I’ve made progress.
Baby cookie steps, if you will.
One of my goals this year was to embrace baking and actually get to know all-purpose flour, baking powder, yeast, sifting, cream of tartar, and those other more scientific “baking” words. It’s not their fault. I just play better with saute, simmer, melt, and season. My savory homies have kept me full and satisfied.
However, I realized over the past thirty-one years, I have been projecting what it means to be a true baker. You don’t have to bake goods 24/7, sleep with flour under your pillow, or own a bakery. In fact, this year has been fun trying to figure out the hype in the art of baking. I’ve made some fun things (like this guy!) and even though it’s just the icing tip, I am excited to learn more! And of course, eat more CAKE!
Well, when my friend Bridget, author of Baked at 350, released her new cookbook Decorating Cookies Party I knew I had to get my mitts on it. Not only is Bridget extremely talented, her blog is full of amazing cakes, treats, and the cutest cookies you ever laid your eyes on. Have you seen her Big Bang Theory cookies? Ridic.
Decorating Cookies Party is full of 10 celebratory themes from birthdays to sports to baby showers that will make any party an 11/10 situation. So, what to make? I instantly spotted the brown sugar and spice cookies, and got to thinking. What if I turned these fellows into a sandwich, stuffed them with brown butter icing and gave them away during the holidays? I thought Bridget would totally approve.
I made the dough, rolled it, cut out little circles, plopped them on a baking sheet (fun little factoid from the cookbook, did you know you can freeze cookies for five to ten minutes before putting them in the oven? It totally keeps them from spreading!), and baked them into a buttery bliss.
After letting them cool, I spread some brown butter icing, sandwiched them up, and poured disco dust on top like a true baker. Now, if you want, this cookbook has a zillion ways to jazz up these cookies like pastel sprinkles and food coloring pens. So, if you want a chance to have your very own cookie decorating party, enter for a chance to win your very own copy.

I love them all, but you can’t beat a good chocolate chip cookie!
Love Bridget and her new book! The cookies look perfect!!
peanut butter chocolate chip 🙂 or gingerbread!!
These look so amazing! And I’m with you on being a savory girl, but excited that you’re going to start baking more! 🙂
Love these cookies and I love Bridget’s blog. Winter is the perfect time to work on your baking chops…but seems like you are all ready nailing it! I think my favorite cookie is still chocolate chip with a little sea salt sprinkled on top.
Please don’t make me choose just one! Um, whichever cookie is in front of my face? lol
Forgotten Cookies — little tiny meranges with chocolate chips
Bridget’s book looks incredible and it is just in time for cookie season!! Ya!
I still love warm chocolate chip cookies the most!
Also, can you use ground nutmeg instead of freshly grated?
These are EPIC
These cookies are amazing!! Picking a favorite is a tall order, but you can’t ever go wrong with chocolate chip cookies!
A soft snickerdoodle cookie, has to be soft not crispy.
Look at YOU!!!! You fancy huh!!!!!!! Girl. These photos are stunning. Baking looks good on you!
These cookies look pretty darn good and who doesn’t love Bridget and her cookies.
I sure am craving a big cookie sandwich right now! That icing looks like it deserves to be eaten with a spoon! 😉
Baking is therapeutic … but gold dust?? Heck yes! That stuff makes me dance!!!
BEAUTIFUL cookies!
These sandwiches look unreal. Especially that filling!!
I love the Molasses Crinkles my grandma makes every Christmas.
These look fantastic! I don’t know if I could pick JUST one favorite cookie, but my most recent favorite were some graham cracker snickerdoodles. RIDICULOUSLY tasty!
I LOVE chocolate chip cookies warm from the oven with a glass of ice cold milk!!
Hmmm…..that is a tough one. I think I would have to say classic chocolate chip cookies when they just come out of the oven and the chocolate is still all melty! P.S. Big Bang Theory cookies??? Gotta check those out. Big Bang Theory is my pregnancy TV craving. I watch it ALL THE TIME.
Cookies are one of my favorite desserts – especially fresh out of the oven. I guess my favorite cookies are loaded with chew and crunch – oats, raisins, chocoloate chips – and not too sweet. Maybe even finished with a flaky salt like Maldon.
Gorgeous work on these cookies, btw.
Oatmeal Cookies with Craisins and White Chocolate Chips
I wish I was more of a baker too! These look so good and that icing…I’ll take it by the spoonful!
I have to go with chocolate chip, they have to be giant and paired with a tall glass of milk.
My favorite cookie is chocolate chip homemade and soft.
As simple as it is I love a really great chocolate chip cookie.
*sniff sniff* you’re becoming a baker!! I’m so *sniff* Proud!!! Also – these look amazeballs.
I totally need Bridget’s new book. Your cookies look great, and I bet they taste incredible. I love everything brown butter!
I love a snickerdoodle. Or a gingerbread. Or an almond cookie… What can I say, I am a Cookie Monster!
My favorite cookie is snickerdoodles. They were the first kind I learned to bake as a kid.
Baking should just be about having fun in my opinion. And these cookies look like a lot of fun. I bet that filling is irresistible.
Any cookie that involves brown butter AND brown sugar is a cookie I need in my repertoire! And yay for you conquering your baking fears. You’re a natural!
