Lemon Rosemary Cookies, simple fresh flavors of lemons and rosemary meld together in these buttery shortbread cookies to make an unassuming cookie with a dynamic flavor combination. I’ve got a ridiculous confession to make. I love the scent of these lemon rosemary cookies so much that I’ve spent weeks looking for a lemon rosemary candle, just so that I can smell them all the time. I’ve even been dreaming about them, but that might have more to do with the…

Pumpkin gingersnap cookies have everything you love about gingersnaps, the rich and fragrant spicy flavor, the pretty crinkles and cracks along the tops of the cookies, all with the wonderful pairing of our favorite fall addition, pumpkin. You haven’t seen it on the blog yet, but I’ve been on a huge pumpkin baking spree. My coworkers and family have been loving it. That’s the thing once you start baking with canned pumpkin puree.

Soft and chewy graham flavored cookies studded with chocolate and topped with toasted marshmallows. These s’more cookies are so much fun to make! Perfect for bake sales, picnics, or days when your bonfire gets rained out. Who loves s’mores?

I sorted through and threw out a dumpster’s worth of ruined stuff. Days like these, it’s okay to scream things like I just need a freaking cookie…and a…

It’s hard to believe that 4 ingredients and around 20 minutes will yield these soft, melt in your mouth, buttery lemon crinkle cookies. Lemon crinkle cookies are the sunny sister to the Mint Middle Fudge Crinkles  I posted a few weeks ago.  Bright lemony flavor shines in these soft and chewy cookies. Cheerful yellow cookie peeks out of the powdered sugar covered cracks along the outside, giving these cookies their characteristic crinkle appearance.  These cookies make a great cake mix…

It’s the bus, busiest time of the year! There’ll be much schedule shifting and last minute gifting, but be of good cheer!

Cherries, blueberries, cranberries, and chocolate chips make these over the top oatmeal cookies a fruity, chewy,  sweet, and wonderful treat. Does it make me a horrible parent if I tell the entire internet my kids have been driving me nuts lately? Because they have. I say this as my youngest son stands right next to me with a butter knife, trying to break his tablet out of the protective case I put on it. It’s not a great plan and…
