Today was absolutely amazing!   71 degrees and sunny.  (Two weeks after we were hammered by a blizzard).  Great weather meant two walks for Charlie, which made him very happy. And since he’s 13, we have to do that as much as we can as long as we can. ( I see so many of you have lost pets the last couple of years and I know how excruciating it is)

My treats for work are cake batter cookies with white and chocolate chips. Just a blog post, hoping to do another video recipe Monday, my next off day.  I really appreciate all your kind words about my blog posts and my video debut.

Ingredients – 3/4 cup butter (softened), 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 egg, 1 tsp butter extract (you can use vanilla if you prefer), 1 cup yellow or white  cake mix , 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 cup white chips, 1 cup chocolate chips.

Cream butter, brown sugar and sugar.  Add egg and butter extact.  Mix in dry ingredients.  Fold in chips.  Use nice cream scoop to roll into mounds. Chill a few hours.  Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 min.  Store in covered containee.
