It’s December so why not make some holiday Christmas themed cookies! These aren’t your normal cookies, when finished these will look like little fluff balls.

3 tsp of baking powder2 cups of chocolate chips
4 eggs
1 ½ cup butter (melted)
3 drops of green dye
3 tsp vanilla extract

When making the bars use a cake pan and line it with parchment paper so you can make sure the lemon filling stays put on the crust and doesn’t spill out over the edges.
Ingredients:
Shortbread Crust
1 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups of flour
1/2 cup sugar
Lemon Filling
2 cups sugar
6 Tablespoons flour
6 large eggs
1 cup of lemon juice or 4 squeezed lemons
Instructions: Cook crust at 350° for 20 minutes. After the crust is made, evenly spread it all over the pan. Make sure it is not too thin of a layer because the lemon filling will be poured on top. Once filling is on top, cook for another 20 minutes until it no longer jiggles.
These are the easiest cookies you could possibly make. There is no way you can get this wrong with using just 3 ingredients. If you love peanut butter, then these are for you.
