Cowboy Cookies
Okay, so that wasn’t much of a hiatus, was it! Let’s just say that I guess I won’t be going on a hiatus, I just won’t be updating quite as often!
Anyway, what did bring me out of my hiatus was Bakerella’s post about cowgirl/boy cookies. Her cookie-mix-in-a-jar was so adorable! I’m definitely going to be using that idea for gifts. Her recipe for cowgirl/boy looked so easy that I decided to quickly mix up the ingredients and bake a batch while my little boy was taking a nap.
I couldn’t find the pink M&M’s that Bakerella used, but they can be bought at the M&M’s online shop. I just used the regular color mix of M&M’s.
These cookies were fantastic! I thought they tasted best straight out of the oven, but even on the third day they still tasted great. I think that this particular cookie-mix-in-a-jar would be a great gift for anyone, and I’d highly recommend that you go and make a batch of these for yourself too! :)
These look so good. M&Ms are my favorite candy, I don’t know if I would have any left over for the cookies! I saw her post also, I will probably make some jars around Christmas time!
Isn’t that always the way it goes? You say you’re not going to post for a while and then you find yourself posting? I usually do it the other way… Like this summer when I planned to do allll the cooking/baking/posting but ended up falling way short on the blogging end, even though I had all the time in the world.
Sigh. I think I just need to be busy to keep busy. If that makes any sense…
Anyway… well done you with the baby and the cookies.
