Graduation Hat Cookies and Favors Recipes

Sheet cakes for graduation open house parties are very expensive. And pretty though the cake may be, they usually taste like cardboard and sweetened shortening. How about cookies shaped like mortarboard graduation hats instead. Here's the recipe. We recently celebrated our son's graduation open house. I made graduation hat cookies instead of buying a cake. I saved about 75% of what I would have paid for a nice cake and there was no wasted cake. These yummy cookies went over big with young and old alike. Alas, I forgot to take pictures, so you'll have to use your imagination. But the concept is easy to follow. Since writing this, I saw these made with chocolate cupcakes instead of peanut butter cups (use mini muffins or larger packaged ones).Graduation Party Mortarboard Hat Cookies and Favors Recipes
