Christmas Cookie Friday

Mmm, Cookies. I love you. You are not fancy and perhaps overlooked by those looking for a delicious dessert. But you'll always find a happy girl if you are in my hands. While I love you, I don't love cooking and therefore I apologize for not filling plates with you and giving them to friends like last year. It was just too much for me for one day. And so instead, we are celebrating you each week this Christmas season. Mmmm, you make my home smell good. You make my tummy filled. You make milk taste so perfect. I could go on, but there are more of you waiting downstairs for me so I will make this short so I can join you again. Thank you for being so good and having so many varieties, I'll never be bored of you!

On the menu this week: Chocolate Surprise Cookies. While the dough and the actual cookie are surprisingly not sweet, the marshmallow and icing with 3 cups of powdered sugar more than make up for it!

Sharing with friends always makes even the most yummy of foods taste better.

Mmm, strawberry marshmallows. Need I say more?!

And this is the best thing about our new activity of Christmas Cookie Friday. Time with my girls! We had to start early today since we had a birthday party and primary activity on the list of things to do as well, but next week, we'll add Matt into the cookie making!
