I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Candy Coated Chocolate Cookie Bars

Perfect for game day! Customize the candy to your favourite team.

These were made for Super Bowl LIII ... Patriots vs Rams. However, the Rams made a change and are wearing their throwback uniforms in yellow and blue. No one told me!! 


Ingredients:

2 cups flour
2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1  1/2 cups brown sugar
6 tbsps butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup M&Ms or Smarties (or chocolate chips)
1/3 cup water

Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
In a large bowl beat together the brown sugar and butter, then add the egg and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture and water, alternating in 2 or 3 additions until well blended.

At this point the candy is folded in. If making for two teams divide the dough in half and add the team colours, 1/3 cup to each. Red, white and blue for the Patriots, yellow, chocolate chips and chocolate sprinkles for the Rams. (Could've been Montreal Canadiens vs Boston Bruins!) 


Line one  9 X 13" or two 8 X 8" pans with parchment paper. 
Press the dough into the pans. 


Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes. Cool and cut into squares.


GO TEAM GO !!!
