Happy Sunday!
Did you go for Easter egg hunt? I miss those days when the boys were still babies. Easter egg hunts were always fun, either in the backyard, at friend’s, or at community place(s). Lots of chocolates eggs (for this momma 🙉🙊🙈).
Anyways!
For today’s recipe, saw a lot of colorful cookies at Walmart, so copycat time 😊 If you like those soft Lofthouse cookies, maybe you will like this recipe 😊
