Tasty Treat Tuesday: Carmelitas

September 18, 2012 by Leave a Comment

I pinned this a couple of days ago on Pinterest and several people have repinned it since then so I thought I would share it with you too.  If the picture isn’t enough of a sell, then here is what the maker has to say about it.  Carmelitas are “like a buttery oatmeal cookie that swallowed a caramel-filled chocolate bar and then got bibitty-bobitty-booed by the dessert fairy godmother and received an extra dose of deliciousness.”  Thanks for the recipe Lulu the Baker!  I cannot wait to make these, but no promises on sharing with the family.

Here’s what you need to make these:

  • 32 caramel squares, unwrapped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

September 4, 2012 by Leave a Comment


With the temperatures here in Texas still hitting 100 degrees, I am all about no bake dessert recipes.  I will do just about anything to keep me from having to turn my oven on and heat my house up even more!  This recipe claims to be almost fudge-like and semi-healthy.  I am sold!  Thanks New Nostalgia.

Here’s what you need to make these:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 2/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (no substitutes, this is what gives its creamy texture and flavor)
  • 2 cups oats (not instant)
  • 1 1/4 cups mini chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
