Transport thumbprint cookies without squishing them – Eat the mistakes

Thumbprint peanut butter chocolate hershey kiss cookies in a shoe box lid for easy shipping
Thumbprint cookies (you know, the little peanut butter cookies that have a thumbprint sized area in the middle, squished down with a Hershey kiss?) are awesome.
 
Obviously.
 
But they suck for trying to do anything with them other than eat them. Now normally this wouldn’t be an issue and they’d never make it past the baking sheet, but occasionally I do share my food.
 
No really. I swear I have pictures of it somewhere. Maybe.

But anyway, even just for making several dozen of these and storing them on your counter to indulge throughout the week, this makes those pointy chocolatey goodies on top much easier to manage. Just put them in a shoebox lid (or flat cardboard box like you’d get flats of canned goods in).
The tips will stay untouched and make it possible to wrap them without waiting for the chocolate to completely reharden (because really, it never does unless you refrigerate them).

Better yet, if you go the shoe box lid route, a gallon-size Ziploc bag will likely fit over it perfectly, which means no fighting with the cling wrap either!
 
So long as the bag fits tightly or the saran wrap is tight, you can stack a few of these for carrying purposes. I wouldn’t recommend having them stacked for too long, though, simply because the weight may eventually cause the plastic to sag and then you’ll have to eat the entire bottom row of squished mistakes.

Quirky Jessi likes to lick feet…and cook…yeah, cook…

Child writing spelling sentences. Says "I put a lime in the coconut and shook it all up. Jessi likes to cook. Jessi likes to lick my foot. I do not have a woolen coat."

Yes, yes I do. What’s it to ya? From B’s spelling sentences last year.

Anywho, we’ll keep it short. It’s Christmas, after all, and none of you are going to see this for a few more days at least, right? So hope your Christmas was a great one and that you’re still wearing your leopard Santa hats.

Leopard Santa hats and rainbow belts. Aww yeah! :P

~Edit~ Also, I made a tree. I’ll post details of it another time. For now, Merry Christmas…again. :)

Wrapping paper looks like burger – Would you like ribbon fries with that?

Actually, I’d love some curly fries now….

Unfortunately, this isn’t available for Christmas this year. It’s shame, too; I’ve seen it listed in so many places this season that I can only imagine how much they would’ve sold.

Instead, it’s on Kickstarter and you can “preorder,” in a sense, and expect orders to be filled in a couple months. They’ve already reached their funding goal by a long shot, so start thinking of the gifts you’d wrap in this awesome paper.

I’m thinking books are an obvious route, with them easily being the right shape and something you might give multiples of at once. Maybe boxes of chocolate for Valentine’s Day?
