Friday Finds: 18 Ideas for Quick Cookie Tray Additions

Oh, I’m so behind!  Please tell me I’m not the only one? I am just getting around to deciding what’s going on my cookie trays this year.  I’ll be baking up a storm this weekend.  We LOVE making the rounds and gifting sweet treats on Christmas Eve. I have my favorite family cookie recipes I make each year, but I love mixing it up and including candies like fudge and bark and other yummy new finds.

Hello, and welcome! I'm Adrianne, an artist, author, designer, and blogger in mid Michigan. I work from home, chase my two kids, and this once-city-girl is learning how to care for chickens and adjusting to life out in the country. I have a compulsion for daily creativity... sometimes it's jewelry-making, paper crafting, metal stamping, mixing and baking, or giving new life to recycled items. But with 2 young kids, time is short! My goal here at Happy Hour Projects is to share projects and tips that you can do in an hour or less. The ideas you find here are designed to add a little creativity in your day, no matter how much (or how little) time you have!
