In a medium bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.  In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugars (with hand mixer).  Add one egg at a time.  Add your flour mix from the medium size bowl.  Mix until completely blended.  The dough will be a little sticky so use flour on your hands when handling.  Form into a ball in the center of your bowl, cover with plastic and sit in the freezer for 45 minutes.

Divide dough in half and put the other half in the fridge.  On a piece of parchment paper, pat dough into a rectangle and roll it our evenly.

Combine 1/4 C butter, brown sugar and cinnamon for filing.  Spread half evenly onto rolled out dough.  Use plastic wrap to help roll the dough tightly into a log.  Freeze for another 45 minutes or until it's set enough to slice and not mash the shape of the cookies.

Prepare the other half of dough the same way.

Prehear oven to 350.  Remove dough from freezer and slice into 1/2" cookies.  Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet about 2" parat.  Bake 10  minutes only!

Cool on wire rack.  Spread icing thinly onto the cookies with a small spatula.  Sprinkle lightly with espresso powder or cinnamon on top for decoration.  Let icing set before stacking!

Icing:  Mix confectioner's sugar and espresso powder.  Blend butter and vanilla.  Add milk one T at a time until desired consistency is reached.  Should be a little thicker than a glaze but thinner than regular icing.

Grilled Pork Chops w/ Berries and Couscous

Ingredients:
5t EVOO
1 small red onion
1 pint blueberries
2T sugar
1 lemon
salt/pepper
4 bone in pork chops (we used 2 for just the two of us)
1 box couscous
2/3 C parsley

Prep:
Pre-heat Grill.

While the grill is heating, heat 1t EVOO over medium heat; add onion and cook until soft (@ 10 min) stir in blueberries, sugar, lemon juice (from the lemon) and 1/2t pepper.  Simmer until thickened (@15 min)

Here is what the "compote" will look like once it's ready:

Brush the pork chops with 2t EVOO and season with salt and pepper. Grill (take about 25 min. on the grill for a thicker chop cut) and then let stand.

In a saucepan, prepare the couscous according to the package directions (instead of juice I used Water and instead of butter I used olive oil to make it healthier).  Fluff with a fork then add in parsley, lemon zest (from the same lemon) and 2t EVOO. Season with salt/pepper.

Spoon couscous onto plate.  Add the chops and any juices and spoon berry compote on top! :)


This dish was delicious and we LOVED the  blueberry compote- it's so good on chops!  The couscous comes in MANY different flavors and this was actually our first time trying it out so we used the original flavor.  While it was plain it was still delicious and we're anxious to try other flavors of couscous (this is like a mixture of gritz/rice and it's soo good!)

Happy Cooking!!!

Cinnamon Chip Cookies!!!

Mmm these cookies are the best!  This is a special recipe that my Aunt uses and instead of Chocolate Chips, she put Cinnamon chips in them and OMG they are so good!  The only problem is finding the Cinnamon Chips- my Aunt mails them to me because we don't have them here, it seems to be a Northern thing, but maybe if you have a Meyers you can find them! Here is what the bag looks like...

Now, lets get cookin' and make these cookies!!

Ingredients:
1 Cup butter
1 C sugar
1 C brown sugar
2 eggs
1t Vanilla
2 1/2 C oatmeal (grind in a blender or food processor until powder form)
1/2 t salt
1t baking powder
1t baking soda
1/2 regular size bag of Cinnamon Chips (can replace with Chocolate Chips if you can't find Cinnamon chips)

Prep:
Melt butter.  Add sugar and brown sugar, eggs and vanilla.  In separate bowl add all dry ingredients.  Take 2 1/2 cups of oatmeal and blend into blender or food processor until powder form.  Mix all by hand and add in 1/2 bag of Cinnamon chips. 

Place golf ball sized balls on an ungreased cookie sheet. I use parchment paper to help them peel off easier and keep my cookie sheets less messy :)

Bake cookies in a pre-heated (350 degrees) oven for 10 min or just until lightly brown.  This makes a TON of cookies :)

Enjoy, these are a sure success and something different!
