The last several years, I’d try a different recipe for sugar cookies for decorating. And now, I have finally found the perfect one! Take Me to Recipe Please!

I just realized I never FORMALLY announced my new business on my blog. Back in July, I casually mentioned on social media that I was starting a cookie business. That was such a mild way of putting what we have actually created with The Cookie Society. Yes, we sell cookies but they aren’t just any […]

It’s about time I share another cookie recipe― My business cards even says cookie extraordinaire– I need to live up to my self- appointed title. I already have a mini chocolate chip cookie recipe on my blog, FIND IT HERE. But those are more reminiscent of the Nestle Tollhouse variety you can purchase in the […]

I can’t believe it took almost 4 years of marriage for me to learn that classic peanut butter cookies are Mr.Allen’s second favorite cookie. I feel like I barely know my husband… He has never turned down a cookie I ever made so I just assumed he liked them all equally. He walked in the […]

I don’t think I have a favorite cookie anymore. These Chewy Snickerdoodle Cookies are making it hard for me to choose! Ever since I started my little cookie project, I LOVE them all. The Mini Chocolate Chip cookies are a perfect little pick me up where as Texas Tea Cakes are there to remind me […]

Peanut butter cookies are a classic. I’m talking about the kind with the criss cross pattern on the top and are a little soft in to middle. I wanted to add my own spin to the classic. We ALWAYS have peanut butter cups laying around the house. My entire family has a soft spot for […]

Happy Valentine’s Day! This will be our 7th Valentine’s Day together. When we first started dating, we used to go all out— a dinner reservation at a fancy restaurant or a fun staycation. Now that we have a daughter and a nursing (almost) 2 month old, we opted to stay home and celebrate. After we […]

Cookies are one of my favorite treats to serve a crowd. Cupcakes can be messy, cake is a bit labor intensive and requires a fork to eat, but cookies— cookies are a fuss free dessert. These Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies are soft but a little chewy with slightly crisp edges. The small size just make […]

I posted a tea cake recipe a couple years ago but felt it needed an update! Many recipes you will find use self rising flour. I personally don’t use a ton of specialty flours so I like that this one uses good ol’ all purpose flour. This recipe is incredibly simple. I almost always have […]

I’m glad football season is back for a ton of reasons, but one of the Top 3 is that I now have someone to give these baked goods to! My baking slows down severely in the offseason because I can’t afford to have piles of cookies, bars, and cakes all over my kitchen. There are […]

Cookie Butter? Have you all ever tried Cookie Butter? It’s absolutely addicting. Trader’s Joe’s sells a version but Biscoff Spread is awfully similar. It’s creamy like peanut butter and is reminiscent of the perfect cinnamon cookie. In addition to spreading it on toast, bagels, apples, and banana bread; it’s heavenly baked into these cookie butter […]
