Cookies and Bars
It’s hard to beat a warm chocolate chip cookie with a glass of cold milk, though a brownie might match it. I’ve also got the best Christmas holiday cookies as certified by my family and friends!
Snickerdoodles
This cookie will surely satisfy your sweet tooth. It is a crisp, crackly cookie that is rolled in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar, baked to a light golden brown and bursting with flavor. Give me a glass of milk with these cookies and they’ll be gone in no time at all.
