Featuring my thick and nuggy Chonky Boy Chocolate Chip Cookies, these ice cream sandwiches are the stuff that summer dreams are made of. If you've ever had the Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich at Disneyland , you are going to LOVE these! These big and bold chocolate chip cookies are based on a recipe from my culinary school studies at Auguste Escoffier, but with a few modifications to give them that Jennuine touch. They make the perfectas book for a fat slice of real vanilla bean ice cream. And those mini chips? You just gotta have that extra cronch! Thank goodness this recipe only makes 8 sandwiches, otherwise I would be eating them for breakfast lunch and dinner. This way, my big family can help save me from my inner child diet-saboteur.

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 cup rainbow nonpareil sprinkles
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the cream cheese, egg, extracts and beat together until smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Beat on low speed until just combined.
Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
Place sprinkles in small bowl. Scoop a ball of dough (#40 portion scoop/disher, purple handle, 30 grams, 1.6 Tablespoons) and roll gently between your hands. Roll ball in sprinkles to coat, then place on baking sheet.
Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the dough balls approx. 2” apart. Use a glass or jar with a flat bottom to flatten the cookies until they are ½” high. You can get about 12 cookies to a pan.
Bake in preheated oven for 12 minutes (on center rack, one pan at a time). Remove from oven and let cool on the sheet. Repeat with remaining pans.
Notes:
This recipe works with Jimmie style sprinkles as well.
With the Christmas tree curbside, and the ornaments all neatly packed away, I'm thankful for my small collection of winter decorations that can be left out a bit longer to grace my home with their snowy sparkle and winter whimsy. I would have loved to have had the time to share this sweet little tutorial earlier in the season, but the holidays were busy (as they always are). Now that things have slowed down, this may be, perhaps the best time of all to fix yourself a mug of cocoa or coffee and enjoy the process of creating a vintage style paper mache snowman at your leisure. He is sure to bring smiles to all that behold him, all winter long! This is the snowman that my 7-year old made. The real stick arms were her wonderful idea! This is a fun project t o do with children as well. The process is very simple , versatile, and inexpensive. The fram e for the figure is ma de from aluminum foil which can be worked into the shape of characters for any occasion . I&#
One of my favorite characters from vintage Halloween folk art is the black cat ~ always sporting a mischievous look and a cheeky grin. Last year, I transformed a trio of styrofoam pumpkins from the dollar store into paper mache folk art . This year, with the same $1 budget in mind, I set to work on a classic blown plastic jack-o-lantern treat bucket -- the same jolly guy that's been around since I was a kid. Although I'm nostalgic for his familiar orange mug, I thought it would be fun to transform him into a wiley black cat. So, one afternoon, my daughter and I grabbed an old newspaper and our Mod Podge and set to work...

I recall, as a child, going to The Chart House restaurant and looking forward to the basket of freshly baked breads. My favorite was always the dark brown, slightly sweet bread that the servers called "Squaw Bread". I've heard that a similar bread is served at The Cheesecake Factory. The name has gone out of fashion, since "squaw" is a derogatory term for a Native American woman. The history of this bread can in fact trace its roots to Native American origins when German pioneers combined their traditional German Brown Bread recipe with ingredients available to them through trades with the native people during their westward travels. No matter how you slice it, this New World German Brown Bread is easy to bake and so wonderfully delicious to eat.
