I've been baking up a storm these days. Between holiday parties and cookie exchanges, there's plenty to keep me busy. Not to mention that I'm head over heels in love with my slow cooker. I mean, I can't believe I've lived the first 30 years of my life without it. It has single-handedly turned me into the wife of the year!
Here's what I've been up to:
Chocolate crinkles
Ready for mass distribution.
The recipe is available here. The change I made was to dissolve a teaspoon instant espresso in the vanilla. I always do this in chocolate recipes to enhance the flavor.
As for my beloved slow cooker, I've made everything with it, but here's my favorite recipe so far.
I know I shouldn't share my secrets, but since I love you all so much, I may as well. It's terribly simple; 1/2 cup of chicken brother chopped onion, 2 chopped lemons, 4 crushed cloves of garlic, rosemary and a splash of orange juice. Wash the chicken well, pat dry and cover with poultry seasoning. Cover and cook for 5 hours. During the last hour, baste regularly and voila! The perfect dinner!
And coming soon... My holiday party!
Here's a sneak peek... I swear, my fridge does not usually look like this.

I LOVE Chocolate Crinkles!! My aunt makes the best ones...I try to re-create them every Christmas...I'm getting close! Love the idea of adding the instant espresso...might have to test that out myself!

Wow! I grew up on Chocolate Crinkles (we call them chocolate Pixies)....but I thought they were something my mom made up! Aren't they amazing!
Chocolate Crinkles are so yum yum yummy!!
The cookies looks scrumptious right now :)
Hi Teresa, hope you and the hubby had a wonderful holiday. I have a random question for you (or anyone that might know)...how do you get your links (in the sidebar) so each one opens in a new window? Is there an easy fix (button?!) for this, or does it involve HTML coding? Any help would be much appreciated!! :)
