Chai Chocolate Chip Cookies - 9/25/2015

Hello again.

     Before work today, I made a different kind of cookie for my coworkers up in Centennial, CO.  I decided to make Chai Chocolate Chip cookies.  I took some refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough and rolled it in Mt. Baker Chai Spice Seasoning from Savory Spice Shop in Colorado Springs, CO.

     I baked them for 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees F. I allowed the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before bagging them and taking them to work.  While going to another building, my trainer had to lock them up.  If he didn't, they would be gone.  That's why I'm The Goodie Guy.

     Here is a picture of some of the cookies.

That's it for this post.  I'm moving from Colorado Springs to Greenwood Village, CO next week.  Until my next post, have a great day.

Combo Cookies - 8/15/2015

Hello, everyone.

      It's a boring Saturday morning.  Last night, I bought sugar cookie dough and chocolate chip cookie dough. Why not combine the two.  So, I did. I also used heart shaped mini fondant cutters and created combo cookies.  Here's a picture of what I made.

What I did with the cookie on the top left is cut out a mini heart shape out of the sugar cookie dough and replaced it with chocolate chip cookie dough.  The top right cookie is a combination of the two cookie dough together.  The cookie on the bottom I did the same thing as the top left cookie but put the sugar cookie dough in the center of the chocolate chip cookie dough and baked at 350 degrees for 10 to 14 minutes.

I know these will get some attention.  That's it for this post. Until my next post, have a great day.

That's it for this post.  Until my next post, have a great day.

Cocoa Cookie Butter Pizza Danish - 6/28/2015

Hello, everyone.

     I went to Trader Joe's today for some plain pizza dough for $1.19.  What did I do with it?  I made Cocoa Cookie Butter Pizza Danish.  I took about an half to one ounce of pizza dough and rolled it in flour.  After that, I worked the dough and made it into a 3 to 4 inch circle.  Then, I put a dollop of cocoa cookie butter on it and sprinkled black onyx chocolate sugar on it.  I baked it for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.  I took it out of the oven and placed a slice of fresh banana on it.  Here's the picture.

The banana looks better freshly sliced on than baked with the pizza danish.  Try it for yourself.  It's better to cook cheap than to buy it already made.  Also, I was called a chef by Belen DeLeon of KUSA Channel 9 in Denver, Co.

That's it for this post.  Until my next post, have a great day.

Cornbread Croutons - 5/25/2015

Hello, everyone. Happy Memorial Day.

     I bought some cornbread last week from Colorado Smokehouse Catering and BBQ in Colorado Springs, Co.  I put the cornbread into the freezer overnight to harden up.  I then took it and cubed it. I melted honey butter in a frying pan and put the cornbread cubes in and fried on all sides.  It's actually good. If I left the cornbread out and it remained soft, it wouldn't work out.  Here's a picture of it.

You may want to add these to black eyed peas and rice.  That's all for this post.  Until my next post, have a great day.

Corn Fritters From Colorado Smokehouse BBQ - 5/21/2015

Hello, everyone.  Last night after dinner, I went over to Colorado Smokehouse Catering & BBQ on N. Academy & Flintridge in Colorado Springs, CO.  I ordered corn fritters.  The manager said it would take a few minutes to make the batter.  Unfortunately, the eggs on hand to make the batter were frozen.  So, the manager went to the store and bought fresh eggs.  He came back and gave the eggs to the cook and made these corn fritters served with 100% honey and rolled them in powdered sugar.

They had just the right amount of corn in them. They were not too crunchy.  That's all for this post.  Until my next post, have a great day.
