Milk Jar Cookies

I finally tried Milk Jar after hearing how amazing it was, and I am certainly into it. It still not my favorite cookie, but pretty awesome.  Above is the Rocky Road, my favorite out of the ones I tried - super chocolatey!

This is the chocolate chip walnut which somewhat reminded me of the Levain cookie.

This was the pecan caramel chocolate cookie, super sweet and gooey!

My Homemade Hello Dolly Bars

I wanted to make a party treat and thought these Hello Dolly Bars looked perfect! I used this recipe, which was very easy and quick.



First I mixed the graham cracker crumbs in with a stick of melted butter...



Then pressed the graham cracker into the bottom of the pan...



Layered coconut, pecans, butterscotch and chocolate chips...



Topped it off with some sweetened condensed milk, and baked for 25 minutes.



I cut them into very small squares, since they are so sweet.



They are really good, perfectly salty and sweet. Next time I might swap out the butterscotch for peanut butter chips.

Delilah Bakery

Last Sunday morning I went to Delilah Bakery in Echo Park on the way to the LA Flea Market. The bakery itself was very cute, it reminded me of a doll house. They had a lot of cakes, cupcakes, muffins and scones


I loved how they used this dresser for the milk and straws and held the sugar in the drawers.


Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin - This was really good, I loved how big the chocolate chips were. Something about it reminded me of Starbucks' reduced fat chocolate chip banana bread, which isn't a bad thing!


If it wasn't 10 am when I went, I would have tried these.. they look so good. I'll just have to go back!
