Spreads - I was inspired by the Pioneer Woman making these on her television show and decided to give her Spreads Cookie recipe a try for myself.

I love watching cooking shows on television to give me recipe ideas and things that I can try in my own kitchen. I literally could spend all day watching the creative things people are able to do on cooking shows. One of the shows that I usually find myself watching on the weekend is The Pioneer Woman.

I really enjoy watching her put a spin on recipes that you can use each and every day. Last weekend she shared her recipe for 'Spreads' which is a quick and easy cookie that you simply make by spreading the cookie dough onto a sheet pan instead of using a cookie cutter or forming individual cookies. This spreading method makes this recipe super fast to make and most of the ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen which make it even better.
