I’ve been organizing a ladies night gathering for 2 years now. We get together once a month. Last night we met at Produce Row. We catch up, gossip, talk dating strategies, talk race schedules, and life in general. I like to bring treats. Its better for me to bake when I have people to share my treats with. Then they are not sitting in the kitchen waiting for me to eat them!
Here are a few treats I’ve made:
Yesterday I was noodling over what to bring to dinner. I saw these caramelita cookies on Cookies and Cups the other day. They looked delicious. They were different from my normal chocolate and peanut butter routine. This is what I went for and glad I did!

I made only half of the recipe. I thought I definitely did not need to have 40 cookies lying around. I did manage to only eat 1 bite of cookie dough, 1 rolo, and 2 of the cookies(that fell apart because they were stuck to the pan).
These women typically only eat (maybe) 1 cookie but last night the container was just about gone before we had even ordered dinner.
They were definitely a hit!! Ryan, our waiter, even managed to get one before the last ones were fought over! Had I known they were going to be so popular I would have made the entire batch! If you would like the recipe, you can find it here: Caramelita Cookies All her recipes are amazing! IF and WHEN you make these, make sure all of the rolo is covered equally with the dough cause it will stick to your pan.

Thanks Ladies for joining me every month and enjoying my treats.





What a great time! But your first mistake was to make a HALF BATCH! You should have made a DOUBLE BATCH! Girl~~~!!!
I never know! If I had made th double batch…I would have been begging people to eat them! Murphey’s Law!!
Yummy!
Hey girl – thank you for always a great monthly girls night! Just a hint, use parchment paper
Thanks for the tip Robin!!
Wish I could be there! Sounds like a lot of fun! Since having the boys, my sweet tooth has kicked up a notch! Will have to try the cookies! Yummy!
Ash—Wait until you see the recipe I post today!! You have to try them!!
Those cookies sound delicious, and I love that you gals gather monthly!
They were delicious! I would never see half of the gals if I did not organize a dinner!
