Thank you for the support – ordering is now closed!
Hello there! While crazy COVID life has been keeping me busy without a lot of time to post, I DO have time to help you with your holiday cookie needs, while supporting another local organization for this holiday edition of Bakers Against Racism.
Here’s the offer: I make, you take & bake. I’m offering cookie bundles, where you receive a total of 3 dozen cookies, 6 different types (so a half dozen of each). You can also spring to add an extra dozen of my Blue Ribbon winning Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Cookies included (going row-by-row):
- 6 Peanut Butter Blossoms – Hershey’s kisses will be included to press into these lovelies after baking (the cookie part of this recipe won a blue ribbon at the MN State Fair in 2016).
- 6 Chocolate Mint Swirls – Half chocolate, half peppermint, 100% jolly AF.
- 6 Holy Trinity Cookies – The trifecta of chocolate, peanut butter and banana, all rolled up into one perfect morsel.
- 6 Double Ginger Chocolate Cookies – These spiced beauties sparkle with sugary cheer and are filled with spice.
- 6 Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies – No need to elaborate here, the name tells you all you need to know.
- 6 Apricot Rugelach – A traiditonal Jewish cookie, typically baked for Chanukah, this features a tender cream cheese pastry containing a sweet and tart apricot filling.
Cookies come frozen, ready to bake when you need them. If 3 dozen seems like a lot of cookies, keep in mind that they keep in the freezer for months (or bake ’em all and gift to your loved ones!)
50% of the proceeds will benefit The Black Home Birth Initiative by Metro Midwifery. As a mom who was supported by midwives through both of my births, this cause is near and dear to my heart. And the statistics are horrific:
- Black birthing people are 3-6 times more likely to die from pregnancy and/or birth related complications than white birthing people
- Black birthing people experience 22 of 25 major pregnancy complications at a rate that is higher than any other race
- Black birthing people are 1.5 to 2 times more likely to suffer a stillbirth than white birthing people
- Black birthing people are more likely to report experiencing obstetric violence, discrimination, not being listened to, not being treated for pain or other symptoms, lack of access to care, and a poor/traumatic birth experience
