Reese’s Brownie Cups

01/22/2012

Okay, so I revisited making cookies using Reese's peanut butter cups.  I thought perhaps I could make things easier by using an easy cookie recipe.  I tried some Cake Mix Cookies, and thought I would wrap a peanut butter cup inside.I failed again.  Well, on the putting the peanut butter cup inside ...

Hello, and welcome! I'm Adrianne, an artist, author, designer, and blogger in mid Michigan. I work from home, chase my two kids, and this once-city-girl is learning how to care for chickens and adjusting to life out in the country. I have a compulsion for daily creativity... sometimes it's jewelry-making, paper crafting, metal stamping, mixing and baking, or giving new life to recycled items. But with 2 young kids, time is short! My goal here at Happy Hour Projects is to share projects and tips that you can do in an hour or less. The ideas you find here are designed to add a little creativity in your day, no matter how much (or how little) time you have!
