M is for making cookies




It was for sure a cookie making, cookie giving,  and cookie receiving week for us! I made a big batch of peanut butter cookies on Sunday evening. Then, on Monday morning Alex wanted to make some sugar cookies after doing school. We did just that, and they turned out so delicious! He loves helping in the kitchen.

We baked the sugar cookies, and I had some of the peanut butter cookie dough left so we baked the rest of those too.

I think these are some sort of cookies and cream type of cookie. We are pretty sure there might be oreos in them. So good!

 Want to try the best peanut butter cookie recipe? At least, I think it's the best. Here it is:
