Oreo Pudding Cookies

The other day, I was helping *someone* paint his house, along with his mom and dad. Naturally, the conversation turned to food, which ironically tends to happen when words leave my mouth. It's some sort of disease, I think.

We got to talking about baked goodies, and his mom mentioned Oreo Balls. I've heard of them, but don't think I've ever tried them before. In Brittany fashion, I took to Pinterest. Bing bang boom Pinterest explosion. People love these things! So, I wanted to make them, and ship them over from home as a surprise pick-me-up. Well, I realized they probably wouldn't ship well, so I went with the next best things! Oreo Pudding Cookies! I cannot even begin to explain how good these cookies smelled while they were baking! Mmmmm!

The recipe was fairly easy and included all sorts of yummy ingredients. Find it over at The Girl Who Ate Everything. Love her stuff! You will too! (And hopefully so will they-fingers crossed)

Xoxo,

Homeward Bound! And some cookies..

I haven't posted anything in a while, I know. I apologize to my maybe 2 loyal followers! This week we are on Spring Break and it has been a long time coming! Much much needed for everyone, including the students. I traveled home to Syracuse for half of the break, to spend time with the family. I just love being home. My brother loves it too, because I bake up a storm while I'm there! Let me tell you, I'm finding how hard it is to provide for a family of 5! And expensive, too! I commend you, mom!

Here's the rundown of what I've made so far while I've been home:

Oreo Pudding Cookies
Peanut Butter Pancakes
Italian Ham Pie
Chinese Chicken Stir Fry

Still on the To Make list:

Lemon Garlic Butter Tilapia
Lasagna with Meat Sauce

That's right. Dad said, "Britt, are you ever not in the kitchen?" "Yep, when I'm at the gym, Dad!"

I'm often asked, "How are you able to make this stuff and not want to stuff your face with it afterwards?" It's honestly not that bad. While I'm cooking, just the act of doing so is good enough for me. While people are enjoying the food that I've made, hearing them say what they thought is good enough for me as well. If I do happen to be the least bit tempted, I snack on fruit. Fruit is amazing. End of story. Literally, ha!
