Happy Hour: The Perfect Pumpkin Cookie

Oct 30, 2020

Fall has so many wonderful cookie options, but none are more beloved in my house than pumpkin cookies.  So if you’re looking for an activity to do with friends or family, baking these delicious frosted cookies is the way to go.

These cookies from How Sweet Eats are one of the softest cookies that I’ve ever eaten.  They have a gentle flavor, but if you like more spice, feel free to add it.  But the frosting…ladies, the frosting.  Brown butter frosting is my new favorite; I will be adding it to more baked goods in the future.

I love pretty aprons.  This Printemps Apron from Anthropologie is a lovely option.  Anthro always has a great selection whether you like pretty florals or something more basic, like this chambray.

Want to get really fancy?  This La DoubleJ apron is gorgeous, and would make a good gift.  For a classic option, try this Williams Sonoma apron.  Plus-size?  Try these aprons from Amazon or this one from Etsy.

    Made these last night and they were so amazing! Thanks for the recipe.

    I made these over the weekend and subbed whole wheat flour for half the flour. I think they are breakfast cookies now right? They still taste amazing and decadent!

The Beauty Edit: Neck Creams

Nora Ephron was right: I feel bad about my neck. As I move through my forties, the creases have turned into chasms. The skin sags like a pair of sweatpants with aging elastic. It’s not great. But it’s just a natural part of getting older. Over the past year, it feels like I’ve tried every […]
