If you’re a cookie lover, you should be super excited because this week is going to be DELICIOUS! It’s my TENTH annual cookie week… and there’s a lot going on!

Howdy, Reader,

It’s been a moment, huh? Time got away from me after Thanksgiving, and I’m just settling back into routine a week behind schedule. 😉

I wanted to email you this morning because I’m really excited. The Sweetest Season, my week-long celebration of butter, sugar and flour, is officially here… and we’re marking its 10th anniversary this year!

Here are a few things going on:

• Cookie recipes. I’m sharing THREE new cookies this week. My first one, Peppermint Chocolate Chip Cookies, are the perfect balance of peppermint and chocolate. They’re also HUGE.
• Collaboration! Speaking of The Sweetest Season… bloggers from around the world are sharing their favorite cookie recipes this week, too. Use the hashtag #SweetestSeasonCookies on social media to find us. Also, I’ll be publishing a post to include all the cookies shared for this collaboration on the 15th.
• Fundraising. We’re raising money in support of Cookies for Kids Cancer during this year’s Sweetest Season. I have all the details in today’s post if you’re interested to learn more.
• Giveaway. Two friends and I are giving away a Holiday Baking Prize Pack worth more than $450 on Instagram. It ends tomorrow, 12/7, so if you haven’t entered, there’s still time. Head over to the post here. (Full disclosure: We’ve pooled our personal money to make this giveaway happen. It’s not sponsored by the brands or Instagram. It says so in the post, but I always want to make that clear to you because disclosures are important.)

As always, happy baking!

Erin
