Fathers Day Gift

I put this gift together from my husband and said that it was from our Toddler.

My husband bought our toddler this board book awhile back and she has learned to say all the animal noises in it.

I wrote my husband a letter and said it was from our toddler too. I used a free font that looked like kid handwriting to type it up.

I used an oreo and chocolate to make the cat.
I used a nutter butter and chocolate to make the horse.

College Survival Kit

I gave a friend who was graduating from high school this basket. A lot of the ideas came from pinterest.

Butterfinger Gift Basket

Butterfinger is my sisters favorite candy bar and I always think of her when I see unique butterfinger treats. I've seen a lot of new butterfinger products come out in stores lately, so I thought it would be fun to send her a small themed basket for her birthday.

Cookies & Cream Gift Basket

Our friends son had surgery and we wanted to give him a get well gift. Come to find out his favorite candy bar is the Hersey "cookies & cream."

I thought it would be fun to make him a cookies and cream themed gift basket since there are so many cookies and cream products out right now. We didn't want to load him up with too many sweets though, so we gave him a basket with five treats.

Cookie Gift Basket

We do a service auction every year at church and this year I decided to bring two assorted cookie plates to it. Here's a post that includes most of the cookie recipes in the picture below.

I added a cute little tag to the packaging with the cookie monster on it.
The font I used to create the tag is free. I love the hearts in it.

Unique Bar Cookies

#1 - Chubby Hubby Bar

This bar was bought at a bakery. I'm pretty sure it was inspired by the "Chubby Hubby" ice cream. It has cookie dough, peanut butter, Oreo, white chocolate and a bunch of other stuff in it. Here is a recipe online for a homemade Chubby Hubby Bars.

#2 - "Raw" Naimo Bar

Here is a "raw" naimo bar recipe if you'd like to try it at home. These are amazing! Better than the original in my opinion.



 #3 - Cinnamon Roll Bar

This bar cookie is chewy and sweet with a cream cheese frosting on top.


#4 - Marionberry Pie Bar

Selling at Stone Soup Bistro. Similar online recipe.

 

#5 - S'more Bar

Similar Recipe online.


#5 - Cinnamon Toast Crunch Bar

Here's a homemade cinnamon toast crunch rice crispy treat bar recipe.

#6 - Rice Krispy bar with dried fruit & nuts


Here is a similar recipe I found online for these rice crispy oat dried fruit bars.

#7 - Rocky Road Brownie

These rocky Road Brownies were selling at Walmart. They looked like regular brownies with Rocky Road Toppings. I thought it was a great idea.
