I looooove baking with Quaker oats and have declared oatmeal cookie dough about the best thing on earth.
In honor of my kids’ stellar report cards, I announced I was making a special treat for them. And then I proceeded to get knee-deep into baking, only to realize I didn’t have all the ingredients (who else can relate?)
The recipe for Fudge Jumbles is supposed to have a creamy chocolate filling but since I didn’t have enough chocolate chips, I adapted with what I had and also added butterscotch chips and white chocolate chips…and it turned out better than the original. The evidence? I took this treat to two friends and they texted me within five minutes begging for the recipe. Enjoy!
Also, don’t forget that Breckenridge is THE place to be Friday, Saturday and Sunday (Dec. 11-13, 2015). We’re joining forces with the PepsiCO #NSPIRE team and will be hanging out at their new innovative kitchen on wheels in Breckenridge where Quaker will be helping you reinvent how you eat your oatmeal with unique recipes from PepsiCo Chef Jody Denton, as well as letting you sample new drinks from Tropicana like Farmstand Tropical Greens.
