Creative Cookies, Delicious Decorating For Any Occasion, Cookie Cook Book

My favorite sweet treat is homemade cookies. They have to be homemade because store bought cookies just do not taste the same. My cookies must be soft and chewy, not crisp. My rule is, take them out of the oven just a hair before they’re done. If they get crisp by mistake we can always dunk them in milk or coffee but that’s not the ideal. How is it at your house? Does your family like their cookies soft or crispy?
Cookies allow for a lot of creativity. There are lots of add-ins that you can use such as chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, raisins, or nuts. My Mom used to send us cookies made with cherry flavored chips. The boys loved those!
Then there are decorated cookies. You can make some fabulous looking cookies with icing and decorations such as jimmies, sprinkles, colored sugars, luster dust, edible glitter, cookie stamps and so much more. My mom and sister and I used to decorate sugar cookies to take to a children’s home at Christmas time. It was a lot of fun working together in the kitchen and sharing our creations with those less fortunate.
