Easy Strawberry Cookies

I have been searching for a recipe to clone the strawberry cookies from a local strawberry farm store. After perusing several websites, I decided to try one that I found on allrecipes.com. It sounded way too easy to be very tasty, but since I had most of the ingredients I gave it a shot anyway. As usual being too lazy to go to the store, I had to “Mommy MacGyver” but the cookies still turned out great. (I did not have the regular type of non dairy whipped topping; so I used the canned spray whipped cream.) I think that trial and error is a great way to learn how to cook. It makes for a very creative cook. If the recipe doesn’t turn out right, make improvements for the next time or just don’t make it again.

This recipe made me think of another way that I think I’ll try to post recipes: Twitter. My new project is going to be trying to post quick, simple, recipes on Twitter.  So keep following!
