Ice cream season is here and we're all screaming for ice cream in our house! 😁 So I couldn't pass up the chance to turn one of my favorite cookies or biscuits into ice cream, hence this No-Churn Biscoff Cookie ice cream!

A Charming Mickey & Minnie Inspired Party
This post is sponsored by the KEEP Collective but all opinions are my own. The magic surrounding the Mickey & Minnie Disney characters is undeniable. As a birthday theme it remains as popular today as it did back when I was a little girl, when I begged my mom to have a Mickey theme for my 9th birthday. This was the beginning of my love affair with all things Disney! Now that I'm all grown up and have a little girl of my own, I still find myself drawn to this charming party theme. And as party blogger, I witness first hand how much the characters are loved by kids and parents alike.
I can't complain when food (especially the sweet kind..) takes over the blog for a whole week. And today we have the second of Gillian's Baby Shower desserts table recipes for ya - Jelly Crystal Cookies . Sounds funky, right?! And it's gluten-free too! Get the full easy-to-make the recipe below...
These scrumptious Olympic Ring Cookies are the creation of none other than the cookie queen herself, Meaghan from The Decorated Cookie !

Valentine's Day is around the corner and I wanted share with Bird's Party readers a really yummy treat you can make for your friends, dear ones, children or for yourself.

With the Jubilee weekend coming up on the 2, 3, 4 and 5th June, the UK will be coming together in celebration of the Diamond Anniversary of the Queen's Coronation 60 years ago!

I did snap loads of pics a usual, but below's a taster of the day...Oh, and because I made a lot of the stuff by hand, there'll be some tutorials coming all this week! :)
Rainbow Cookie Cake Recipe
If you happen to have seen my last cookie cake recipe , you know how much I love making (and eating...) them! Cookie cakes have become my go-to dessert "centerpiece" for any festive occasion.

But cookie cakes combine the best of the cookie AND cake world in one simple recipe! Hence my current obsession.
