I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in a cookie/bar recipe swap?

Maybe a favorite recipe that you make every year. Doesn't have to be your own, but you at least have to have made it once. lol

Just thought it would be something fun and festive to do. (I'm trying to get in the holiday mood here people so humor me.)

Here's mine;

Layered Peanut Butter Bars

Cookie Base
1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker® peanut butter cookie mix
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon water
1 egg

Filling
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons milk
Frosting
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter

Frosting
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom of 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
2. In large bowl, stir all Cookie Base ingredients until soft dough forms. Press dough in bottom of pan using floured fingers. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
3. In small bowl, beat all Filling ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Spread mixture evenly over cookie base.
4. In microwavable bowl, microwave all Frosting ingredients on High 30 seconds; stir until smooth. Cool 10 minutes; spread over filling. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until set. For bars, cut into 9 rows by 4 rows.

Rum Balls

1 6 ounce pkg (1 cup) of semisweet chocolate pieces
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup rum
3 Tbls light corn syrup

In a saucepan melt chocolate over low heat. Remove from heat. Stir in sugar, rum, wafers, and nuts. Shape into miniture 1 inch balls, using 2 teaspoon mixture for each. Roll in sugar. Store in an air tight container in the fridge. Makes 4 dozen.

Mmmmm....cookies. Anyway, the following recipe came out of my local newspaper. They are absolutely drool worthy and they taste like a holiday cookie. Plus I love vanilla chai. They don't actually contain tea, but they are awesome.

Vanilla Chai Icebox Shortbread Cookies

2 1/3 c flour
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp ground cardamom
1 c unsalted butter softened
1 c granulated sugar
3tbsp honey
1/4 tsp salt
2 lg egg yolks
1 med size vanilla bean

for icing:
1c confectioners' sugar
2tsp vanilla extract (more vanilla bean scraping if desired)
1tbsp water

In large bowl, whisk together flour and spices, set aside. Combine butter, sugar, honey and salt beating with an electric mixer or wooden spoon until light and fluffly. Add egg yolks one at a time and beat until smooth. Using a small knife, split the vanilla bean lengthwise in half. Scrape the seeds from both sides of the pod with the tip of the knife and add to butter mixture. Beat to combine. Add the flour mixture, 1 c at a time blending until fully incorporated. Divide dough in half and ttransfer each half to wax paper. Shape into a 12 inch log, rectangle or square. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 350. Cut logs into 1/8 inch thick slices and place 1/2 inch apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake on center rack until lightly browned on edges, about 10-12 min. Transfer to racks to cool. For icing. In small bowl, combine ingredients until smooth and transfer to a plastic bag...drizzle decoratively across tops.

Makes 3-4 dozen.

I've noticed that it does better with a tad more vanilla and pumpkin pie spice, a tad less ginger, and a tiny bit more cardamom. That's my preference anyway. Alright, now I have to go make some cookies. Yay!

Your process is flawed.
You should eat some raw cookie dough.

Here here KatyLied!!! Raw cookie dough!! How can you not eat the raw cookie dough? They use pasturized eggs, so the risk of samonella is not statistically significant.

Or e coli or what ever it is you get from eggs.
