Sunday Baking Adventures Await!


Hi Reader,

Happy Sunday! Bob is taking the girls to a birthday party and I'm headed to the kitchen to start some baking.

What I'm Making This Week

  • Ginger Snaps - I've had SO many good reviews on these cookies but a few people had issues this week so I'm going to test & convert to metric for better accuracy.
  • I'm making my Oreo Balls but I'm going to try making them in bar-form because I don't feel like scooping today. TBD on results lol
  • I'm doing a final test on my whipped shortbread cookies. This one isn't live yet but here's a sneak peek if you want to see.
  • I'm also making my M&M cookie bars - I like to cut them into triangles (shown below).
  • For dinner, I'm going to make this baked mostaccioli. It makes a big batch & reheats beautifully because we have a busy week ahead.
  • I'll save making the sugar cookies and icing for when the girls join me.
