Greetings!

  

As we wind down 2012 (wasn't it just 2011?!), I want to wish you and yours a happy, healthy holiday and new year.

Last year, we received such good feedback from our dear readers about our holiday poem and recipe that I decided to do it again. Our poem this year is short, sweet and beautiful and our cookie recipe is full of chocolate (love that chocolate!).

Enjoy!

Donna

 I Wish You Happiness

 

I wish you a lifetime of love
Happiness that never ends

Songs of laughter
Warmth of family and friends

I wish you days that are bright
And filled with dreams
A world of faith and hope
And joy that's everlasting

I wish you constant peace
And good days ahead
You deserve this and more
My dear sweet friend

 

Paula Dean's Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies

 chocolate gooey cookies  

Ingredients 

  • 1 (8-ounce) brick cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 stick butter, at room temperature
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (18-ounce) box moist chocolate cake mix
  • Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Beat in the egg. Then beat in the vanilla extract. Beat in the cake mix. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours to firm up so that you can roll the batter into balls. Roll the chilled batter into tablespoon sized balls and then roll them in confectioner's sugar. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 12 minutes. The cookies will remain soft and "gooey." Cool completely and sprinkle with more confectioners' sugar, if desired.
