0:00
- I'm fixing to do something, y'all,
0:03
that's gonna give you the best of both worlds,
0:07
a Georgia cookie candy.
0:10
That sounds pretty good.
0:12
And we don't even have to turn the oven on for this.
0:15
All right, now we're gonna start out
0:17
with our food processor, about one and a half cups
0:22
of graham cracker crumbs, some crunchy peanut butter.
0:30
And I'm doing this in the food processor,
0:32
'cause this is gonna represent the cookie,
0:41
I want that peanut butter out of that.
0:45
And we're gonna throw in two sticks of butter
0:51
that are naturally softened to room temperature.
1:04
And, we're gonna add our confectioner's sugar.
1:10
And, we're gonna just process this, y'all,
1:12
until it forms a ball.
1:17
We'll make a ball when it's done.
1:20
And over here on the stove I'm melting some chocolate chips
1:26
because that's gonna be our candy layer.
1:32
Don't be afraid to stop your processor,
1:38
Now you can spread this in your hand
1:46
So, since my hands are clean,
1:47
and I've already gotten 'em messed up,
1:51
I'm just gonna finish doing it by hand.
1:54
And, we have lined a 13 x 9 x 2 pan.
2:07
Just gonna spread this out evenly in our pan.
2:12
And, there's two sticks of butter in this cookie part,
2:16
so I think it will cut nice, I just can't remember.
2:22
But, anyway, I sprayed it very, very lightly just in case.
2:29
Just in case it wanted to test me.
2:50
So the warmth of your hand will help
2:53
make that real spreadable.
2:57
Like I said, you wanna just do it as evenly as you can.
3:13
What are you doing, Cookie Monster?
3:15
- [Michael] I'm having some more famous tuna salad.
3:17
- Oh, with Vanilla Wafers?
3:20
- [Michael] (indistinct)
3:21
- Oh, I thought you had Vanilla Wafers.
3:25
All right, look at our chocolate,
3:28
it's nice and melted.
3:30
So, now, I'm just gonna spread this
3:35
over the cookie part,
3:43
and just spread it all over y'all.
3:46
Michael, I'm making a candy cookie,
3:48
a cookie candy. (laughs)
3:51
- [Michael] I'm on a diet.
3:55
but $1 to a doughnut I bet you'll try this.
3:58
- [Michael] Well, the thing is...
4:01
- That's a safe bet, isn't it?
4:04
- [Michael] That's probably why
4:05
my diet is not working so well.
4:19
- Our oven's calling us.
4:29
All right, now, we're gonna need to refrigerate this
4:38
and let it get nice and firm.
4:43
- [Theresa] Can I take it for you?
4:48
- [Theresa] Thank you.
4:53
- Yes, we will. (laughs)
4:55
Eddie, you wanna see who's hanging over your right shoulder?
5:04
- [Michael] The tester.
5:06
- All right, Michael, this is called
5:09
a Georgia cookie candy.
5:14
You think you're gonna like it?
5:17
I wish you would have made more than one though.
5:23
Like I said, you don't wanna use a serrated knife
5:28
on the last couple of things that I've made
5:39
'cause it will make it tear up.
5:41
And this isn't really cooled enough, we're rushing it,
5:50
- [Michael] Thank you.
5:51
- You're gonna have to hold it together.
6:03
- [Michael] Tastes like Reese's Pieces.
6:05
- Mm-hmm, that's what it was supposed to do.
6:18
- [Michael] This is gonna easier diet to stick to.
6:25
You know what, I'm wondering,
6:29
I bet I could have molded the cookie part
6:34
in the shape of an egg,
6:37
and then poured the chocolate on top of it,
6:40
and we'd a had chocolate covered eggs.
6:43
I might have to try that.
6:45
- [Michael] Easter's coming.
6:46
- That's why I'm doing this, for Easter, Easter.
6:50
You want another little bit or you good?
6:53
- [Michael] No, that's good.
6:54
- Yeah, moderation, moderation.
6:59
- [Michael] Ed will have that piece.
7:03
- [Michael] It broke in half,
7:04
I guess I'll have half.
7:07
- I'm gonna give you the little half.
7:11
Love and best dishes, y'all.
7:13
It helps to have a Cookie Monster in the house
7:15
when you got a lot of cookies.
7:17
- [Michael] Mm. (Paula laughs)
7:21
Hey, y'all, it's Paula Deen.
