In this second part, we continue with Christmas presents but in the cookie form. I love to bake so this really was just a fun 10+ hours spent over two days.
...I know, i have a problem.
Lets begin. First we have one of my staples for cookies, yummy Peanut Butter Cookies.
To spice it up for the Holiday, i added a Hersey Kiss to the center. (this post is brought to you by Hershey*, There's a Smile in every Hershey Bar!)
*not really brought to you by hershey but if the would like to send some products ... :)
Next up i tried a new recipe from "Mom's Big Book of Cookies." They are called Chocolate Kisses.
Made with Semi Sweet and White Chocolate.*
*as you can see, the White Chocolate ones tended to spread out in the oven and that didnt jive well with me. i would suggest for next time to use only semi-sweet chocolate.
Last i made the most delicious Sugar cookies. The Cookie Recipe and Frosting come from the blog from my inspiration, Bridget from Bake @ 350. Her Cookies are amazing and if you dont read her blog or follow her on twitter, then you're not living your life properly.
Aren't they adorable?
I think i love the trees the most. so cute!
and even though the candy canes are pink and not red (because i didn't have Americolor dye, which i shall be getting in the future,) i think they were a good first run.
Over all i would score this as a success! Now if you'll excuse me, i have some cookies to consume :)
Oh, thanks for that sweet shout-out! :) Your cookies are adorable! And, you know, pink is very big in Christmas cookies this season!
