Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes

Yesterday I made the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes from Kevin & Amanda.  They are even more delicious than they look!  Below is the recipe, I made my cookie dough balls Saturday afternoon and froze them overnight.

For the cookie dough (there are no eggs, so no worries about eating raw dough, YAY!)
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
4 tbsp milk
1 tbsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup mini chocolate chips

I filled my cupcakes with 3 TBS of batter and it was a little bit too much, next time I'll put a little less.  You just plop the frozen cookie dough balls in the center and follow the baking directions for your cake mix.

I cheated and went the easy way with a plain yellow cake mix and chocolate frosting, but you can get more creative with your own recipes for cakes and icings or check out what Kevin & Amanda did, maybe some other day I'll be that ambitious!

It may not look like it, but there is a center of ooey gooey cookie dough deliciousness hiding in there!

Bacon Cheeseburger Chicken

There is another blog I have stumbled across that I absolutely adore, you can check it out HERE.  Kevin & Amanda have lots of great things and one thing I tried out last night was their Bacon Cheeseburger Chicken.  It was delicious, I cheated and opted for the bacon bits...it was a Monday night, give me a break, we're lucky we were fed!  My husband loved it because "it was chicken in a new way," he's a chicken fanatic.  Follow the link to check out the recipe and also take a look at their blog.  There are so many good ideas on it that I can't wait to try, like THESE.
