TWD ~ Espresso Chocolate Shortbread Cookies

By -

As I type this I don't think there are any cookies left because we might have eaten them all. These were a very simple and easy recipe to make. I didn't use bittersweet chocolate, but substituted that for Heath Chocolate pieces. It was so simple to roll these out while in a gallon zip lock bag. It kept everything nice and in place. I almost didn't refrigerate them, but I'm glad I did because these will definitely crumble on you if you don't. We tried them warm from the oven and thought they were pretty darn good.

Heath bar pieces? WOW. You made my favorite Ben & Jerry's flavor in cookie form - coffee heath bar crunch! I'll have to try that next time. Lovely cookies.

So now with Christmas almost upon us, I wanted to take the last few days to make some Christmas Crafts.

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
