According to some people, the thing that is missing from chocolate chip cookies is that it is not enough cookie. So how do you solve that? Well just stuff it with an Oreo, of course!
If you have ever looked at Pinterest, I’m sure you have seen these monsterous cookies. Everyone seems to have their own version.
And why not? They surprisingly easy and very versitile. Just grab your favorite chocolate chip cookie receipe and smoosh it around an Oreo, then bake until done. It’s that easy. Really.

Just a few weeks ago, I attended my first Blind Tasting Bingo event with Nostrana’s Cathy Whims, hosted by Edible Portland. It was a super fun, completely strange experience, eating blindfolded and then trying to guess what it was you just ate. While that meal was delicious, I was particularly excited about the second Blind Bingo I was going to attend with Kim Boyce, an amazing James Beard winning pastry chef.
Last Tuesday was truly a day of face-stuffing goodness. With over 60 restaurants, wineries, breweries and distilleries present at the 2013 Taste of the Nation, everyone there was bound to eat and drink really well and have a great time.
Taste of the Nation is by far one of my favorite events of the year – almost all the best places in Oregon come to share their products and it all goes to a good cause, with 100% of ticket and silent auction sales going to Share Our Strength, an organization with a mission to end childhood hunger.
