I’m just thankful I snapped this quick picture before the boys knew these cookies where out of the oven!
When I started baking with Lincoln when he was, gosh, probably two-year old, this is the Sugar Cookie that we made. For years, the boys only wanted to make Sugar Cookies, but have recently started making Chocolate Chip cookies. They usually eat more of the dough than the baked cookies. I’ll have to say, I enjoy the dough more as well!
I made these cookies this time to go with Peach Ice Cream that I’m turning into Peach Ice Cream Sandwiches like I recently had, and loved, while at The Masters Gold Tournament. You can see all those golf pictures here and well as The Masters Famous Pimento Cheese Sandwich.

I tried this episode and it was good but a little too salty so I added more sugar but I would make with less salt next time
