Weekend Uppers

Have you ever decided that you will spend an entire weekend in total abandon and be completely care-free?  
You will eat and drink everything imaginable that is sinful, do everything bordering on criminal and get wasted on anything irrelevant and insignificant, just because?  This weekend I plan to do nothing but curl up and watch stupid chick flicks, eat, drink, make some nom-nom cookies, throw my books, sleep, keep my sleepwear on the whole day, dip in the tub if I start to smell my own stink, and do nothing that can be superficially looked at as relevant and life-changing.  It'll be a test for myself.
I thought I may as well share with you a weekend sugar overload recipe (I intend to bake as a treat for ME) that is so criminal and sinful, albeit irresistible and absolutely fattening delightful!
At this point, I would like to invoke my right of free speech in my Blog and be rid of any responsibility or accountability for attendant untoward sugar rushes or inch/pound gain.
Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 sticks softened butter
3/4 Cup packed light brown sugar
1 Cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla
3 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oz bag chocolate chips
1 bag Oreo Cookies, I used the double stuff 
1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.   In a stand or electric mixer cream butter and sugars until well combined.  Add in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
2.  In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda.  Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.  Using a cookie scoop take one scoop of cookie dough and place on top of an Oreo Cookie.  Take another scoop of dough and place on bottom of Oreo Cookie.  Seal edges together by pressing and cupping in hand until Oreo Cookie is enclosed with dough.  Place onto a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet and bake cookies 9-13 minutes or until cookies are baked to your liking.  Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.  
Serve with a tall glass of milk, enjoy!
Makes about 2 dozen VERY LARGE Cookies 
Credits go to: Picky Palate
That one should be relatively easy if you are into cookie baking, but if you want something simpler and promises to give you a glorious "high":
You can opt to use this margarine in any food item of your liking.  Its not my place to tell you how and where. 
Food for Thought for the eternally cerebral:
PHILOSOPHER - a fool who torments himself during life to be wise
ETC. - a sign to make others believe that you know more than you do

Have a heavenly weekend!

Very sexy ! speaking of which those cookies are hot looking. i could eat the whole batch with some milk. i like to swing back and forth between being health obsessed and like caligula. the best of both worlds

  6. Thanks for the comments guys. Yeah, I love me some cookies too! Booyah!
    Heterochromia, when your eyes are of two different colours. I have a slight heterochromia. Thanks River, not a lot of people find it sexy. Mila Kunis and Demi Moore carry it quite stunningly.
    I feel happy now that I am NOT the only one sinfully eating these yummies! Have a good one!
