Looking for some fun baking recipes for you and your troops this New Years Eve? Check out Safeway’s Pinterest boards for some sweet inspiration. I found a fun Sugar Cookie Pop recipe and Nate and I went to work making the dough.
The rest of the kids helped with the decorating.
Safeway has a great resource for your parties with a list of dessert and cocktail pairings as well as the Safeway Beverage Calculator, designed to help you determine the right amount of bevies to purchase for your New Year’s party.
Visit Safeway on Pinterest for holiday inspiration and recipes for holiday meals, sides, baking, and dessert and drink pairings. You can also head over to Safeway’s Facebook page to play the Pin2Win Sweepstakes to win a $50 gift card (the Sugar Cookie Pop recipe is one of the entry options!).
