Soft yet chewy. The orange-chocolate combo is irresistible! Also, enter to win a Microplane Zester and a stand mixer attachment from BeaterBlade!

It took me three times to take good photos of these cookies. Ugh, the winter light… One of those things I loathe about cold season. The dark and cloudy days. Not only was I chasing the light but in the same time I was running out of cookies because my kids keep sneaking in to grab one and run for it! And honestly, I don’t blame them. Personally, I would add more orange zest and more chocolate next time.

I got to use my new zester from Microplane. It has a cover that also makes for a measuring tool. Ooh, I love the scent of freshly grated orange zest! My other new favorite tool is the Beater Blade for my KitchenAid mixer! Just look at that perfectly mixed cookie dough! Then the only thing left to do is to bake the cookies.

Christmas is on the way. The date never changes, it’s always the same, and yet, it seems to creep up on me every year. Like it’s a surprise or something. Every year I say I’m going to be prepared. I’m going to get my shopping done early, because I’m always so envious of “those people.” You know, those people who have their shit together by November 1st. Those people who never leave their pumpkins on the front step until it freezes to the concrete. Those people who have all of their holiday parties planned out on their calendars, and have already decided which outfits they are going to wear. I’m not one of those people.

S’mores Cookies. Yesterday was busy with swimming, BBQing, and relaxing. My Laundry Monday turned into Laundry Tuesday topped with an additional load of damp swimming towels. Being the good parents we are we counted swimming as baths for the kids and sent them to bed smelling of sunblock.

Nutella Krispie Treats. I don’t know what happened, but all of a sudden we’re on a huge Rice Krispie Treat kick in our house. When I cleaned out my pantry and got it all organized and stocked again, several boxes of Rice Krispies (and several bags of marshmallows) wound up on my shelves…and we’ve already blown through them all. And it’s not even me. I’m not guilty. It’s my kids, specifically my two middle children. It’s like something has been awakened in them, some deep need they never knew they had, and they can’t be truly happy in life unless they’re mixing dry rice cereal with marshmallow goo. And making a mess of their mother’s kitchen. Needless to say, you can only make regular Rice Krispie treats for so long before you start throwing in some variations here and there.
