Cookie Recipes You Will Love: 💕
Raspberry Shortbread Cookies are a delicious and fun cookie that taste wonderful with the butter, sugar, flour, and raspberry extract. We have made them for Valentine’s Day in that post (link above). They can, of course, be made for any holiday or just any average day. Fun holiday cookie cutters make this recipe not only yummy but fun for kids and adults, too.
Easter Crinkle Cookies are a fun and easy cookie recipe because we have made them with a cake mix. We divided the batter into three bowls and colored the batter three different colors. The kids thought that was pretty fun and that they looked like Easter eggs.
Thanksgiving Turkey Cookies are the cutest cookies! They are made with Nutter Butters so all you have to do is have fun decorating them with your family-kids love to be creative and decorate cookies. They have been known to come up with some pretty fun and clever ideas when we cook together.
Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies are peanut butter cookies that have been stuffed or in other words wrapped around a bite-sized candy bar. We have used different bars, but we love to wrap the peanut butter cookie dough around a bite-sized Snicker bar. Chocolate and peanut butter go together perfectly. A way to make these even more simply…use Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix.
Stained Glass Sugar Cookies are so pretty. We used flower cookie cutters and then cut out the center and placed broken up Jolly Ranchers in the center to give it the stained glass look. They were super fun to make and eat. Use parchment paper on your cookie sheet to make removing the cookies easier.
German Chocolate Cookie Bites are so easy. They are not made from scratch, however, you could make your own cake. This recipe uses a German chocolate cake mix and a container of German chocolate frosting. Simple to make and delicious to eat. Have fun baking!
