Cookie Hacks for the Holiday Strapped-for-time Baker

October 7, 2015 by Juliann

Can you believe that the Holidays are right around the corner? I really don’t want to be thinking about them already, but the fact is that they are coming. This time of year, it seems everyone is strapped for time. Among Friend’s Baking Mixes can certainly help you to make delicious baked goods that taste better than homemade.

In fact, Among Friend’s mantra is “homemade without the hassle,” and that is so important this time of year! I know that I can use any help I can get in the kitchen. I have never been much a baker, so I am always on the lookout for recipes and/or mixes that will allow me to quickly create something yummy.

Among Friends Baking Mixes are better-for-you and packed with whole grains, but most of all…delicious! I received a sample mix of Among Friends Phil’em up Chocolate Cranberry Cookie mix.

Making these cookies was so easy! All I needed was an egg, 4 Tbsps of butter and 1 Tsp of vanilla. I just hand mixed it all together. You can see all of the cranberries and chocolate chips in the mix.

After putting them in the oven for 7-9 minutes, they turned out perfect! They were delicious and my entire family approved!

Among Friends has several other delicious cookie mixes to choose from, so be sure to check them out!

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
