1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury refrigerated chocolate chip cookies
1/3 cup all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS:
1: Heat oven to 350°F. Break up cookie dough in large bowl. Stir or knead in flour until well blended.
2: Shape tablespoonfuls of dough into balls. Roll the balls in the pecans and press the pecans into dough a bit by rolling each peacan covered ball between your hands. Place balls 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
3: Bake 12 to 16 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Remove from oven, and using handle of wooden spoon, immediately make an indentation in center of each cookie. Cool 1 minute then remove from cookie sheet to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
4: Microwave caramels and half-and-half (or milk) in a microwavable bowl uncovered on High 1 to 2 minutes, stirring every 10 to 15 seconds, until caramels are melted.
5: Spoon about 1 teaspoonful of caramel into indentation of each cookie. Cool 15 minutes.
6: Melt chocolate in microwave on high in 10 second intervals stirring after each until melted. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies using a spoon then sprinkle with salt. Let stand about 15 minutes or until chocolate is set, or place in refrigerator or even the freezer to speed up that time.
Darlene’s Tips: You could totally skip the pecans if you want. No need to roll the balls into anything. Or use different nuts if you prefer. Salt is optional too. If you like the look of the crystals but don’t want the salt, sprinkle with coarse sugar instead.

WALMART ROLLBACK – Fiskars 45 mm Classic Stick Rotary Cutter – Only $6.21 (reg $9.99)
I have this exact rotary cutter and I love it!!! I need to pick up one or two more at this price and will keep one for paper crafts!
Grab a 10 Pack of Refill Blades too! I have these blades and I’m still on my first refill blade even after cutting tons of fabric. The refill is lasting longer than the original blade! At this price, you can always have a sharp new blade in your cutter!
Most items SHIP FREE to home with $35 purchase
Or order online and choose FREE Store Pickup (if available)
NOTE: Clearance items are not always available in your store. They might be only in the warehouse. Many items can be ordered online and sent to your store and you can pick it up for free. If you don’t like or it does not fit, you can return it directly to the store. So easy!
Availability can change at any time. Once the clearance deals are posted, stuff sells out quick so these deals may be limited or no longer available.
SHOPPING TIP: If you get close to the $35 minimum, simply order other stuff you always buy including groceries! There are more and more grocery items available on Walmart.com now that you can have shipped to your home. I love ordering the big and heavy stuff for home delivery like 20 rolls of toiler paper or big jugs of laundry detergent, stuff like that. I do about half of my grocery shopping on Walmart.com now. So convenient!

INGREDIENTS:
check for ingredient coupons here
1 box Betty Crocker Super Moist yellow cake mix (or any brand)
3/4 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup
optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts
(see my tips below)
See my Darlene’s Concoctions videos!
DIRECTIONS:
1: Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13×9-inch pan with cooking spray.
2: In large bowl, beat cake mix, melted butter, brown sugar, eggs and milk with spoon until well blended. Stir in butterscotch morsels (and nuts, if desired). Spread in pan.
3: Bake 24 to 28 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Cut as desired.
Darlene’s Tips: You can use any flavor cake mix for this recipe. They just won’t be blonde, but they should still have a more chewy texture! Toss in any flavor morsels too. You could also add other ingredients like raisins, M&M candies, shredded coconut or whatever you like! You can frost these for extra sweetness!

INGREDIENTS:
check for ingredient coupons here
1 box Betty Crocker Super Moist white cake mix
1/2 cup shortening
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 to 1 teaspoon vanilla, almond or lemon extract
1 egg
Sugar for sprinkling
Vanilla frosting
Food colors
(see my tips below)
See my Darlene’s Concoctions videos!
DIRECTIONS:
1: Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, beat cake mix, shortening, butter, extract and egg with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, then on high speed 1 minute (or just beat the hell out of it by hand, my words, not theirs, lol).
2: Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each part 1/8 inch thick on lightly floured cloth-covered surface with rolling pin.
3: Cut with cookie cutters into desired shapes then sprinkle with sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
4: Bake 5 to 7 minutes or until light brown. Cool 1 minute then remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.
5: In microwavable bowl, microwave frosting uncovered on High 20 to 30 seconds or until melted. Stir until smooth and frost cookies.
6: In small bowls or cups, stir together small amounts of water and food color. Paint colors on freshly frosted cookies, using fine-tip brush, then swirl colors with brush or toothpick to create marbled designs. Dry completely before storing.
Darlene’s Tips: Want to whip up galaxy cookies quickly? Use store-bought cookies! You can also use the food coloring swirl method on top of cakes. Just heat your frosting as mentioned in the descriptions and frost your cake. Then paint with the food color and water mixture and swirl. You could also add colorful sugar sprinkles for twinkling stars.
