Sugar Cookie Bars

What a great, different way to enjoy sugar cookies!  This was especially easy for me because I had some sugar cookie dough in the freezer (yes, you can freeze sugar cookie dough!).  All I had to do was let the dough defrost, bake, make the frosting, and add sprinkles.  Even if you had to make the dough,…

Strawberry Cream Cheese Cookies

I am way behind in my posting, but thanks for being patient with me!  This was to be my second Valentine’s Day post, but much like the Valentine’s Day Snack Mix, these cookies can be made anytime!  They have a cake mix foundation, so they are pretty easy and quick to mix up.  I had…

Pinwheel Cookies

Happy New Year!  I hope you and yours had a great safe start to 2012.  I am still blogging about items that I made as gifts for Christmas so bear with me for a few more posts.  This is another recipe that I found on Pinterest.  The cookies were light and not too sweet.  Definitely…

Snickerdoodle Blondies

With a new little person around, we have family and close friends in and out of the house.  I decided to have some snacks around so folks would have something to eat on while visiting.  This was a great item to have around.  It’s a cookie and a blondie!  Perfect!  I have eaten more than I…

Chewy Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies

Yum…blueberries.  Add oatmeal to that and they have to be healthy right, even though they are cookies? These cookies stayed chewy for days. The recipe below and double that of the original; it came out to make about 3 dozen cookies.  I bet they would be good with cranberries as well. Chewy Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies Adapted…

Butterfinger Oatmeal Cookies

This past weekend, we went to visit with my parents.  I usually bring something with me and this recipe caught my eye.  My dad loves Butterfinger candy bars.  His Christmas stocking is sure to have some Butterfingers in there.  When I saw this recipe, I knew it would be a hit. He turned his nose…

Snickerdoodles

There are just some words that are fun to say; Snickerdoodles is one of them.  I have made these cookies with SMS before and then with maple flavor.  I remember really liking the maple ones, but don’t remember the SMS ones.  This recipe I took from Martha Stewart. I made the dough two days in advance…

Chunky Peanut, Chocolate and Cinnamon Cookies

I like to bake so of course I have an abundance of brown sugar, unbleached all-purpose flour, butter, and vanilla extract. But what I can’t understand is why do I have an abundance of… Nut butters…2 peanut butters and 1 almond butter to be exact. I know this type of stuff is not just for…

Soft & Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

In one of my frequent trips to Borders to get books while at a discounted price (and I was back there today), I decided to pick up Martha Stewart’s Cookies.  I have been eyeing this book for awhile and decided 20% off was a good incentive to buy it.  This is just the first of…

Samoas Cookie Bars

It is finally Girl Scout cookie time!  My favorite cookie are the Samoas.  They have always been my favorite, even when I was a Girl Scout.  Now I am happy that I have a recipe when I want Samoas and there is not Girl Scout in sight to sell me any.  I was so excited to…
