Beth Klosterboer, blogger & cookbook author
Hi, I’m Beth, and I am so excited you stopped by. I have been a professional baker, chocolatier, and party planner for over 30 years. I opened my first cookie and candy shop in Louisville, Kentucky back in 1989 then another one in Centerville, Ohio in 1995.
After years of operating retail stores, I decided to move online. I no longer sell my desserts. Instead, I have been creating fun food crafts and unique party recipes to share on my blog, HungryHappenings.com, since 2011.
Beth's cookbooks
I have also written four cookbooks:
- Candy Clay Creations
- How To Make Easy Fudge (co-authored with Meaghan)
- How To Make Cereal Treats (co-authored with Meaghan)
- Hungry Halloween
I cannot wait to share all of my favorite easy cookie recipes with you here on this website.
On this site, How To Make Easy Cookies, we plan to share simple cookie recipes that are easy enough to make for an afternoon snack including drop cookies, bar cookies, simple cut-out cookies, and more.
If you prefer to make more elaborate cookies, like those pictured above be sure to check out over 100 cookie recipes and decorating ideas over on my Hungry Happenings blog.
I am always open to answering your questions about candy making or baking, so be sure to stop by Hungry Happenings and take a look around.
