Fall Cookies & Questions!

Yummy. I heart these cookies. The secret to these is not overbaking them. They taste so good soft with frosting inbetween.
I have a question for my readers......I have been getting traffic off of stumbleupon but I can't find the link to my blog - could someone give me that link? Or, how do you find your baked goods on stumbleupon?
And one more question...I am wondering who all my readers are & have any of you guys tried my recipes?

"Chocolate Sandwich Cookies"

2 devils food cake mix
4 eggs
2/3 cup oil
DIRECTIONS:
In a bowl, lightly beat eggs and oil together. Combine into cake mixes in large bowl. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Flatten softly with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. Leave on pan for 3-4 minutes before removing to wire rack. Cook completely before frosting with cream cheese frosting between two cookies.
"Homemade Buttercream Frosting"
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 cups confectioners sugar
2 tbsp. milk
DIRECTIONS:
Beat butter. Add confectioners sugar and milk.
***You may need more powdered sugar or more milk to reach the consistency or taste you like**

Hi! : )
I'm in SE MN...I'm sure I've tried recipes from your blog because your blog is fabulous! : ) I *think* your link is http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=s32ppp32 but I could be wrong...no idea how you find baked goods on it...didn't know that was possible! : )

Priscilla,
I remember the first time I got a plate of these cookies from my neighbor, I was hooked ever since. They are my favorite cake mix cookie hands down! Yours look so cute with the orange frosting!

Hi! I'm in NC, and I've tried several of your recipies. The marshmallow bars have been my favorites so far. I was planning to try the banana chocolate muffins this weekend, but I may forego those for the sandwich cookies! YUM! Keep up the good work! ~LA

Well, Iam one reader from So Ca ;)
I have a few maps on my blog that tells me where my readers are from, but not who they are, that why I also asked, and made a reader blog roll of them :)

I'm confused about SU also, I think you have to download it for it to work right.

Hi, Priscilla,

I am a friend of Sara B, your piano teacher. She told me about your blog a few months ago, and I have tried a couple of your recipes. They are fabulous! These cookies look good, and simple (which is a plus!). I will have to try them. Thanks!

I've made some of your recipes. One that comes to mind is the brownies with the cookie dough on top. Loved them!
Cake mix cookies are great!
Love the Halloween filling!

These look perfect, Priscilla, and I think my kids would love these for Halloween. Yes, I have tried your corn dip over the weekend and I enjoyed that. It gets to be addictive, doesn't it? I didn't get a chance to photograph it so I need to make another batch so I can post about it and link to you. I need to give these cookies a try as well.

La Bella Cooks said...

well, i found you through StumbleUpon so i can attempt to help with your question. essentially, you use it as a sort of middle man to find websites on topics that suit your interests. You can select something like 150 subjects of interest and it randomly shows you pages when you "Stumble". users can add any page to the database by loading the SU toolbar, and clicking "I like it" while visiting the site. So, once a site is added under a certain category (ie, Cooking, Blogs, etc) any user who has checked the same interest may stumble over it.
Its actually a fantastic tool, and unbelievably quick and easy. You can even narrow your "stumbles" to only blogs, or videos, or sites recommended by your friends.
Hope that helps a little! The cookies look great! : )
