I've made a LOT of birthday style eats and treats before. What can I say? My kiddo and I love rainbows and sprinkles. And there's no time like the month of June to bust our the rainbow sprinkles and cake flavored amazingness. It’s pride month AND we I have a lot of family birthdays this month too! This is an older recipe, so I decide to go back and revisit it.
Originally I found the idea for these cookies and they looked amazing, but as most of you know I can't help but tinker around and put my 'skinny' spin on everything…

Pride month starts tomorrow and I’m going to play around with rainbows in the kitchen as much as I possible can to celebrate. So here’s to hoping that these Confetti Shortbread Cookies will be the first of many Pride friendly treats and eats to come along for the next 30 days or so. I’m no stranger to shortbread cookies and I can tell you first hand that the dough can be more than a little finicky. But, the dough for these Confetti Shortbread Cookies was simple, easy to make, and didn’t give me much fuss at all.
Shortbread cookies are crumbly and buttery and sort of melt away in your mouth, and these here are no exception. Even with less sugar, these Confetti Shortbread Cookies are perfectly sweet and cut out really well with hardly any spreading at all…

Back when I started all this 'Skinny Fork' madness, my kiddo was just a little 3-year-old tot. Now she's at the end of 6th grade. One thing that hasn't changed through the years, has been that I always, every year for her birthday, make some sort of rainbow funfetti style magic treat.
Yep! It's true. I've made birthday cake cinnamon rolls, fairy bites, and cake batter cookies. Just to name a few. This year though? She's all about chocolate chip cookies and cookie cakes. So, when I saw this chocolate chip cookie pizza, I knew I had to healthify that bad boy up as much as I could for the big weekend ahead of us!…

My daughter’s birthday is literally just around the corner. I can’t believe I’m about to have an 11 year old. Even so, I’m doing my very best to take this birthday extra special since, well, times are still rather strange in the world. One of the things I’m doing to make her day even more magical is making cake! Okay, so… not cake-cake. She had pretty specific instructions on wanting a cookie cake again this year. Which I’m totally down for.
The one I’m making for her actual birthday will be that Giant Cookie Cake from a couple years back. But, to get the party started early this long weekend, I decided to make this Funfetti Sugar Cookie Cake! It’s part cookie. Part cake. And a whole lot of sprinkles!…

Back when I originally made this, my amazing little girl wass turning 4 years old the very next day and I could hardly believe how fast time was flying! Today, she’s a month into 10! One of her most favorite things in the world when she was little (and still is today) are sprinkles. Every year for her birthday I always try to come up with a 'sprinkle' heavy (funfetti) dish in her honor.
Well, alright... so funfetti and sprinkles are a few of my most favorite things in the world as well. I mean... what's better than eating a rainbow? I like to imagine that it appeases my inner child for a while…
