we just went strawberry picking so of course we have to have fun making allllll the strawberry treats!

recipe—
preheat oven to 350F
in a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup melted butter + 1 cup dark brown sugar + 1 1/2 cup oats + 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour + 1 tsp baking powder 
press down 2/3 of it into a lined/oiled 8x8 dish 
mash 2 cups strawberries and evenly spread over the base of the bars 
sprinkle remaining crumble on top 
bake for 45-50 min or until top is golden and strawberries are bubbling 
allow to cool before cutting into bars
is there anything a colorful chocolate chunk can’t fix? 🍪

to be completely transparent, it’s absolutely impossible to be a full time mom and trying to create any kind of content. to be fully present with your kids and not on my phone in front of them means giving up a lot of other things that take up your time.. which is why you may (or may not) have noticed how much less I’ve been posting. 

my priorities have shifted, they’re childhood is sacred and I’ll bake when I can. this page and this community still means the world to me and I still love connecting with all of you! 

anyway here’s the recipe for the BEST cookies—
heat 6 tbsp salted butter over medium-high heat
stir often until it starts foaming and bubbling (about 5 min) should turn a golden brown color!
in a bowl, mix together 3/4 cup brown sugar + 1/4 cup organic cane sugar
add in browned butter + 4 tbsp softened butter + 2 tsp vanilla and cream together
whisk in 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
add in 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour + 1/2 tsp baking soda
fold in cut up dark chocolate bar + colorful chocolate candies 
scoop on a lined baking sheet and bake at 375F for 10 min
