Ready for more bacon for dessert action?
If the Candied Bacon S'mores Pizza recipe I posted yesterday didn't convince you of the merits of having a little bacon for dessert, then these Bacon & Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies certainly will!  ;)

The secret to these cookies being so soft and thick? Cake mix and pudding mix, folks. 
Some call it cheating.  I call it genius.
And then when you throw in some gooey chocolate chips, salty bacon, and crunchy pretzel pieces? 
Irresistible!

These cookies pair perfectly with a cold glass of milk.... or maybe a good beer. ;)

White Chocolate Peeps Cookiewiches

A Peeps marshmallow buttercream is sandwiched between two white chocolate pudding cookies in this perfect sweet treat for Easter or spring...











I told you all earlier this week when I posted my recipe for S'mores Bunny Graham Bars that I felt like I owed you all some serious Easter recipes this year since I pretty much slacked in that department last year.





I am making good on that promise with this recipe for White Chocolate Peeps Cookiewiches.
Seriously. What says Easter more than Peeps, my friends? ;)





You may be scanning the photo above wondering where in the heck are these Peeps I am talking about. Well folks, I melted them down and turned them into that pretty pink buttercream you see sandwiched between those soft, thick cookies there. Yep, the Peeps are in the frosting! :)
