brownie cookies

okay so last tuesday night, my sister's best high school friend and THREE OF HER 21 YEAR OLD FRIENDS WERE coming to stay in my living room for four days. i was dying and completely racked with anxiety.

i decided it would be cute if i made brownies. and it was cute.

except i don't like brownies and they had the option to turn the batter into cookies. it was really intense and really really thick. (the cookie recipe just had less liquid)

the girls got there and it wasn't a problem at all and i barely had to do anything and my anxiety was for naught. THEY WERE AWESOME.

look at these bitches. so dark. so awesome. making the cookies instead of brownies gave them this all around crunchy brownie-crust. but gd these are awesome.

omg and they gifted me these! WHOMP!

brown sugar whiskey pecan mini-muffins

okay so i got super bored (AFTER SCOURING MY STOVE TOP) so i made brown sugar pecan whiskey mini-muffins:

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup flour

1 cup pecans, chopped

2/3 cup butter, melted

2 eggs, beaten

Directions:

1) In a bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and pecans; set aside.

2) In a separate bowl, combine butter and eggs; stir in flour mixture.

3) Fill greased and floured miniature muffin tins about 2/3 full.

4) Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until muffins test done.

5) Remove muffins from tins immediately and cool on wire racks.

6) Makes 2 1/2 dozen.

super easy. super good. wish i had like whipped cream or something. good with coffee. i am going to take half of them to the true blood finale viewing & the other half to work!
