We celebrated National Homemade Cookie Day at school again this year on October 1st. I put out an "all call" to those that wanted to take part the week before and sent out reminders. The teachers and students had Monday, Sept. 30th off so I had to remind them before their long weekend. It was a busy morning because it was also our School Picture Day and the staff picture is taken before school starts. I had taken that Monday off, but the building was open so I snuck in that afternoon to set the table/room up. I had done something to my neck that weekend and was dealing with a muscle spasm so I opted for a simpler cookie - Brown Butter Brown Sugar cookies.
Believe it or not, these are both supposed to be dark brown sugar. They're from different packages. I think the one on the right might have been mislabeled but it didn't affect the taste.
I pre-rolled all the balls and kept them on a sheet of parchment paper which helped things go a little faster.
As we did last year, I put out a collection jar for those that did not bake to make a donation. All the money collected went into our Student Activity Fund to be used for those students who might have a need for assistance during the school year.
I asked everyone to bring their recipe to share also. It was a delicious assortment. (There were a couple additional cookies not pictured.)
looks so yummy!

Yum, what a lovely looking collection of cookies. Funny about the two sugars being so different. I always think the darker ones have a more treacly taste, but I've never done a side-by-side taste test! You could make a great sandcastle with it.
