Summer Fun Cookies
These cookies remind me of all the fun summer brings: sandy days at the beach, lounging by the pool, drippy ice cream cones, scorching hot sidewalks, and plenty of sun.

Don’t be alarmed that these teddy bears don’t have any faces! They are decorate-a-teddy-bear cookies, and are mean’t to be decorated with edible food pens. Ever since I decided to throw my son a teddy bear picnic party, I have been crazy about teddy bears. I thought these cookies would make a fun project for the kids to decorate at the party, and I really like that they can be made in advance and frozen. I made all of the teddy bear cookies in advance and froze them completely decorated. At party time, it was a cinch to pull them out and let them thaw. These cookies are guaranteed to bring a smile to your party guests, and even the parents will enjoy getting in on the decorating action!
Dessert bars are so much fun, I knew I couldn’t resist when my friend, Amanda, told me she wanted one for her 30th birthday. I was completely sold on it once she told me the colors were hot pink and black! This was the first dessert table I had ever done, so I put a lot of time into baking and planning.
When my little boy turned one, I wanted to make his party extra special. I needed a way to make an extraordinary party with a little time. I love things that can be made in advance, and cookies are one of those things that add extra pizzazz to a party and can be made and stored easily. I found this rocket cutter, and I knew it would be perfect. I wanted these cookies to stand up so that they could be used as a standing element on a dessert table. I also wanted to package and give out the rest of the cookies as party favors.
Spring is finally here, and nothing makes me happier than seeing the cheery bright yellow daffodils that bloom this time of year! Daffodils are my favorite flower, and last year I came across a cute little craft project on Martha Stewart’s website – making paper daffodil candy cups. I loved the look of these delightful decorations and thought why not make them edible! So this year I turned them into a cookie with a candy cup center.
