They couldn’t be easier to make – just don’t make yours as wide…
Since it’s the holiday season, I made a few with peppermint extract instead of almond extract and added candy cane bits to them. I made three batches to send to three amazing bloggers as part of the 2015 Food Bloggers Cookie Swap. I’ve participated in this great program for three years and it just keeps getting better! Lindsay and Julie put the whole thing together to raise money for the Cookies for Kids Cancer Foundation. Along with all the bloggers donating money, OXO, Land O’Lakes, and Dixie Crystals are all matching funds for the foundation.
With amazing bloggers and cookies involved, how could I not participate in all of this awesomeness!
I was fortunate to recipe Raspberry Linzer cookies from Cheri, some fun rainbow shortbread cookies along with a book and shirt from Gemma, and some delicious dark chocolate, sweet cherry and toasted coconut cookies from Little Flour Microbakery. My belly was happy and my family was thrilled to have (even more) holiday cookies.
I hope that Penny, Emily and Dahn all enjoyed the Chocolate Brownie Biscotti that I sent out. I ate all the end and loved every bite!
