Rum Nut Cookies

Lush



I first made these during the holiday season, since they are soooort of a holiday type cookie. They are a rum flavoured cookie, dipped in chopped nuts before baking. Then a rum frosting is drizzled on top. In between the rum frosting layers is a chopped nut variety and cinnamon. I decided to photograph these cookies in my new cookie jar so you get two great things in one!

Peanut Butter Oatmeal


Elephantine



Elephantine was the best word in the thesaurus when I searched "huge". Another crunchy cookie. They were huge too! ;) They remind me of the cookies you get when you give blood, or when you get a needle as a child. Peanut butter cookies with oatmeal in them. Splitting these cookies in three isn't such a bad idea.

Crunchy Crunchy Crunchy

Gingabread



These cookies are gingerbread trail mix cookies. I know, right? The cookie is soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside, filled with trail mix. I was inspired by a recipe from the bakery I work at, which is the same but has white chocolate in it as well. However, this is a vegan version of the cookie and has no white chocolate pieces. Trail mix is good for more than just camping!

Welcome!

I've had my cake explosion blog for some time now, and figured it's about time to make a blog to show off my cookies! Cake has always been my favourite to make, but I felt sad making cookies which simply got eaten without being shown off first. So, I created cookie explosion!
