Happy New Year

We're about to take off for a party. I just wanted to wish you all a happy and safe New Year. I hope you all have fun, whether it's at home, at a party, out to dinner, etc. as we bid farewell to 2008 and say hello to 2009!

In addition to the Oreo truffles, I decided to make a cookie cake and decorate it in honor of the holiday. It didn't come out as well as I wanted (I need some serious practice on my writing), but I guess it's still cute:

I used the Thick & Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, but obviously just spread the dough into a pizza pan. I sprayed the pan liberally with nonstick spray, and I only spread the dough out to about 1-2 inches from the edges to allow for spreading. I baked at 325 degrees for approximately 20-25 minutes.

Hopefully my fellow party-goers will enjoy.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
