Cinnamon French Toast Cookies

No more sugar cookies this year! I tried them last year for Halloween and Christmas, so this year I wanted to try different types of cookies, not necessarily gingerbread or spiced cookies (which are a must, so you can expect a new recipe from us soon).

I found the recipe for Cinnamon French Toast Cookies from Bakers Royale, I took a look at the ingredients I needed and set off to the store to get all my ingredients for my cookie baking bonanza. I chose to include this recipe on our Christmas repertoire because the ingredients are Christmassy enough, and the name is pretty catchy. I just wanted to try them.

They did not disappoint. They are easy to make, and the flavor is fantastic. They really do taste like french toasts… think about it, sugar, eggs, maple syrup and the cream cheese adds the dairy element. You won’t be sorry if you try this recipe!
