3rd Annual Cookie Exchange 2014

We had so many good cookies, bars and fudge this year.  I am so glad I decided to add bars and candy to the selection, especially since Saltine Toffee is my favorite.

Below:
Teresa's Saltine Toffee and Ione's gingerbread cookies.

I filled a piping bag with 1 cup creamy peanut butter.

Next, I piped it on one ritz cracker and put another ritz cracker on top.  Making a ritz cracker sandwich.  Meanwhile I melted chocolate chips in my mini crock pot.  When all the chocolate was melted I dipped as much of the ritz sandwich as possible.  Then I topped with a (crushed ritz cracker). There is usually a small corner where my finger was that doesn't have chocolate, I use a knife and just spread the chocolate on the missed spots.

Fourth Annual Cookie Exchange 

K Train's Famous Chocolate Chip Cookies

I don't know K-Train but I do like her cookies.

 My husband thinks they are the best.  Linda brought them to, "The 3rd Annual Cookie Exchange," and was nice enough to share this recipe.  I hear the Snicker Doodles are amazing so hopefully you will get that recipe next year from the 4th Annual cookie exchange.  

 I will definitely make these cookies the next time I need a chocolate chip cookie fix. 

Jeans and Jewels

I had the best time at this years school fund raiser.

"Jeans and Jewels."  

We had the option of decorating a table to reserve seats for our friends.  The auction was October 24th so I choose Halloween decorations.  We ended winning "Best and Most Creative." 

Rolo Turtles

Preheat oven 200 degrees
1. Line cookie sheet with the pecans, pick the best ones.  Toast in oven for 2 minutes.
2. Line a cookie sheet with Snyder's Butter Snaps.
3. I used the mini Rolo's because they are already unwrapped.   I put two Rolo's on some of the  pretzel's to see if it made a big difference.  I thought they were both great, my son like the pretzel   with 2 Rolo's.  I also tried Milky Ways...I probably won't do that again.

    4. Put them in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes, they will be soft because they are melting.

    5. As soon as you take them out of the oven press a pecan half into the center of the Rolo.
