Cherry Almond Shortbread Cookies

Happy Holidays! Here is a recipe for Cherry Almond Shortbread Cookies. These cookies are perfect for Christmas or New Years parties. I gave my grandparents a whole tin of them as a present. These are delicious, but they do require about 5 hours to make, since the dough has to be chilled. I found this recipe at Sally's Baking Addiction. Check out her site for more recipes! 
The ingredients are listed in the picture below. 


The result is a buttery, flavorful cookie! The cherries give the cookies a burst of flavor. I didn't have any white chocolate, but they were delicious without it! Make sure you do not bake them too much, or they will not be very soft.








ENJOY!

Food and Family

Hello blogging world! I realized I haven't been keeping up with my blog lately... Here's a post from my weekend. Although I didn't make this food, I spent the day with my family. We always have a fun time catching up and telling stories.  I love visiting my grandparents and uncle. My grandma always makes sure we have plenty of food and tasty desserts.  This time we ate pizza and donuts! 🍕🍩 The donuts were 4th of July themed and tasted delicious. Visiting my family always reminds me of the weeks I spent down with my grandparents during my childhood summers.  Lots of laughs, Dairy Queen trips, picnics, and trips to the Dollar Store.  This weekend reminded me how grateful I am to have such a fun and loving family.

Cauliflower Breadsticks

What are Cauliflower Breadsticks? Well, they taste just like real breadsticks, but they are a healthier version. When I was first making these, I was thinking, "How does cauliflower turn into a crust-like substance?" Well, after baking, these taste crispy and are just like breadsticks!
