Today is National Shortbread Day! This is Megan’s favorite recipe, given to her by Miss Melody, a friend from church.
Chocolate Chip Cookies with Hidden Peanut Butter
Hodge Podge Cookies

Adapted from a few different “Magic Cookie” recipes and our own preferences.
Be imaginative with these. Replace crushed cookies and pretzels with graham crackers, Ritz or Rice Crispies. Candy can be replaced with favorite candy pieces, dried fruit or nuts. A half cup oats can replace the coconut flakes. Add a little of your favorite jam. Have fun!
“Pirate” Peanut Butter Cookies for “Talk Like a Pirate Day”
The Christie company out of Canada sells boxes of Pirate Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies which this is a copycat recipe for. Not sure why they chose the name “Pirate”, but the recipe caught my eye as we were looking for a new way to celebrate “Talk like a Pirate Day” this year. This is a combination of a few recipes and added chocolate chips.
The oatmeal cookies are good plain or filled.
