Welcome to another Fill The Cookie Jar Event!
Every month our #FillTheCookieJar cookie loving group meets to share our best cookies and bars to fit the theme. This month we will be sharing cookies that remind us of Fall!
Thank you Cynthia Landrie from Feeding Big at http://FeedingBig.com for hosting this fun event!
When I think of Fall, I think about apple picking, visits to the pumpkin patch and scarecrows. I know Halloween and Thanksgiving are just around the corner. Then again so is winter. Brrr let’s get back to autumn.
Beautiful leaves of red, gold and orange crown the trees this time of year. But what reminds me most of fall is the smell of warm spices.
A blast of cinnamon hits my nostrils every time I go shopping. You know how the stores entice you with scents of the season.
Cinnamon is one of my favorite scents. I love it! When I saw a bag of cinnamon chips I knew what to do.
Bake Cinnamon Chocolate Chip Cookies!
A pinch of cayenne kicks these cookies up a notch! Kind of warms you inside too!
