It's Sooo HOT! in Crocker's kitchen

I am sure that none of the brothers care, so this post is for the sisters. I want to share the cool recipies I find. I am going to post one new recipe a month for anyone to try out. I hope that everyone will share the good recipies they have too. I am always on the look out to cook new things. ( I know this picture looks like a pile of poopy, but the cookies are good.)



June: Mint (or white chocolate) cookies

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups cocoa
1 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups mint or white chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets.
2. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beat well after each egg.
3. Mix cocoa, flour, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Gradually stir into butter mixture.
4. Fold in mint chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto cookie sheets.
5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until puffy and soft. Let cool on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before placing on wire rack.

My New Blog


Now that the spring semester is over, I finally have time to participate in the family blog. I made my own blog so I wouldn't take up so much space on the family blog. I haven't figured out how to use all the blog features yet, but I hope to get things posted soon to keep everyone updated on what Ryan and I are doing.
