Every place I have been to this week is filled with hearts, candy, treats, and all things red and pink. I figured I better get into the Valentine’s spirit a little bit and bake some of my kids favorite cookies. A few years ago I went to a Valentine’s cookie exchange and this Red Velvet Cookie recipe was the cookie the kids requested be made again. The cookies are so yummy and actually very versatile…these also work well for Christmas, just use different color sprinkles!
Fall is one of my favorite seasons, the air gets crisp and the smell of pumpkin and cinnamon is everywhere. I enjoy almost all things pumpkin; lattes, pasta, bread, muffins, and especially pumpkin cookies. I found a recipe a while ago and tweaked it over the years to make it just right. These cookies are a great treat to bring to a potluck or party in the fall season and always go fast. Even my kids who claim to dislike anything pumpkin will eat them!!
