Peanut Butter Cookies

peanut butter cookie time

Cooking things for other people always makes me so happy! It's super rewarding and when it's for someone else, I seem to go a little more crazy. I baked a bunch of cookies over the holidays to share with others and these peanut butter cookies were one of the recipes I whipped up. Baking to me is a ton of fun, but I don't feel like I am the best at it. This recipe was very simple though - I don't think I could have messed it up if I tried! I think if there was one thing you could change about … [Read more...]

Pecan Sandies

So I very much love pecans which is a good thing because my grandparents have a pecan tree! I always end up with tons in my freezer and I love finding new ways to use them. Pecan pie is my favorite (check out the one I made for Thanksgiving!), but I wanted a quick cookie recipe so I went with pecan sandies. I had actually never made them and I am not sure if what I made is the true version of a pecan sandie... but they were delicious! I wanted to make these little guys extra cute so I decided … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Spice Kissed Cookies

pumpkin spice kissed cookies

So the name is kind of a mouthful, but it describes them perfectly! These are the absolute easiest cookies (outside of cake cookies... which these basically are!). The best part of this cookie is the pumpkin spice kiss on top, but if you aren't a fan, you can for sure leave them off! They are a seasonal item that I just happened to run across this year while looking at halloween candy. If you want to leave the kisses off, you could just top them with some sugar before baking them. I did a batch … [Read more...]

Cake Cookies

So I worked at my job for about 3 months and this recipe is by far the best thing I got from it! Seriously though, this recipe is SO simple and totally delicious. After working for a bit, I realized what a lot of people were saying was true - some of my recipes just took too much time. I get it now. The last thing you want to do after a long day at work is come home and cook for 2 hours. I hope that from now on, I can come up with easier, quicker recipes... like this one! The only way cookies … [Read more...]

Gingersoft Cookies

So, I attempted to make gingersnaps, but they came out more like gingersofts! That's their new name. They were absolutely perfect though. I followed a recipe I found in this really old cookbook I got from my Grandmother, though I did have to change a few things up because I didn't have them... and I changed a couple other things a bit because I thought I could make it better! These are great to bake up for the holiday season and this recipe make A LOT! Enjoy :) Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups … [Read more...]
