Turkey Day is here! And I have a super simple, yet impressive treat to add to your dessert lineup. Between the pumpkin cupcakes and the apple pie cupcakes, why not serve up some turkey feathers? Puffy and flaky and oh-so-sweet turkey feathers. Man they are delicious. AND slightly addictive (don’t say I didn’t warn you)! But that’s not even the best part. This little treat goes from frozen to fabulous with just a few folds and sprinkles of cinnamon sugar. Quick and simple. Just like today’s write up… because I have Thanksgiving baking …

Last month we celebrated a very special birthday in my house… my husband’s! Of course my husband likes cake. Or is at least smart enough not to tell me that he doesn’t like cake. But I know, deep down, that his true favorite is chocolate chip cookies. It’s pretty apparent. And trust me, I’ve come to terms with this over the years. So this year I decided to celebrate his inner cookie monster and do something a little different for his birthday ‘cake’. A cookie cake like none I had seen before.
