Tasty Tuesday: Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies

I am so mad at myself...

So, I was super excited to share this recipe with you guys. (I still am going to, don't worry.) However, I went into my recipe book.... and I had never carried it over from wherever I had written it!

UGHHHHHHHHHH!

It's fine, everything is fine. I looked it up (and found the right one because there are like 5 different ways to make these darn things), and the recipe will be linked below.

So, to explain these cookies: they are spicy chocolaty goodness. Every time I make them, they are scooped up by everyone, including the toddler. You can tweak the spiciness to fit your pallet, but they don't have a crazy amount of burn to begin with. They are pretty forgiving if you mess up on the flavored ingredients as well. This is probably one of my favorite cookies, and definitely super easy to make, so I hope you try it, and leave a comment telling me what you think!

Happiness Is A time Of Day

Happy Daylight Savings! Oh wait, no, it's not happy. We lost an hour!!!

Yesterday, I spent all day baking. When I say all day, I don't mean a few hours here and there. I mean a full 8 hours! I went to bed sore and exhausted at 11pm (I had to take the hubby to work, otherwise I would have went to bed earlier.) Then, an hour of sleep was stolen from me, and I woke up sore and exhausted... Umm, forgive me, but what the crap?!

A cup of Almond Joy coffee later, I feel a little better. I got to watch the baby run around and laugh for an extra hour, and today I am taking the time to relax a little extra. As I do so, I will look at this day as a blessing. Even though we may wake up so tired, it only lasts for a day or two while we acclimate. But, we get a little more time to enjoy life and have fun. I saw a meme asking why they change the time in the middle of the weekend instead of on a weeknight. I think it is better this way. Most people don't work on Sundays, so we get one more hour to enjoy a day off! If we did it on a Thursday (or another weekday), we would be an hour closer to going back to work. Ugh.

So, today, look for the joy of your extra hour. Unless you "slept in". In that case, screw you, lol.

Have a wonderful Sunday!!!
