Cookies are in high competition around here lately. Yesterday we had sugar cookies, Halloween decorated cookies, lemon cookies, lemon cookies with cherry chips, pumpkin cookies, AND these Harvest Corn Cookies in the lunchroom at work. Decisions, decisions. How’s a girl supposed to resist ALL of that?! Impossible. These by far were the cutest of them [Read more >>]
We’ve all made these adorable little Nutter Butter Ghost Cookies by now, haven’t we?! I cannot even tell you who created these originally, but I know we have been making them for many, many years. Then I realized, I have never shared them on the blog! So for those of you that have not made these [Read more >>]
Okay, I’m fairly certain that Nutter Butter’s are the most universal cookie – in the world. Seriously, I’ve seen them used to make everything from reindeer to high heels. Not to mention, they taste dang good dipped in chocolate. I’ve decided to compile all of the ideas that other bloggers, crafters, and I have made [Read more >>]
These sunglasses are stylin’ if you ask me. Who wouldn’t want to wear these!? Top Gun, anyone? I think the green ones are my favorite. (My hand was the most steady anyways.) These were really simple to make though. And you only need two ingredients plus cake writing icing and sprinkles if you wish to [Read more >>]

After all, a little sugar never hurt anyone. Hence, energy bite. Peanut butter, oats, a few raisins and a couple [Read more >>]
New Year’s Eve…a perfect time to indulge and eat these rich cookies filled with a peppermint buttercream frosting…dipped in chocolate. They are as good as they sound. Better, in fact. I’ve used this recipe on several occasions, and just altered the shapes of my cookies. I even had a stranger tell me she would buy my flowers and [Read more >>]
It’s been a while since I’ve made these…and then I realized, even though you may have seen them before, I’ve never blogged about them. Plus, I’ve made a couple changes to the originals. It all started when I found (orange!) candy-coated sunflower seeds at Tj-Maxx/HomeGoods. Immediately I thought – noses, as carrots for snowmen! Just [Read more >>]
The perfect combination of chocolate, mint, and *crunch*. These are very reminiscent of the Girl Scout cookies we all know as Thin Mints. Those dang Girl Scout cookies that you can’t set down until they’re gone…then the sugar guilt kicks in. I saw this recipe around 10 a.m. and by noon I had 50 little cookies of my own. [Read more >>]
