As it turns out, it wasn’t really red enough (just more cocoa-y), but I did find this recipe for Red Velvet Blossoms that also rolled the cookies in red sugar and I thought they looked neat, so here is one more submission for Chocolate Week. Using Hershey’s Hugs instead of Kisses is also a nice touch to get them to stand out. This is a recipe that I’ll add to the Valantine’s Day list too!

Sweet Snacks
I was going to call these cookies “Clearing out the Pantry” or “Everything AND the Kitchen Sink Cookies” because they are loaded with as many varieties of chocolate chips as I could find: Semi-sweet chocolate, white chocolate, espresso chips and Bailey’s Chips. In fact, there are so many chips in the cookies that I had a hard time getting them to stick together. But in the end, they did, and combine all those chips with a chocolate cookie as the base and we have chocolate overload (appropriate given that is Chocolate-Week in the CSPS Bake/Cook-a-long).
It’s always cool when you find a new ingredient. This time, I found Lemon Chips from King Arthur Flour. Sort of like Chocolate Chips, but lemon, of course. And they are very lemony. I only ordered one package as a test run, but I will definitely be ordering more! Very Lemony Lemon Chip Poppy Seed Blondies, pair nicely with a glass of iced tea. Trust me. 🙂
