It’s been a while since I made crumble bars. For a long time now, they have been my “go to” thing to make, to eat “out of hand” (meaning cookie or brownie-sized). They are so versitile: pick a fruit flavor, pick a nut or chocolate type and voila! Crumble bars just waiting to be taken to your next pot-luck!

Cookies
I swear these cookies taste much more interesting then they look. As I was photographing them, I noticed just how …. monochrome is the best word …. they are. They are delicious, with those new-ish sea salt caramel chip from Hershey, but those are beige as well and blend right into the oatmeal cookie. Trust me, they are super yummy!
I will be the first to admit that the idea for making fried egg linzer cookies for Easter was not my idea. It came from Flour Bakery + Cafe, but I loved it, and I make Linzer Cookies so often that I thought I would add these to the website. They are fresh, pretty and very spring-like…. and make me feel like having breakfast. Perfect addition to Easter Baskets!
OK, one more go at these “Really Big Cookie” Style of Cookie before I move on to something else. I decided the take the “Mega-Cookie” / “Bakery-style Cookie” to a new level by adding Rolos — you know, the caramel-filed chocolate candies? I froze them cut them in half and them added them to the cookie dough. Turned out — well basically like chocolate chip caramel cookies! I could have used the mini-rolos too, but the shops were out when I went looking. I’ll move on to something different now, but wanted to have one more go at them.
A few weeks ago, I made these Really Big Chocolate Wafer Mega-Cookies and they were really yummy. Precisely because they were actually really big. It gave them both chewy and crunchy bits. So I decided to make a variation on those, with somewhat traditional white chocolate and macadamia nuts. Equally as delicious as the original. This recipe makes about 35-38 really big cookies — like the size of my hand. And don’t skip the chilling part; it really makes the cookie what it is!
