SAND DOLLAR COOKIES

Kids are missing the sand, sea shells and salt water. Their dose of Vitamin SEA was long overdue but their imaginations always run wild as they see their sea shells collection and sands on our table. It brings back the memories of sun bathing, tag games, water splashing, swimming, shell collections, food, drinks and chilling by the beach.

And the best to go pica bites are chocolates, chips and cookies.
So, my youngest said, let's make cookies and pretend we are off to the beach! 😁 A perfect cookie for the destination is a sand dollar, hope you'll enjoy making this as we did!
