Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
I know I have posted other Double Chocolate Chip cookie recipes before but I am going to have to say this recipe is by far my kid’s favorite. Plus, these cookies were so easy to make! You got to like that 🙂 I made these cookies last weekend for the kids lunches and they came home asking if I could make more so they could share with your friends at school. Yes, that is how good these cookies taste. You should have everything in your pantry to make these cookies now. The only ingredient you might not have handy is the 4 oz. semi-sweet chocolate. I used Ghirardelli Chocolate Premium Baking Bar Semi-Sweet. Delicious!
I found this recipe from Kitchen Simplicity. The recipe was adapted from Martha Steward.

Tasty Treats – Easy Lemon Cookies
At My Baby Pajamas we decided to mix it up a bit. Instead of doing a weekly Tuesday Cook Off post we decided we would post a recipe when it was a winner. So for now on we are going to call our dessert post Tasty Treats (thanks to Jeff Fisher) and our dinner recipe post Family Feast.
So this post is a Tasty Treat for sure. If you love lemon you are going to love these EASY lemon cookies. My youngest son came home to me last week and asked me why I never made him lemon cookies. I said I didn’t even know you liked lemon cookies. Well, then he proceeded to tell me he likes lemonade and Lemonheads so he must like lemon cookies. 🙂 I was a little unsure about making a whole batch of lemon cookies and then my husband and I would be stuck eating them!
So I searched Pinterest for a recipe that didn’t seem too lemony and that was easy too. I found the perfect winner. These cookies were so easy to make and the WHOLE family loved them!! This included my older son who doesn’t really like lemon favor. But he loved them and asked for them in his lunch.
Now I know these cookies are not totally 100% made from scratch but sometimes moms just need an easy way out every once in awhile 🙂
Recipe from Gimmesomeoven.com
Yields about 24-30 cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 package lemon cake mix
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- juice of half a lemon (about 1 Tbsp.)
- zest of half a lemon (about 1 tsp.)
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar for decor (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Pour cake mix into a large bowl. Stir in eggs, oil, lemon juice and zest until well blended. Form dough into small balls (about 1 Tbsp.), and drop into a bowl of confectioners’ sugar. Roll them around until they’re lightly covered. Once sugared, place on a lightly-greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 6 to 9 minutes in the preheated oven. The bottoms will be light brown, and the insides chewy.
**To get a rounder, fluffier cookie, let the dough refrigerate at least 30 minutes. (You can also prepare the sugared balls of dough on the cookie sheet, and just refrigerate the sheet for about ten minutes for a similar effect.)
I hope you enjoy these cookies as much as we did!
Tuesday Cook Off ~ White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies
Have you ever tried the cookies at Subway? My boys just love Subway and I would much rather get them Subway when we are in a rush than any other fast food place. So a couple of months ago I was getting my boys Subway and they were stocking their cookies. I noticed they had a White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie; I had to try it! Well, it was delicious. Ever since then I have been looking for a recipe similar to the Subway cookie. I think I have found it!!
The recipe calls for using Jiffy Raspberry muffin mix. When my husband heard this, he was in! Yes, I am serious. Most people would be like really Jiffy the 99-cent muffin mix. Where as my husband loves Jiffy…really. In fact, it’s a big joke in the house every time I make muffins. He always says, “Please tell me you are making my favorite…from the Jiffy box”.
Anyway, this recipe is very easy to make and I hope you enjoy them!! They also freeze well.
Recipe from : Bakergirl
Yields about 3 dozen cookies depending on size
2 (7-ounce) boxes Jiffy raspberry muffin mix
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
2 tablespoons butter-flavored shortening
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the cream cheese, butter, shortening, and brown sugar, until just combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Add the muffin mix and using a wooden spoon, mix until incorporated. Stir in the white chocolate chips and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease baking sheets and roll dough into tablespoon-size balls. Place 2-inches apart on baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, until just turning golden around the edges. Each oven will vary in time. Mine baked about 9:30 minutesCool five minutes on baking sheet before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
