yum yums

I've been craving toasted marshmallow, so I worked it right into this cookie candy family I'm building.

First, it was coconut crunch cookie candy.

Then, a few days ago -- Biscoff & chocolate.

Now, s'mores!

Big pillows of toasted marshmallow.

Lots of melty chocolate chips.

All on one big crispy-crunchy, buttery cookie.

This definitely satisfied my craving.

cookie candy + contest!

It's craziness around here and it's because of this cookie candy.

I've been on a major cookie-baking marathon lately.

Now I really want to pass on the insanity.

So I'm having a contest. 

This cookie candy is what made me want to do a bit of a bake-off.

It's one giant buttery, crunchy oat cookie.

Well -- part cookie, part candy bar.

southern-style buttermilk biscuits

I've got a thing for biscuits but these...ah, well, these are just so good.

I can't tell you exactly how much I love the texture of these biscuits.

Just looking at them, thinking about them, writing about them...

these butter-rich, soft, tender biscuits...

I need one bad.

They're easy, too.

No rolling required.

And you get to grate butter for these babies.

You gotta try grating butter.

Awhile ago, I thought grating butter sounded like too much work.

It's not. Not at all. It's easier than cubing it, I tell you!

Grating makes a HUGE difference in the texture of the biscuit.

It's also fun. Almost super fun. Almost.

And it makes the whole "work the butter into the flour" part way faster.
