      I LOVE the Betty Crocker Cookie Icing – it fills in the gaps and hardens to look smooth like in the pictures above. It’s great!

    My mouth is watering! I love me some holiday sweets! Those cookie drops look good…are those the ones that you put a cookie in a cupcake? Or just bake the cookie in a muffin tin?

    Cookies are my favorite and I recently made some Pumpkin Spiced and Sprinkled Cookies that were very holiday-ey. http://www.semihealthnut.blogspot.com/2011/11/semi-healthy-pumpkin-spiced-and.html

    Also made some yummy Sugar and Spice and Everything Awesome cookies http://www.semihealthnut.blogspot.com/2011/11/sugar-and-spice-and-everything-awesome.html

    Another crowd pleaser is Lemon Doodle Cookies (this post has a link to even MORE cookies) http://semihealthnut.blogspot.com/2011/10/i-heart-cookies-lemon-doodles.html

    Thanks for sharing this recipe round-up!

    This page is getting bookmarked for sure! :-)

    My favorite cookie recipe is “White Chocolate Almond Oatmeal Cookies”
    http://www.girlmeetswhisk.com/?p=372
    I used a recipe I found online and had to sub out ingredients because I didn’t have them and the results were amazing. I’ve now made them at least a dozen times for different occasions. Although I would choose dark chocolate over white any day of the week, these are my weakness!!

    SN- I printed your Turkey & Veggie Soup and guess what?!? We’re having that for dinner sometime next week (probably Monday night)! EEEeeeeeeeeekkk. (Sorry- it looked so good). Thank you for sharing. I’ll let you know how much my family liked it.

    A recipe I made not too long ago was this one for peanut butter cookies. I give all the credit to Jessica from “How Sweet it is.” It’s completely her recipe, and I love her for sharing it! :)
