Peaches and Cream Crumble Top cookies
Augusts Cookie of the Month highlights Peaches as the star of the show as they enter their crowning harvest season. This cookie starts with a Soda Shop cookie as the base. There are many recipes for these delicious cookies, so use your favorite one or follow the recipe below. If you love peaches as much as I do, these cookies might be about as irresistible as it gets. The soft and chewy sugar cookie balances the crisp, tartness of the Peaches, while the whipped cream frosting adds a rich creaminess and the sweet and nutty crumble topping brings a tiny reminder that Autumn is coming, so enjoy the last moments…

February Cookie of the Month: Berries and Cream Sugar Cookies
Cookies might be one of the best treats to make and share to send an unmistakable message of love. It’s definitely no secret that I love Berries and so this month, as we celebrate all things LOVE, I decided to add berries to the frosting for these delicious sugar cookies. I made them as a gift for my Valentines and took them around to share just like in the “good ol days,” when we left surprises at our loved ones doors, knocked and ran away to hide. It’s one of my favorite Valentines traditions, making a homemade treat to share with the ones that make our lives so great. So…

Pilgrims Sampler Apron
Pilgrim’s Sampler Apron This apron idea came out of feeling inspired by all of the beautiful ways creators are using Granny Squares to make things like sweaters, skirts, jackets, hot pads, everything! I love the fun and retro feel that comes with adding colorful granny squares to a project. As I was crocheting the squares for this apron, I couldn’t help but think of my Grandma Sherrie, who taught me to crochet and who was also a wonderful cook. After making a few of these Granny Squares, I thought that combining the Granny squares into a sewing project for an apron would be a fun and creative fusion of crochet…

White Chocolate drizzled Gingersnaps
This year, I thought it might be fun to share a favorite cookie recipe each month. This will be mostly for selfish reasons, meaning I’ll get to make and EAT a batch of cookies every month for the sake of sharing the recipe. I have a cute, kind of old fashioned son who, if you ask him what kind of cookies he’d like you to make, he’ll almost always say, “How about Gingersnaps?” He started loving them as a chubby baby and the romance has continued. I love the way these Gingersnap cookies scent the whole house with warm smells of cinnamon, Mollasses, melted butter, Ginger, and Clove. A few…

Merry Christmas From Briarberry!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday season! Take some time to celebrate and spread joy and love. I hope you have the opportunity to enjoy the warmth of friends and family and that you have everything you need and more. For Christmas this year, our family had the opportunity to host a Christmas Eve dinner. We decked the halls and invited loved ones and a few friends to share the evening together celebrating old and new traditions. For me, this really is the most wonderful time of the year made better by the spirit of sharing and remembering the birth of a tiny baby who came to change…
