The Best Cookie For Every Month of 2017
The Best Cookie For Every Month of 2017
If you are already in the thick of holiday baking, you have cookies on the brain. And, if you are like the approximately 40 percent of Americans who make New Year's resolutions, you will soon have big life goals on the brain. Why not resolve to bake a different type of delicious cookies each month in 2017?

Some of these look seriously delicious. I'm going to try to do this!! Anyone else want to commit to a monthly cookie-baking endeavor in 2017?




Yes! All for it!
The seasons make no sense at all for me in Australia, but I'll bake them for kicks and giggles anyway. Ice cream biscuit trifle in winter will be fabulous. I've no doubt of it. :)
Yay! I'm trying to decide how we should do it. Should I just schedule a post for the beginning of each month with the recipe and tell people they should make it and share the results in the comments, or do we also need a second another post at the end of the month and that's where they can share their results so it appears again as a reminder?
I seriously can't stop staring at those meringues. They look soooo good. I just want to make them right now.
Hmm... the meringue recipe doesn't even look that hard, which is suspicious to me. I've never tried making meringues, but I thought it was because they were difficult to make. Is there a secret to how you mix them that it has to be at just the right speed for exactly the right length of time to the perfect consistency or else they turn out horrible? Because if so, that recipe is not nearly detailed enough.
None of the recipes look very hard at all. Maybe you could set a monthly challenge of your own? I love the idea of baking and trying new recipes together. But we could try on any challenge we want, right?
I've made coconut macaroons, which is basically meringue filled with coconut and they were super easy. You can beat them too much, but I think you can figure it out.
I'm in! I love baking and want to do more!
Cool! I might try these ones out of order then... I'm excited to have a monthly baking challenge though! Yay! Maybe I'll see if I can find some other recipes and give people an easy or advanced option each month...
