How did I not know this existed before this year? It was yesterday, and I first heard about it on the radio (I think) when I was getting up yesterday morning. Of course, I knew it had to be celebrated (duh! Cookies!) and I was pretty excited when Ryan brought me a delicious cookie when he came back from lunch at La Cuisine.
As delightful as that was, I felt that in order to truly pay homage to the day, I needed to actually bake some cookies. So I looked for a recipe and decided to try a red velvet cookie recipe I had pinned a little while ago. I modified it a bit since I didn't have any regular chocolate chips - I went with Andes peppermint pieces to make them a little more yummy / seasonal.
They were delicious.
And that's the subject of yesterday's December Daily entry.
(I knew those food / eating themed stamps from Kelly Purkey were going to come in handy. Love them!)
And now I need to ignore the siren call of the rest of those suckers and take them to work so I don't cave and scarf the lot. Mmm. (Good thing it's a cookie day and not a whole week or month!)
Very cute! Must remember this for next year.
