Oreo and Kit Kat Cookies!!

Alright, here is our first post for August...can you believe it's August already?  Where has the time gone?   Sorry for the lack of blogging, I'll try to pick it up.   

As you all know, I love baking and I love cookies!  However, I'm not a huge fan of store bought packaged cookies (besides Oreo's and Mother's Taffy cookies)...I like homemade one or freshly baked ones from store. 

Tonight I decided to make some cookies as a treat for Jerm and me.  A few weeks ago, I made Picky Palate's Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookies (one of my favorite foodie blogs) .  Oh my gosh, they were so good.  We still had all the ingredients, therefore I decided to make them again.  As I pulled things together, I realized that I didn't have chocolate chips...but I did have 2 Kit Kat bars...hmmm.  Kit Kat's AND Oreo's in a cookie?!  Sign me up for that!  So, I just subbed the chopped up Kit Kat bars for the chocolate chips.  Of course, they turned out delicious...but honestly, what wouldn't be delicious with Oreo's and Kit Kat's?

Ingredients
