Sorry Cookie and I haven't done any entries lately; it's hard to create origional (and good-tasting) recipes.  But, we're aways cooking more, and trying to come up with good ideas.  So keep on checking our blog for new recipes!

Cookie's come up with a new idea: instead of posting a comment to share your recipe, send us a private message if you want!  If we like how your desert sounds, we'll share it with everyone on our blog.  :)

So be sure to send us a message, and keep on cooking!

What you'll need:

1 easy-to-make boxed vanilla cake mix  

Large eggs

Vegetable Oil

Water

Lemon icing

A microwave

Strawberries / raspberries

What to do:

Follow the instructions on the cake mix box after pouring the mix into a large bowl (the box will also tell you how long to bake your cake).  We prefer using a 13x9 inch cake pan.  When the cake is out of the oven, stick a toothpick into it's middle to see if it's done (if there are pieces of doughy cake batter attached to the toothpick, you'll have to place the cake back in the oven for about 5 more minutes).  Wait about 10 minutes for the cake to cool off once it's out of the oven.  After the cake's done cooling off, get the raspberries or strawberries (if you're using strawberries, cut them into fourths and remove their green stems first) and sprinkle them over the surface of the cake so that they're touching every part of it.  Now, take the lemon icing and place it in the microwave for 1 minute or so (or until it's melted).  Remember to remove the lid before doing all this, and to place a paper towel over the icing container.  Carefully tip the icing container over the cake and slowly drizzle it over the berries until they're all covered.  Wait for the icing to harden, and then.....you're done!   (Enjoy!)

Just wanted you all to know that it's fine for any of you to grab a recipe that you made up and post it on a comment, if you'd like.  We'd love to hear of your recipes and try them out ourselves --- and we're sure other people would, too!

Thanks to Tinuviel's and Nimrodel's hard work, our blog now has a new look!  I'm not quite sure if it's finished entirely yet, but it looks like it to me. 

Just wanted you all to know.   ^_^

Here is an easy and delicious Christmas (or anytime) recipe you might enjoy:

What you'll need:

Tall pretzel sticks

White, semi-sweet, or dark chocolate chips (if you like you can make some of each!)

Red and green sprinkles, mixed

Peppermints or candy canes (original peppermint flavor)

Wax paper or tin foil

Large baking pan

Large, deep, frying pan

What to do:

First, get out your baking pan and put a sheet of wax paper or tin foil over it.  Lay it to the side for when you're ready to use it.  Open up the bags of pretzel sticks and chocolate.  Pour the kind (or kinds) of chocolate into the deep frying pan (if you're using many different kinds, pour them into separate pans---Cookie and I usually use white and semi-sweet chocolate).  If you're using chocolate cubes, we suggest chopping them in half before dumping them into the pan.  Set your stove on low heat and place the frying pan over it.  Now you can get a large spoon and stir the chocolate until it melts (this might take about five or ten minutes).  Once you've melted the chocolate so it's nice and creamy, get a pretzel stick and dip one or both sides of it into the chocolate.  Once you've done this, set it on the pan.  Get the peppermints or candy canes and put them into a zip-lock bag after unwrapping them, so you can crush them into small bits with a spoon.  Sprinkle the pieces of the mints onto the chocolate end of the pretzel stick (if you have red and green sprinkles, you can do that instead of the mints).  Continue to do this until all of the chocolate-covered pretzel sticks are done.  Remember to set them in neat lines so they aren't touching each other.  You may make several pans, if you like.  When all of this is done, put the pans into a refrigerator or freezer so your dessert won't melt.  When it's ready, you can take it out of the freezer or fridge and serve it to your family, friends, or guests (they're good for any event).  Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!

~Cookie & Pie

Hello, and welcome to the blog of two cooking friends (we go by Cookie--my friend who you'll soon meet---and Pie, myself).  We live quite close by to each other, and often go to one another's houses and experiment with cookies, cakes, and more.  Friends and family have recommended sharing a few of our recipes (all desserts, so far) with other people through this blog, and we decided it sounded like a good idea.  We're still working on a layout, and will try to post some of our desserts and ideas as often as we can.  Will write again soon!
