**Easter M&M Cookies**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups Easter-themed M&M’s (plus extra for topping)
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

**Directions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until no flour streaks remain. Avoid overmixing.
5. Gently fold in 1 cup of the Easter M&M’s and the chocolate chips (if using), reserving the remaining 1/2 cup for pressing onto the cookies before baking.
6. Scoop 1 1/2-tablespoon portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Press a few extra M&M’s onto the tops of each cookie for a festive look.
7. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly soft. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.
8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy these colorful, chewy cookies with a glass of milk or as a sweet Easter treat!

**Monster Cookie Balls**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup mini M&M’s (plus extra for topping)
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate melting wafers (for coating)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)

**Directions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and softened butter. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and fully blended, about 2 minutes.
2. Add the rolled oats, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. The mixture will be thick and slightly crumbly but should hold together when pressed.
3. Fold in the mini M&M’s and mini chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
4. Scoop 1-tablespoon portions of the dough and roll into balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
5. Melt the chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. For a thinner consistency, stir in the coconut oil.
6. Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each chilled cookie ball in the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Return to the parchment-lined sheet and immediately sprinkle with extra mini M&M’s before the chocolate sets.
7. Allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature (about 1 hour) or refrigerate for 15 minutes for faster setting.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

**The BEST Honey Butter**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1/4 cup raw honey (or high-quality liquid honey)
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

**Directions:**
1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened butter. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed for 1–2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
2. Reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly drizzle in the honey. Once fully incorporated, increase the speed to medium and beat for another 1–2 minutes until the mixture is fluffy and well combined.
3. Add the vanilla extract and sea salt. Mix again on low speed for 30 seconds, then scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure everything is evenly blended.
4. Taste and adjust sweetness or salt if desired. For a stronger honey flavor, add an extra tablespoon of honey and mix briefly.
5. Transfer the honey butter to an airtight container or shape it into a log using parchment paper for easy slicing. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up, or use immediately for a softer spread.

**Visual Cues:**
- The butter should be pale yellow and creamy before adding honey.
- When fully whipped, the mixture will be light, airy, and slightly fluffy.

**Serving Tips:**
- Spread on warm biscuits, toast, or cornbread.
- Drizzle over roasted vegetables or grilled meats for a sweet-savory twist.

**Sparkling Cream Floats**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 pint high-quality vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup chilled heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 12 oz chilled sparkling water (flavor of choice, such as lemon-lime or berry)
- Fresh berries or mint leaves for garnish (optional)

**Directions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. The whipped cream should hold its shape but remain smooth and airy. Set aside.

2. Scoop 2 small or 1 large scoop of vanilla ice cream into each serving glass (tall glasses work best). Gently press the ice cream to the bottom to create a sturdy base.

3. Slowly pour the chilled sparkling water over the ice cream, filling the glass about three-quarters full. The mixture will fizz slightly—this is normal!

4. Top each float with a generous dollop of the freshly whipped cream, allowing it to float on top like a cloud.

5. Garnish with fresh berries or a sprig of mint for a pop of color and extra freshness.

6. Serve immediately with a long spoon and a straw for sipping the creamy, fizhy goodness. Enjoy before the ice cream melts for the best texture!

**Creamsicle Orange Cookies**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest (about 1 large orange)
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- ½ teaspoon orange food coloring (optional, for vibrant color)

**Directions:**
1. **Prep:** Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. **Cream butter and sugar:** In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
3. **Add wet ingredients:** Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, orange zest, and orange juice until fully combined. If using food coloring, add it now and mix until evenly distributed.
4. **Combine dry ingredients:** In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in white chocolate chips.
5. **Scoop dough:** Use a 1½-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion dough onto prepared sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each ball slightly with your palm.
6. **Bake:** Place one sheet at a time in the oven. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and centers look set (they’ll firm up as they cool). Rotate the pan halfway for even baking.
7. **Cool:** Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

**Red, White, and Blue Drink**

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat, chilled)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for sweetness)

**Directions:**
1. **Prepare the fruit syrups:** In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons water. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften and the mixture thickens slightly. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing gently to extract the liquid. Discard the solids and let the syrup cool. Repeat the process with the blueberries, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons water.

2. **Assemble the layers:** Fill a tall glass with 1/2 cup ice cubes. Pour 1/4 cup of the strawberry syrup over the ice, letting it settle at the bottom.

3. **Create the white layer:** In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Slowly pour 1/3 cup of this mixture over the back of a spoon onto the strawberry layer to create a distinct white middle layer.

4. **Add the blue layer:** Gently pour 1/4 cup of the blueberry syrup over the back of a spoon onto the white layer, allowing it to settle on top.

5. **Serve immediately:** Garnish with a few fresh blueberries and a strawberry slice on the rim for a festive touch. Stir before drinking if desired, or enjoy the layered effect.

**Tips:**
- For a smoother texture, blend the strawberry and blueberry syrups before straining.
- Chill all ingredients beforehand to keep the layers distinct.
- Adjust sweetness by adding honey to the coconut milk mixture if needed.
