I’d decided to move away from cupcakes for a little while, even though I ordered myself some new piping tips that arrived recently. I know they’re so passé and all, but I like making them better than I like making whole cakes, plus, they’re more fun/easier to decorate. However, I’m getting a bit burned out on them, so I turned my attention to my other baking love: Cookies. And I came across the perfect recipe.
Salted Mudslide Cookies, from How Sweet Eats.
I’m really into sweet-salty combos right now, and more “adult” treats with alcohol in them, because that’s about the only way the booze gets used up in my house!
I did change the recipe slightly…I used Baileys as well as Kahlua, even though the original recipe only calls for Kahlua. A Mudslide just isn’t a Mudslide without the Baileys, as far as I’m concerned.

Oh wow…Salty, sweet, chocolatey…Boozy, even! So so very delicious! I’ve had the recipe in the back of my mind for ages, and I’m SO glad I finally got around to making it. If you’ll excuse me now, though, I have a date with a pile of cookies and a gallon of milk!
I want a bite!
I still have a few left, believe it or not! :)
Salty, sweet, boozy…all my favorites! :)
Haha–Me too!
Rachel, sweet, salty, boozy? It’s all so wrong… and yet so right! These look heavenly.
Oh, they are so very very good…So much so that I ended up giving what I had left to a coworker, so I didn’t finish them all off myself!
Holy Heck those look good. I use to blend up a boatload of mudslides in my younger years. And now in a cookie form? Brilliant. We’re having a bake sale for charity at work next month, and I think I’m going to make THOSE! Kuddos my friend :)
I am a big fan of mudslides, even now. :) You’ll have to let me know what you think, if you make ’em!
