This post is sponsored by Betty Crocker, but I spread cheer because I want to.
I love baking. It releaves stress, it tastes delicious, and when I give my baked goods as gifts everyone is genuinely happy to receive them. Something as simple as a plate or basket of cookies really can change your whole day and spread cheer. Knowing someone set aside 20-30 minutes to make something special and JUST FOR YOU really warms the heart. I grabbed a bunch of Betty Crocker™ Cookie Mix when I was at Walmart a few days ago and decided I wanted to make a few goodies for my neighbors. They have been so kind and so thoughtful of my family this year and I want to do something sweet, pun intended, for them.
I got my daughter into the kitchen with me for this batch of cookies. She is only 2 1/2 years old, but she loves being all up in the middle of what I am doing so I thought she would like this. That and she saw the bag of cookie mix and there was really no stopping her.
Once we got the cookies all good to go we packaged them up beautifully and threw them in a basket along with another bag of cookie mix and directions on how to make the cookies I was gifting. I did this earlier in the year with some cupcakes I had made and they really loved it so I thought I would spread cheer and do it again.
