Along with my sugar cookies, I’ve tried many, many different formulations for royal frosting. This one, however, is the best of them all.

Have you ever tried Hershey’s Cherry Cordial kisses? If not, you need to. They taste like a cordial cherry minus the whole cherry. They are only available during the holidays which is another reason why I love this time of the year so much. I usually find them in the Holiday section at Target. If […]
