Marbled Oreos

Pinterest day! I don't usually do artsy desserts, but the next 2 posts, I knew I could handle (I hoped anyway). Marbled oreos are super easy and a great idea to do with kids. The color combinations are endless too. 1. I used almond bark, but you can buy melting chocolate in the wedding section at Walmart. 2. In the video, the girl mentions "chocolate coloring". It's actually Wilton's Icing color (found in the wedding section at Walmart). 3.You will have to dip your colors in the white chocolate after 3 cookie dips. Repeat every 3 cookies. 4. Use a narrow, deep dish for the cookie dunking if you want to coat at least half.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Heaven

The weather has been crazy (cold) this weekend, so I felt we deserved a "decadent day". Tonight's dinner is ribs and potato wedges, but I wanted to end with a bang! I scrolled through Pinterest and it didn't take long to find the perfect recipe. This is a fairly simple recipe; a great opportunity to use the stand mixer (using both the paddle and whip) as well as the food processor for the Oreos and Peanut Butter Cups. I used mini Reeses cups with their new "crunchy" and also dark chocolate (half of each). The recipe calls for 16 cookies and 15 pb cups, but I ended up using 8 more cookies and 8 more pb cups for the topping (pulsing them together in the food processor). I also used Extra Creamy Cool Whip because it gives it a thicker, more stable texture. Of course I taste-tested....The boys will not be disappointed tonight. ;)
