White Chocolate MM Cookies

I texted my niece last weekend "What kind of cookies do you want?" and the reponse-"White Chocolate M&M." Ummmmm....is there even such a thing? Turns out, there is. Along with pretzel, dark chocolate, coconut and a variety of other flavors that I can't remember. M&Ms sure have come a long way from milk chocolate or peanut.
Whenever I substitute candy for chocolate chips I use the standard Nestle Toll House chocolate chip cookie recipe. The result this time- good but not great. Probably because I'm not a huge fan of white chocolate but everyone else seemed to love them. I want to try the pretizel ones next.

 Packaged and ready for delivery. I got these cute treat bags in the dollar section at Target.

Have you tried White Chocolate M&Ms? What did you think?

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

This was my first time working with yeast outside of using a bread machine. I promised myself I wouldn't get frustrated which was a good thing because my first yeast packet didn't bubble like it was supposed to so I started over by proofing it first then adding it to the other ingredients. Second time was a charm and all the other steps was a cinch after that. I used a white chocolate ganache for the frosting rather than what the recipe called for but next time I'm going to try the butterscotch glaze.

 These taste even better than they look.

 My cute little dough ball.

 Dough ball rising just like it's supposed to.

 I added pecans before rolling it.

 Hot from the oven and ready for white chocolate goodness.

So yummy.

 I had to stop myself from eating the whole pan by myself.

The recipe I used is from Sugar Plum.
