In case you haven’t heard — and goodness knows that I have been talking about it a lot on Facebook — but there are now these Bailey’s Irish Cream baking chips on the market. They are chocolate with Bailey’s flavoring, which sounds just delicious. So, I got me-self a bunch of bags and am trying out some recipes. First up, these Triple Chip Mudslide Cookies with Irish Cream, Mocha and White Chocolate Chips. Yes, overload on the chips. A little on the sweet side, but otherwise really good. I had a little bit of Irish Cream extract which I put in too, but it’s optional and you could definitely just go with vanilla extract as well.

Browned Butter Cran-Strawberry Crumble Bars with Toasted Pistachios
Between eggs and strawberries, I seem to be drowning in ingredients these days, so I decided to make more jam (subsequent post coming up) and then with “extra” jam (I ran out of jars), I decided to make these crumble bars. They are definitely my go to recipe. This time, I browned the butter first (definitely a great idea) and then added pistachios as well. Perfect for a 4th of July picnic!
It’s been three weeks since I baked anything. That might be a recent record. Admittedly, two of those three weeks, I was traveling, but nevertheless, it feels like I am going through withdrawals. That said, there is a lot on the agenda for the next few weeks, so I thought I would get into the swing of things with these easy but delicious blondies. Bourbon, pecans and white chocolate: very yummy!
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!
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!
