Chocolate Sheet Cake Cookies

The few I've tried are the Banana Blondies, Marshmallow Blondies, Chocolate Sheet Cake Cookies and (my post coming soon) Southern Tea Cakes. All have been delicious. Cookies and Cups is definitely my new favorite blog for baking. I hope you will stop by her blog and say hi to Shelly. Many thanks to her for all these delicious recipes!
