I am still convinced that a good, simple, homemade cookie is preferable to all the store-bought cookies one can find.

So this:
Turned into all of this:
Six batches of cookies and two batches of fudge, and we did it all in 12 hours. I’m still exhausted, but it was a great time!
Oh, Karen’s cookies were Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies, Kissy Cookies (the peanut butter ones with the Hershey Kisses on top), and Peppermint Shortbread – I don’t know if that’s the official name of it, but it’s my favorite cookie of the six we made, and I’ll share the recipe if anyone’s interested.

Can we just say that picture of us was taken at the end of the 12 hours?
Yay for cookie weekend! So much fun!
YUM. I tried a few different recipes for gingerbread this weekend to determine my favorite for my cookie baking this season. I’ve eaten A LOT of cookies in the past few days – and lucky me, PMS kinda coincided with this little experiment.
Yes. I must have the recipe to the Peppermint Shortbread.
Dang, I really want some home made cookies.
All I can say is WOW! You guys did GREAT!
