"cookie dough log" news and stories

Today's homemade edible gift suggestion comes to us from Marie of Make and Takes. Instead of baking of a batch of cookies to give to a friend, co-worker or family member, she suggests that you make up a batch of your favorite cookie dough, roll it into a log, wrap it well and present it to them. Sounds like a great gift to me, because while there are always a host of treats and temptations around during December, sometimes you want a little taste of Christmas or Hanukkah when the harsh, frigid days of January have settled in. This way, the recipient can stash their cookie dough away for a day when they really need a sweet pick-me-up.

If you want to further jazz up the gift, and you've made a batch of dough that could be rolled out, you could attach a cute cutter or a jar of colored sprinkles to the log. These would also make great gifts for friends who are expecting a baby.
