NATIONAL HOMEMADE COOKIE DAY

Let’s bake a lot of homemade cookies today, as it is National Homemade Cookies Day. Bake any type of cookies that you’d like on this October 1 holiday. Put on your apron and let’s get baking. The more cookies you make, the better. You get extra points if you are a mom. That’s because everybody knows that mom makes the best cookies!

What qualifies as “Homemade”: Making cookies from scratch is certainly homemade. And, it’s the best way to celebrate this holiday. If you use a box mix, it still qualifies as homemade. There is some disagreement, as to whether using pre-packaged store-bought cookie dough, where you slice the cookies and then bake them, is considered homemade. We will let you make that call.
