Ever since my days with the wonderful toy that was the Easy Bake Oven, I’ve had a soft spot for the sweeter treats in life. While the warm, mushy and oh so delectable taste of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies will remain among my favorite desserts, I think I can find it in my heart (or sweet tooth) to make room for these bookworm inspired cookies:
1. Childhood Story Cookies
These rectangle cookies cover some of the most loved children’s stories such as Pat the Bunny, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Goodnight Moon, and Corduroy the bear.
