Make Father’s Day the Best Yet June 02 2015

Trivia: Bud Cason, founder of Bud’s Best Cookies, actually invented the bite-size cookie. You might say he’s the father of the bite-size cookie.

So in honor of Father’s Day, make Bud proud by taking our cookie survey:

If your dad were a cookie, which one would he be?

  1. The classic but relaxed Vanilla Wafer
  2. The friendly and fun Teddy Bear?
  3. The wholesome and strong Oatmeal Cookie?

         

Let us know on Instagram by sharing a picture of your dad with his favorite cookie. Be sure to tag @BudsBestCookies in the picture.

Psst…In case you’re wondering….Bud would be the Teddy Bear!

And be sure to come back to our online shop before Father’s Day for a special sale for dads (and everyone else who loves our cookies).

There are so many fun ways to eat Bud’s Best Oatmeal Cookies; here are a few of our fan favorites:

  • Why be wedded to a box of cereal when you can eat a bag of cereal? Actions: Pour into your favorite cereal bowl. Add milk. Ahh….heaven.

  • Do you bake? If so, try Bud’s Best Oatmeal Cookies as a pie topping or add them to your favorite crust recipe.
  • Cookie sandwich, take 1: Put icing in the middle of two of our oatmeal cookies. Bonus: it’s a fun activity for your kids to help assemble.
  • Cookie sandwich, take 2: Not much can be better than icing in the middle of two oatmeal cookies…but if there was a second best, try a dab of ice cream. Your taste buds will thank you, promise.

How to make a Cupcake Train using Bud’s Best Cookies May 12 2015

All aboard the cupcake choo-choo train. Here's what one fan did with our cookies .

Ingredients:

  • Red tablecloth
  • Roll of electrical tape
  • One sleeve of graham crackers
  • One bag of large-sized marshmallows
  • One 5oz. package of Uncle Al’s Chocolate Crèmes
  • Vanilla frosting
  • Toothpicks
  • 12 Cupcakes

Directions:

  1. Fold tablecloth to form a long, narrow track. (Or you can wrap a piece of cardboard in red wrapping paper if you prefer to have a movable base.)
  2. Place electrical tape in two (4-inch) strips parallel to one another. Then cut 8-inch strips and run those horizontally/perpendicular to the created tracks.
  3. Slide marshmallows on ends of toothpick, making two sets of wheel bases. Then place graham crackers on top.
  4. Connect Uncle Al’s Chocolate Crèmes to marshmallows with a dab of icing.
  5. Place cupcakes on top of graham crackers to complete your train.
  6. Add toy train to the front so the cupcakes are being “pulled” by an engine. This fan used her son’s favorite train, Thomas, but you can use any train to complete the look!
