Party Cookies and Another Birthday Month Giveaway!

 I love a sandwich cookie.
I mean, instead of one cookie, you get two, plus some sort of yummy filling.  So it's like you're cheating the system a little.
I made these cookies on my birthday...all for me!
 Well, I guess I shared a bit, but they are the perfect party cookie!  
They are super cute because they are mini, so you can eat more...isn't that how it works?
Here are the details:
Make your dough and roll into 1 inch size balls.
Then gather your sprinkles.
Grease the bottom of a sturdy glass with either cooking spray or shortening
Dip your prepared glass into the sprinkles or sanding sugar you chose
Then press the glass on the dough like this to flatten the balls
So they look like this...
Then you bake them up until they JUST start to turn golden on the bottom.  Don't overbake!!
Here's how they will look after you bake them...
 Let them cool and then you want to fill them with some frosting!  Yum!
I baked a few without the sprinkles and decided to roll the edges in the colorful sugar instead
Then you eat them. 
They are about the size of a 50 cent piece for those of you who are familiar with money from the "olden' days"

So, I tell you it's my birthday, basically to solicit more birthday wishes.
I'm kind of a birthday whore.
But, again, with those much appreciated birthday wishes I give you something in return.
Isn't that nice of me?!
How about a $25 gift certificate to spend at Cooperstown Cookies?
Cooperstown Cookies create all natural shortbread cookies and are the only gourmet cookie licensed by MLB® & National Baseball Hall of Fame®.
With baseball season in full swing (hehe) send a gift to someone who's a fan, or order something for yourself to support your favorite team.
Or they have these super cool baseball cookie cutters that have the stitches already in the cutter, so you can ice them, or you don't have to!
How cool, right?!

Here's your 2 chances to win:
1) Leave me a comment telling me your favorite baseball team.
2) Visit Cooperstown Cookie Company's facebook page and "like" them and then leave me a comment telling me you did it.

As usual, leave me your email address so I can contact you and let you know you won.
Contest ends Friday 11:59 pm and a winner will be chosen using random.org
UNLESS you're a Yankee's fan and then you are automatically disqualified ;)
Just kidding, this is an equal opportunity contest!
Good Luck! 

Contest is closed.
The winner is Cookie Sleuth!
She left comment #102 chosen by random.org
Thanks everyone for entering :)

Happy Birthday to you! :) I have to say, both cookies are cute. Were they sugar cookie dough with buttercream frosting? I don't really know other types of frostings, so please refresh me. =]
