Howdy, ya’ll! Rodeo season is in full effect here in Texas. We’re getting good use out of our hats and boots lately at everything from Go Texan Day to a first-grade Chilli Cook-off at school. Today we’re making these Cowboy Cookies from Bakerella. They are the perfect treat after a long day on the range…or school…whatever. I followed Bakerella’s recipe, except I used regular M&Ms. I mixed them up and threw them on the pan. I made a whole batch to take to a meeting and even made a ready-to-bake jar for the hostess gift. TIP: Use wax paper rolled into a funnel to load the ingredients into the jar. Muuuuuch easier. I used a bandana to cover the jar lid and tied it with some twine. I used another bandana to line my basket to transport the cookies.
I made a label for jar and used a scalloped punch to cut it out. I also made some recipe cards to take and share using Pamela Donnis and Krystal Hartley’s Wild Wild West digital scrapbooking kit, available at The Digi Chick. My good friend, Jen, taught me a long time ago that’s a thoughtful gesture to share the recipe of the dish you bring. It’s always appreciated.
I asked nicely and she’s letting me share the recipe card and jar label with you! Here’s the pdf download. Be a sweetie and check out Pamela’s blog, Keeping Life Creative, and show her some love for sharing with us!
Yee-Haw!
Oh my CUTE!!!!!!!!!! I love your new site!
Love this site and especially like this cute little recipe card! I can see this being used in my PreK classroom after having a cowboy come to visit!
