I got this very upsetting email yesterday afternoon from a friend of mine regarding her daughter. When I called her, they were on their way home from a very long day at the hospital. Her daughter has a kidney infection. Anyone know how a 10 year old gets a kidney infection?
She did tell me that after a hellish day, her daughter was hungry and craving Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. I told her I was going to make her cookies with that particular candy in it! I was told, she “smiled”.
After returning from dinner last night, I chopped up a bunch of “crappy” goodies to make these cookies. This particular batch has the following:
- mini reeses peanut butter cups
- dark chocolate chunks
- homemade marshmallows
- butterscotch chips
- rice krispies
- salted peanuts
- pretzel sticks
Should have added more chocolate. However, by the time I returned from delivering the cookies, the half dozen that were cooling on my kitchen counter were gone! I don’t think anyone noticed the lack of chocolate.
This is a really fun way to make cookies (see original post, here). Try it and use up all the stuff that is crowding your pantry!
hi susan,your blog looks so beautiful. i am getting a sweet craving as i read everything! i am so glad that i do not live to close, or my pants would never zip up. i love the window shopping!! thanks for the treat!love ya,tammy 😉
thank you susan for helping find the cookie dough to this recipe! these were a big hit. i really loved the sweet and savory taste of them. i added golden graham cereal, rice krispies, gold fish crackers, (didn’t have the right kind of potato chips), pretzels, whoppers, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, quick oatmeal, and kit kat bars. i only wish i hadn’t tasted the batter! wow that was incredible. meagan’s friend called them explosion cookies, because her mouth exploded when she ate them!
wow, jocelyn…these sound amazing! i am so glad everyone liked them. ps. the batter is one of the best raw batters, EVER!
