Party at Miki's!

So tonight, I had a few lady friends over for a little get together... I of course was excited because I got to cook and bake for my friends!

The menu was this:

1. Pasta Salad with Roasted Balsamic Vegetables and Feta Cheese
2. Vegetarian Chili

3. Cocoa and Cinnamon Popcorn

4. Cherry-White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

The only thing that I used a recipe for was the cookies. I starred it in my google reader because they described my favorite kind of oatmeal cookies: Crispy and Chewy! The recipe can be found here at Taste Buds.

I didn't want to use milk chocolate chips, and I had bought a bag of tart cherries earlier today at Trader Joe's so I made Cherry-White Chocolate Oatmeal cookies :-)

Oh.My.Fu**.... these were effin good. They were exactly how they described them. Crispy and chewy in the right spots. The edges were nice and crispy. The middle had an awesome chew and the oats definitely helped. And what can I say about the perfection of sour cherries and sweet white chocolate?
