Cookie Stroll

I went to the Epcot International Festival of Holidays Cookie Stroll for the first time

I missed going last year...so I went on the first day I was not blacked out 

There are 13 cookies on this years stroll, although you only need to buy five cookies to get the festival treat/prize!

My choices...

Maple Leaf Shortbread {my fav}
Yukon Holiday Kitchen

Chocolate Snicker Bar
American Holiday Table

Salted Caramel Spaceship Earth
Experimental Prototype
 Cookies of Tomorrow 

Coffee Mocha
Mele Kalikimaka Holiday Kitchen

Cranberry-Oatmeal
Holiday Hearth Desserts

The prize was a spatula, mini M & M's, and a peanut butter cookie recipie 

I wasn't quite a glutton, I brought baggies so I could savor them later

I hope to go back, there's a couple I still have my eye on, plus Ill probably get another Maple 🍁 Shortbread
