Line a 13 by 9 -inch baking pan with foil, leaving enough overhang to help you lift the blondies from the pan when they're done. Turn the pan upside down, and form the foil over the bottom to make the shape of the pan with the foil. Turn the pan back over and press the pre-shaped foil in the bottom. Spray with cooking spray and set aside. 2 Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in medium bowl; set aside. Melt and brown the butter over medium heat and allow to cool slightly. Whisk melted butter and sugars together in medium bowl until combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well.

Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix for 15 seconds longer. 3 Divide the batter between the prepared paper liners, filling each about 2/3 of the way full (you will likely have batter left over after filling 24 wells. I managed to make a full 3 dozen cupcakes) Bake 18 -22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pans 5 -10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Replace paper liners and bake remaining batter if desired.

Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough and press into the bottom of a cupcake well covering the bottom. Top with an Oreo cookie. Scoop a second tablespoon of dough and press on top, being sure to cover up the Oreo. Repeat with the remaining dough. Bake for 12 -15 minutes until the cookies are golden brown and still puffy and edges have begun to set. Transfer cupcake pan to a wire rack; allow cookies to cool before removing from the cupcake pan. If the edges are slightly stuck, carefully run a knife along the edge to loose. Place the cookie cupcakes on a wire rack to fully cool before adding the frosting on top. 4 To make the frosting: In a clean and dry stand mixer bowl with paddle attachment, add the butter and cream until smooth and fluffy about 3 minutes. Add in the powdered sugar. Mix on low. Stop mixer and add in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Start the mixer slowly and after about 1 minute increase speed to medium and mix for 8 minutes until 13 light and fluffy. Pipe frosting onto cooled cookies. Melt 14 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat until melted (could also be down in a bowl in the microwave- just be careful and cover the bowl so the butter doesn't splatter). Transfer melted butter to a mixing bowl. Add brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and vanilla to the mixing bowl. Whisk until incorporated. Add the egg and egg yolk; whisk until the mixture is smooth with no sugar lumps remaining, about 30 seconds. Let mixture stand for 3 minutes, then whisk for 30 seconds.

Remove them from the oven, and cool right on the pan. The tops should be slightly crinkled and you will want to pull them BEFORE they begin to brown on the edges.

Mixed into the cookied dough is crushed butterfingers and chocolate chips! 14
No Bake Oreo Butterfinger Peanut Butter Icebox Cake Make 1 - 13 x 9 pan (2024 servings) 2 cups whipping cream 4 tablespoons sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 2 cups creamy peanut butter 1/2 cup granulated sugar This might be hands down my favorite out of all of the faovrites! It’s a no bake icebox cake so it’s a cinch to make. This dessert has layers of Oreos, a peanut butter cheesecake, fresh whipped cream, and Butterfingers on top! 48 Oreo cookies 1/3 cup Butterfinger baking bits 1 First make the whipped cream: In a clean, cold stand mixer bowl with the whisk attachment add the heavy whipping cream and sugar. Whip until soft peaks form. During the mixing process, it helps to lift the side of the bowl up to ensure the whisk reaches all of the cream and ensure the sugar doesn't fall down to the bottom. To check to see if you have soft peaks, lift the whisk out of the bowl and turn over. The peaks should stand up but then fall over gently to one side. Keep the whipped cream covered and in your fridge until ready to use. You can store in a separate bowl, so you can use the stand mixer to make the peanut butter layer or use a hand mixer for the peanut butter layer. 2 Now make the peanut butter layer: In a separate bowl, with a hand mixer or in the clean and dry stand mixer bowl, combine the cream cheese, peanut butter, and sugar. Mix until combined and smooth. Add in half of the prepared whipped cream. Gently fold to incorporate. Save the remaining whipped cream in the fridge. 3 Now time to assemble: On the bottom of your 9 x 9 pan, layer half of your Oreo cookies. You may need to break some of the Oreos to fit along the bottom to cover the entire area. Spoon the peanut butter layer over. Smooth to cover. Repeat with a second layer of Oreos. Top with remaining whipped cream. Sprinkle Butterfinger baking bits or crushed Butterfingers on top. 15
3 -ingredient Turtles Makes 15 turtles 1 cup pecan halves 1 cup milk chocolate chips 2/3 cup caramel bits sea salt, optional 1 Arrange your pecan halves- 5 for each turtle- on a cookie sheet lined with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. 2 Melt the caramel bits in a microwave safe bowl in 30 -second intervals, stirring in between interval until melted. This took about 1 and 1/2 minutes in my microwave. Spoon about a tablespoon on top of each turtle. 3 Repeat with the chocolate chips. Spoon about a tablespoon of chocolate over the caramel. Top with a sprinkle of sea salt if you desire. Let the turtles set up and the chocolate and caramel set before enjoying! Store at room temperature in a covered container. These soft and chewy blondies are simple to make- and the browned butter give them a toasty caramel note to them that is out of this world! 16
Candy Cane Oreo Truffles Makes 24 truffles 1 These no bake wonders are one of my favorite treats! Oreos, cream cheese, and peppermint extract is all you need to make these truffles! They get dipped in white chocolate and topped with crushed candy canes! 1 package of Mint Oreos for sprinkling 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 2 12 -ounce bag of white or dark chocolate chips or candy melts (I used chips) crushed candy canes, optional In a food processor or stand mixer, combine your oreos and cream cheese. Pulse or mix until combined and smooth. 2 Scoop into 2 -inch balls and roll in the palm of your hand to form a smooth round truffle. . 3 Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place truffles in your freezer or refrigerator until hard. (I place mine in the freezer for about 15 -30 minutes) 4 Melt your chocolate. If using the microwave, place one 12 -ounce bag of chips or candy melts in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 -second intervals, stirring in between each 30 seconds until melted and smooth. If using a double boiler, place a heat-safe bowl over a pot with a few inches of simmering water, and add the chocolate to the bowl. Stir until melted. If using the melting pot, plug it in, add your chocolate to the pot and stir until melted! 5 Take your truffles out of the refrigerator (or freezer)- a few at a time- and dip in the melted chocolate. Top with a sprinkle of crushed candy canes if you like! You can also freeze these overnight, and dip in chocolate the next day. Just be sure to keep them in an airtight container, layered with parchment paper, so they remove easily when you go to dip them. 17
