Holiday Baking: Lemon Crinkle Cookies

These cookies are super light. I mean, holding one in your hand is like holding a feather. They smell like lemon Girl Scout cookies. They taste good too, but I like “cake”-ier cookies, personally. These were like eating lemon clouds.

Holiday Baking: Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

I love to bake treats as gifts and to just have around the house during the holidays. I wanted to share some of my favorite recipes as well as some new ones I'm trying out this year.

I found the recipe a few years ago online, but haven’t been able to find it since. Doesn’t really matter though because these are the EASIEST cookies to make and they are amazing.

What You Need:

• 1 Jar of Peanut Butter & Co.‘s Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter
• 1 roll of Pillsbury sugar cookie dough

Then all you do is mix the two ingredients together, form balls of dough, put them on the cookie pan, and then bake per instructions on the sugar cookie dough packaging. They are VERY delicate cookies so take care in handling them (this really just means more broken cookies for the cook). These are always the biggest hit of all the cookies I bake.
