    Day 1: Brown Butter Snickerdoodles (2), Edy's slow churned vanilla with a sprinkle of cinnamon

    7a33cdc2-00a3-43b8-9b9e-d725d7f893d5_zps165a9a70.jpg

    I'm a new convert to brown butter recipes. I tried one for chocolate chip cookies a couple of weeks ago that was divine, and this one was awesome too. The difference between butter and brown butter in a recipe is similar to the difference between margarine and butter. Brown butter is a much richer flavor. It gives the cookies' flavor a kind of toffee undertone.

    So glad to see this posted, I pinned this recipe a while back and haven't tried it yet. Snickerdoodles are my favorite cookie and wasn't sure if the brown butter would mess with the usual flavor too much?

    It is different but I think it's good different. Do not cook it for the whole time though. I did one batch for 8 minutes and one for 10-- the 10 minute batch is too crunchy this morning.

    Do cliff bars count? I love those things! And the added protein makes it feel worth while for all that sugar.

    I wouldn't really label a protein bar as a dessert ;/

    This topic gives me the happies, especially on a Monday morning. I guess I do this anyway, so I'm in.

    Day 1 (Sat, May 3): serving of Mike & Ike jelly beans. No, it's not classy or fancy, but I am so in love with Mike & Ike's. what can I say?!
    Day 2 (Sun, May 4): Made a 9x13 pan of some PB Chocolate cookie bar things. AWESOMENESS! Stopped myself at two (about 200 cals each).
    Day 3 (May 5): will be having another homemade PB Chocolate bar after dinner.

    For those in the UK, may I suggest Tesco Finest Cornish Sea Salted Caramel (chocolate covered) Ice Cream Bars? The Tesco Finest Senga Strawberry and White Chocolate Ice Cream Bars are good too.

    Oh - Day 1 for me is adding Cadbury Hot Chocolate mix to my coffee(s). :wink:

    Day 1: Peanut Bismarck, Kroger Cherry Cordial ice cream

    Can you describe a peanut bismarck for me? I had a "peanut roll" from our local bakery yesterday and was having a heck of a time finding anything remotely similar in the MFP database. Mine was basically a danish with white icing and chopped peanuts sprinkled in. Delicious...

    Day 1: 5 Girl Scout Thin Mints & a Twix Ice Cream Bar

    Twix Ice Cream bars are my favorite ice cream of all time. I get so excited when I find one since my local grocery stores dont stock them and I have to go out of my way to find one.
