They are incredible!!

Sugar Cookies

I have been baking a LOT lately, just in time for the Christmas season! I am way behind on posting all my goodies, mainly because the pictures of yummies aren't so yummy looking. Taking pictures of food is difficult. :/ Anyway here is a simple sugar cookie recipe I got from a friend

(Thanks Rachel Ramos!)

Ingredients:

1 cup butter (room temperature)

1 cup sugar

1 egg

1t. vanilla extract

2t. baking powder

3 cups flour

Preheat oven to 400° F.

Beat together butter and sugar until smooth. Add egg and mix until well incorporated.

Mix together flour and baking powder in separate bowl. Slowly add to butter mixture and

stir until dough forms.

Roll out dough onto light floured surface (I used flour and powdered sugar), cut into shapes or roll into balls and place on cookie sheet.

Bake for 8-12 min allow to cool and enjoy or frost with icing or a glaze like mine! You can also sprinkle sugar on cookies just before baking! Yumm!
