Mini Chocolate Chip Blondies

November 27, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 6 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I’m going to be upfront with you, I am not a good cookie!

I was given the assignment from DailyBuzz Food to have a cookie exchange or a cookie sale to help raise money for Cookies for Kids with Cancer, but I failed at my assignment.  I didn’t have the resources to have either.  I didn’t know where to turn, I cried and was devastated.  I didn’t want to let the kids down.  So I contacted DailyBuzz Food and told them my dilemma, they understood, but we agreed that I would still do a post for Cookies for Kids with Cancer because it is such a wonderful and worthy cause.  Since I couldn’t have a cookie sale, I am personally donating $100.00 to Cookies for Kids Cancer.


Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, a 501(c)3 non-profit, was founded by parents inspired by their son Liam’s battle with cancer. They were shocked to learn that the main reason over 25% of kids diagnosed with cancer do not survive is because of a lack of effective therapies. And the reason for the lack of therapies was very simple: lack of funding. They pledged to support the development of new and better treatments by giving people a simple way to get involved.  So what Gretchen (Mom) did was bake 96,000 cookies, yes 96,000!!!!  She sold them all within 3 weeks with the help of 250 volunteers and raised $400,000 to support Children under the age of 18 with Cancer.

Facts about Kids’ Cancers:
Cookies for Kids’ Cancer is not about one child or one type of pediatric cancer. It is about changing the facts of pediatric cancer  for the better, forever. Important statistics to know:
  • Cancer claims the lives of more children annually than any other disease ” more than asthma, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis & AIDS combined.
  • 46 children per day are diagnosed with cancer totaling nearly 13,000 new cases per year.
  • Cure rates have improved dramatically and advances in childhood cancer research has provided seminal insights into the cancer problem in general. Today, 4 out 5 children diagnosed with cancer can be cured.
  • While long-term goals for the pediatric cancer community will focus on securing more federal funding for childhood cancer research (more than the 1-2% of the National Cancer Institute budget that is current expended), philanthropy plays a critical and essential role in the ongoing battle against childhood cancer.

GLAD has teamed up with Cookie for Kids Cancer by having a virtual cookie exchange.  It’s free and all you have to do is donate a virtual cookie and every virtual cookie that is created GLADE will donate .55 cents to Cookie for Kids with Cancer.  It’s simple and fun!!  Please donate a virtual cookie, it only takes a second and you could help a kid with cancer.      As I am writing this, so far they have sent 3861 virtual cookie.  If we make it to 6500 cookies, glad will up their donation to .65 cents.  Plus GLAD is having a sweepstakes and you could win Sweet Baking Kits!  How cool is that.  All you have to do is go here and make a virtual cookie!!!  I made mine, and it’s cute!  It’s a Snowman Cookie with Holly’s decorated on the GLAD container!

The cookies I chose to make for Cookies for Kids Cancer is Mini Chocolate Chip Blondies!  I thought that most people and kids all love chocolate chip cookies, they are my personal top two favorite cookie, next to Peanut Butter.  But I didn’t want to make a traditional chocolate chip cookie, but I wanted to make one more like a little muffin!

The cookies are very simple to make.  I melted butter in a pot, and then added the rest of the ingredients to the same pot.  Gave it a good mixing and scooped the batter into a mini muffin tin.  I popped them in the oven for 10 minutes and out came these adorable little cookies.  To give them a little more holiday pizzazz, I decided to use holiday color chocolate chips, because it’s more festive!!

The cookies turned out wonderful!  They are crispy on the outside and soft and chocolaty on the inside.  These would make a fabulous cookie for shipping, which is what I plan to do.  If your inclined you could also make these in a standard muffin tin and when they are still warm, top one with a little bit of ice cream and have it as a dessert!!  I will tell you, when making the cookies, be sure to spray your tin or muffin liners with lots of cooking spray, they tend to stick.  I used a butter knife to get the out and a bang on the counter and they popped out.  Just be sure to let them completely cool in the pan before trying to remove the cookie.

Happy Wednesday friends! I wanted to share how I s Happy Wednesday friends! I wanted to share how I styled my media table. I’ve been looking at the table for a few days and I couldn’t figure out what it was missing, then I remember that I was gifted some beautiful potpourri from @myclaireburke.

I ran and grabbed my dough bowl and filled it with Claire Burke Christmas Memories Potpourri that filled the room with the scent of cinnamon, cloves and Christmas trees. It’s perfect! The potpourri has gold and red accents in it. There are large and baby pinecones with white snow on them, and pinecones dipped in gold. This is the perfect potpourri for the season.
🦌
Claire Burke is currently running a Cyber 30% off sale. No code required. Great time to stock up on Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers. The link is in my bio.

I also wanted to share my gorgeous art work from my friends @12timbers. It’s the perfect piece of art that will work all season long. 12 Timbers is having 20% off everything cyber sale. Code: CYBERMONDAY23

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!

Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great start to the month. I received the cutest fragrance package from @myclaireburke. I couldn’t wait to add these wonderful fragrances to my home.
🍎
The scent I received is Apple Jack & Peel. It’s fresh apples with cinnamon and a hint of citrus. It smells like fall. Reminds me of when we go to Apple Hill to go apple picking, which we will be doing next week.
🍎
The scent is warm and cozy and the candle and potpourri is so pretty. Not only do these look so pretty in my home, but they would make such a wonderful housewarming gift. I wish you could smell them.
🍎
If you are looking for Fall and Winter scented fragrances. I highly recommend checking out @myclaireburke
🍎
Have a great day!
