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!!

  • 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.

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!

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!
