Forget Me Cookies – Hidden Ponies Guest

July 14, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 21 Comments

Hello Peeps,

Today I have a very special guest blogger for you.  Meet Anna and her sister Chelsea from Hidden Ponies.  These sisters are just the sweetest!  They make the most wonderful meals and desserts.  I signed up to receive their e-mails and I look so forward to reading them every time they post.  There photos are always gorgeous and the goodies they make are just to die for.  You’ll see that from the recipe and post below, super yum!  I have so many of their recipes bookmarked to make, it’s crazy.  I am looking forward to trying there Butternut Squash Jalapeno Cream Soup.  I’m just waiting for the butternut squash to come into season.  But not only do they have awesome recipes they also have good and funny stories.  I love reading about their family life.  I am sure you are going to just love them, as much as I do.  So give a warm welcome to Anna from Hidden Ponies.

Hi everyone!! I’m Anna from Hidden Ponies, where I blog with my sister Chelsea, and I’m so excited to be guest posting on Jennifer’s blog today!  Jennifer’s was one of the first blogs I read regularly when I started blogging, and she was one of the first people to comment regularly on my blog and her comments are always thoughtful and sweet and I just know I would love her as much in real life as I do online, so I was so happy to be able to help her out while she’s away.

Our blog is all about food and how it fits into real life.  It’s all about finding the silver lining (the hidden pony!) in any situation, and sharing creative, tasty dishes that anyone can make.  We all know homemade is better, so we want to share meals and snacks that are totally doable, generally very quick, and that taste great every single time.  Sometimes you want a little help from the box or the can and we totally get that –  we do too!  Our mom has been kind enough to document a lot of our family recipes in the form of cookbooks we receive each time someone gets married, so we share a lot of family secrets through this blogging world!


While we try to eat a balanced diet and portray balance on our blog, Saturdays around Hidden Ponies are all about sweets.  Today’s Saturday Sweet is a great one because:

a) it’s really sweet! (a requirement, obvs :))

b) it’s not that bad for you! (some of our Saturday Sweets cannot make this claim :))

c) it’s pretty!

d) it’s light as a feather to hold!

e) it’s gluten free!

These are a cookie we were making before anyone had to eat gluten free (two of my sisters now do), before wheat was mutant and angry about being digested, before being gluten free was stylish and promised to make you skinnier.  We made these just because they are delicious.

Also, did I mention you make them and then just leave them in the oven overnight?

So fun – breakfast cookies!

Ok, I wouldn’t actually recommend eating these for breakfast because they are saaa-weet, as previously mentioned, but these are a seriously easy, seriously delicious cookie that’s special and different from the same ol’ (amazing, don’t get me wrong) chocolate chip cookies and other similar dough cookies.  These are also eeeensy small and lighter than air, perfect for eating more than one without feeling guilty!  They are crackly-crisp and tender at the same time, and pieces will probably fall on your floor if you give them to children.  (Ok, that’s not a probably, that one’s a definitely). I like these best straight out of the fridge or freezer.

Thanks again, Jennifer, for having me, and I hope some of you will come visit me over at my place, and keep giving Jennifer all the love and support she deserves over here!!

Author: Anna @ Hidden Ponies
Ingredients
  • 2 egg whites
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (milk chocolate tastes best)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Whip egg whites on high speed until stiff.
  3. Add sugar gradually, beating at high speed for 5 minutes longer. Fold in vanilla, chocolate chips and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto foil-lined cookie sheet. Foil is a must to prevent sticking - do not grease the foil. Put into the oven. TURN OVEN OFF. Leave cookies in oven overnight or for at least 8 hours. DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR. Makes about 3½ - 4 dozen small cookies.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for a very long time. If they last that long.

        My grandma used to make these with shredded coconut, semi-sweet chocolate chips and chipped walnuts. She made them around Christmas for as long as I can remember. Planning on making them this year since she passed in January and I haven’t had them in years. Something from my childhood that I can pass down to my kids and introduce them to the addiction these cookies create.

    These cookies look so lovely, I was thinking of making them for my sister’s baby shower but she is allergic to nuts. Do you think they could be made with coarsly crushed pretzels?

      They do look good and I am sure they’ll be a hit at your sister’s baby shower! I am not sure about the pretzel instead of nuts. Id say try it and see how they turn out!

    I have one of those newer type self-cooling ovens that doesn’t have the exposed bottom element, so these don’t do so well in my oven. Are there any other options that would work, like a lower temperature for a longer period of time? The lowest temp on my oven is 170 degrees. I love these and really hate not being able to make them anymore.
    Please respond to my email address.
    Thank you!

Hello Tuesday! We’ve had some nice weather this Hello Tuesday!  We’ve had some nice weather this week. It must have hit 70 yesterday. I’ll enjoy it while I can. Next week it’s supposed to back in the 50’s with chance of rain. Well at least I won’t have to worry about watering my garden.
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my Easter tablescapes. I wanted to go simple. I feel when there’s too much on the table, you have a hard time seeing the people across from you. Plus my table is only 5’ long, so I don’t have a lot of space.
🐰
I’m loving the blues and greens. It’s such a pretty color for Spring. I had a whole blue tablescape idea in my mind, but I’m having problems finding pieces that I like. I sure miss Pier1. That was my go to place for table setting decor.
🐰
What are your favorite colors for Spring?

Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Happy March 1st! Can you believe 19 more days till Spring and 14 more days until daylight savings. Oh the pure signs of warm weather and sunshine are coming.
🌸
I sure had a busy weekend. We had 5 yards of top soil delivered and my husband wheel barreled it all to the backyard. My new garden bed is just about ready for planting. I’m so excited!
🌸
Yesterday I worked on a bunch of photos to share this week. I must have formatted over a 100 pictures. No, I won’t be sharing that many. It’s just hard to find the right one. I’m sure you know what I mean.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos for the month of February.  I can’t wait to see what is in store for March, because I have no idea. Lol
🌸
What are you looking most forward to this month?

I just need a couple of little things, like a rug and some towels. Thank you so much for your suggestions. You put bad ideas in my head, but in a good way. Lol
🌸
I’m sharing with you my floral arrangement that I shared in a reel Monday. I just love it so much. It’s going to be the centerpiece to my Spring dining table. So it’ll make an another appearance soon. If I ever finish my table.
🌸
I also have to share with you the cute bunnies that I bought from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. I love them so much. The whitewash and flowers stole my heart. I just love bunnies. I may have gone bunny crazy this season.

Do you like to decorate with animals?

Hi Everyone! The weather is starting to warm up h Hi Everyone!  The weather is starting to warm up here and I have Spring fever!  #sponsored I’ve been working in the garden beds, planting annuals and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine.
🌸
I freshened up my gorgeous patio set that I got from @rstbrands. I dressed up my table by adding some Ranunculus and a cute little bunny to a tray. Doesn’t scream Spring?
🌸
I also added some throw pillows and a cute blanket to keep you warm on a chilly evening. The Yuri 4 piece patio set is made out of certified eucalyptus wood has held up so beautifully with the heavy rains and winds.
🌸
I love the shade of blue of the cushions, it reminds me of the sunny blue skies. The cushions are also so comfortable to sit on. The best part is that the covers have zippers on them so you can take the covers off and wash them.
🌸
Spring fever is hitting me hard this year and I can’t wait to enjoy the great outdoors.
🌸
Do you get Spring fever?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?
