(figure 1) Last night I had a weird dream, In my dream I was hosting a birthday party, not sure for who. At this party they had a mega candy bar...with a billion different jars (fig.1) of candy...They had every imaginable gummi candy every made. They also had any other candy you would ever want. But there was a trick to all this candy. You had to answer really impossible trivia like jeopardy questions to get any..In the end the party was a disaster cause all the kids were in tears and we were left with 9 million pounds of candy. I have always wanted to have a candy bar at my party, full of anything gummi imaginable..But when I look at it the expense is really just to much money. Last year at Longwood Gardens, they had 2 wonderful gingerbread houses made by a local bakery. The room was also decorated with apothecary jars of candy. Much to my disappointment at the end of the display all the candy was destroyed.

Oreo Pudding Cookies

Source: Sweet Treats And More

1 cup butter, room temperature

3/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup white sugar 1 (4.2 ounce) package instant Oreo Pudding mix 2 1/4 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 Hershey's Cookies N Cream Candy Bars broken into small pieces (I used 2.6 ounce King Sized bars) 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips Note: I found Oreo Pudding mix at my grocery store but I also saw it at our Walmart and Target. Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl and set aside. Cream together butter and sugars. Beat in pudding mix until blended. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix to combine. Stir in cookies n' cream pieces and chocolate chips. Batter will be thick. Using a cookie dough scooper, place golf ball sized dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. You do not want to overbake these! Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet before moving to a cooking rack. Store in air-tight container. Makes two dozen. Individual Seven-Layer Dips

Makes about 8 individual dips

*Note: All measurements are approximate. Depending on whether you want thicker or thinner layers you will need more or less. 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans

1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning

1 cup guacamole or make homemade guacamole

1 (8 ounce) container sour cream

1 cup chunky salsa or pico de gallo; or make homemade pico de gallo

1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

2 Roma tomatoes, diced

1/2 bunch of green onions, sliced

1 (2.25 ounce) can of sliced olives, drained

9 ounce plastic tumblers

tortilla chips

Directions:

In a small bowl mix taco seasoning with refried beans. Some people prefer to mix their taco seasoning with the sour cream layer but I wanted a bright white layer so I did it with the beans.

Here's how the layers are assembled:

Layer 1: beans and taco seasoning

Layer 2: sour cream

Layer 3: guacamole

Layer 4: salsa or pico de gallo

Layer 5: cheese

Layer 6: tomatoes

Layer 7: green onions and olives

In each plastic glass, layer about 2 Tablespoons of the beans, followed by 2 Tablespoons of sour cream, 2 Tablespoons of guacamole, 2 Tablespoons of salsa or pico de gallo, and 2 Tablespoons of cheese. Make sure you drain your salsa or pico to get the excess liquid out before you pour it on. Then top with about 1-2 teaspoons of tomatoes, olives, and green onion (If making ahead of time, wait to add these toppings until shortly before serving). Garnish with one tortilla chip. Store in the refrigerator until serving and serve with chips. Makes around 8 individual dips.
