Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Cookie Bars

Posted by Delightfully Doable on 14 May, 2014 None comments

I found this recipe as it’s nearing that time of the month where sweets are anywhere and everywhere in my house. Right now, I currently have peanut butter twix bars, mountain bars, and now these cheesecake bars. I recently just finished the homemade twix bars that I made as well as a chocolate cake. There’s no need to explain why I am craving it all as you as a woman can relate 100%.

It actually is really annoying how much sweets come to my radar and it varies every month. Some months I really could care less and others (like currently) I live my diet by sweets. Okay not literally, but pretty close! :)

Ingredients:

Curst

  • 1 cup flour + 2 tbsp
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • ½ cup coconut oil (softened)

Filling:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar

Cookie Dough

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ¾ cup unbleached flour
  • ¾-1 cup mini chocolate chips

Mix together the crust and place in a greased 8×8 baking pan. Use a spactula and smooth in the bottom of the dish.

Bake at 325 for 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix together the filling. In a stand mixer combine all ingredients and cream well. Spoon on top of warm crust.

In the same mixer (rinsed) make the cookie dough. Combine brown sugar, sugar, salt, butter and vanilla together. Cream well. Add flour and mix until well incorporated. Add chocolate chips.

Sprinkle on top of cream cheese and drop until all dough is evenly dispersed.

Bake at 325 degrees for roughly 30-40 minutes. (every oven varies in accuracy of heat, if the dough is fully cooked and golden brown you are “golden”)

Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies

Posted by Delightfully Doable on 26 April, 2014 None comments

I love a good cookie and a staple cookie for me is chocolate chip with not too many chocolate chips. I love the dough more than the chocolate. I am a chocolate lover but for some reason prefer no chips in my chocolate chip cookies. :)

I made these today to add a twist to them and unfortunately it didn’t make too many cookies. Not because the recipe itself, but because a cookie dough thief comes and snatches all the dough before it can get baked. I used to be able to blame this on my sister because I would hide the dough from her because I was mean and not for any other reason. Sorry sis! But this time, I can only blame myself as I wouldn’t serve raw egg to my son. I hate probably ate half the dough today. I know have a terribly food baby rolling around in the pit of my stomach.

Needless to say, this is great dough and great cookies.

Ingredients:

  • ¾ cup dark brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup mint morsels

Combine sugar and coconut oil in a standing mixer.

This is how it should look without over mixing

Slowly stir in flour and baking soda. Mix until incorporated. image

Mix until well incorporated, again being careful not to over mix.

Add chocolate chips and mint morsels.

Place on cookie sheet about 1 inch apart and bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes.

Hope you didn’t eat all the dough so that you would enjoy the fresh baked cookies! :)
