Ok, Santa, I received my package today and it has no smell, the dogs sniffed it all over! It does have a JINGLE though!

Is it a new embroidery machine? LOL

Why don't we all KNIT some socks while we are waiting for our opening day? Hand knit socks are the best there is!

O.K. recipe time!
Chocolate Surprise Cookies
1 C butter, softened
1 C sugar
1 C firmly packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 1/4 C All purpose flour
3/4 C cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp vanilla
1 C chopped pecans, divided
1 tbsp sugar
1 (9-ounce) package chewy caramels in milk chocolate

Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Gradually add sugars, beating well. Add eggs, beating well. Combine flour, cocoa and soda; add to butter mixture, mixing well. Stir in vanilla and 1/2 C chopped pecans. Cover dough and refrigerate 1 hour.

Combine remaining 1/2 C pecans and 1 tbsp. sugar; set aside.

Gently press 1 tbsp cookie dough around each candy, forming a ball. Dip 1 side of cookie in pecan mixture. Place, pecan side up, 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Cookies look soft.....let cool 1 minute on baking sheets; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Yield: 4 dozen
