The countertops were blue, but they looked like a sky speckled with fluffy clouds when we were there. Grandma’s kitchen. Flour would be all over the counter, all over our clothes and all over the ground, but she didn’t seem to mind. There was patience and love in that kitchen. I looked forward to making homemade noodles with my grandma more than almost anything. When I think back on my childhood, the time spent in her kitchen is some of my most treasured moments. It feels like home to me.

Baking and cooking with Harris and Goldie is a fun tradition I would love to instill in our home. Baking holiday cookies will be something that I want them to remember well, and when they are thinking back on their childhood, I want the smell of chocolate wafting from the oven and the feelings of patience and love from their mama to take them back to these days in the kitchen with me when their day is hectic and crazy.

We teamed up with an unexpected partner for this holiday baking post. Lee Kum Kee, the maker of authentic Asian sauces and condiments, is the secret to this savory sweet sesame oil holiday cookies recipe. They’re perfect for people who like a cookie that is a bit nutty and savory with added sweetness from the M&M’s. Lee Kum Kee Pure Sesame Oil adds a subtle toasted sesame flavor that’s a must for holiday baking. Not only does the brand make quality sauces, it’s also celebrating 130 years since starting as a family-run business. Lee Kum Kee has really great recipe ideas on their website as well, and I’m looking forward to trying their dinners in the New Year!

SWEET AND SAVORY SESAME OIL HOLIDAY COOKIES RECIPE

Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cups light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Lee Kum Kee Pure Sesame Oil
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup white sesame seeds
  • Maldon or flaky salt, for topping
  • 1 bag M&M’s or chocolate chips
Directions
  1. In a large mixing bowl (I use my Bosch), add the melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, sesame oil and canola oil. Mix until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, until combined. Pour in the vanilla extract and mix.
  2. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sesame seeds. Mix the dough just until no flour speckles appear. Add the M&M’s or chocolate chips and mix once more. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and transfer to the fridge to chill for an hour or up to 2 days.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silpat mat.
  4. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop out balls of dough. If you don’t have a medium cookie scoop, use your hands to shape balls of dough. If it’s super chilled, you may need to push some dough into the scoop so it’s nice and compact and then release the lever.
  5. Place 12 balls of cookie dough onto baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake for about 9-11 minutes, depending on your oven. If the dough is super cold, it may need up to 11 minutes to bake. They should be very light brown when they come out of the oven, almost slightly doughy. Sprinkle with a few pinches of salt upon exiting the oven. Repeat until you’ve baked all the cookies and keep the cookies on the baking sheet to cool.
  6. To freeze dough, add the cookie dough balls to a baking sheet and stick in the freezer until very cold, about 20 minutes and then transfer to a freezer-safe plastic bag.

I posted this the other day on my IG stories and s I posted this the other day on my IG stories and so many of you were like, “😅 Good to hear!!” So I’ll say it again for those of you who need it.

My twins are almost 5 (in July) and it is SO.MUCH.EASIER 😭 at this age 🤣🤣🤣 Tyler and I actually cannot even believe it. Traveling with them is actually 100% FUN and not 100% exhausting like it was before 😂

So...if you need to hear it...you’ve got this. You’ll make it through the insane toddler stage.

Every day is a gift AND it’s really hard and I’m here to tell you that it gets SO MUCH EASIER! 👏🏻

JUST BECAUSE IT’S HARD DOESN’T MEAN YOU’RE NOT GRATEFUL!

To all the twin moms who came before me and said 5 was easier, you were right. And thank you 😂 #twinmom #momoftwins
“Mix a little foolishness with your serious plan “Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.” - Horace

For me, one of the best things in the world about being a mom is that they help me to remember the things I once knew, but forgot. Being fully present and accepting what is in the moment, being silly, getting SO EXCITED, and seeing the world with magic.

We all knew these things once. We just forgot a little. 💗💙 #parcellsundayselfie 4/11/21

What is your favorite thing you’ve learned from the beautiful children in your life?
The best part of this phase of life with little ki The best part of this phase of life with little kids is it’s like Team Parcell, you know? Our little group. We can go anywhere and do anything together and just be so happy and grateful that it’s us 4 together. 😭

This is what I want for all who want it. It’s why I absolutely love teaching the tools I do over at @thesliceofsun for women with infertility. They allow you peace of mind in this really hard trial. Why I LOVE you and understand those of you who are in the thick of it so much.

Feeling so grateful for the people in my life including all of you. What a wonderful world 🌎 #lovethesepeople #familyvacations

Happy Easter! I’ve been thinking a lot about WHY Happy Easter! I’ve been thinking a lot about WHY I want to learn so much more about my Savior as I get older and I’ve decided it’s because I need Him more.

Children don’t have the voice of the adversary in their ears all the time. We do.

My Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ SAVES me from the chaos. He is the peace where it doesn’t make sense for peace to exist.

He knows me and cares for me with a perfect love. The only thing I can slightly compare it to is the love I have for my children. A love so big that forgiveness is possible over and over...and over again.

A love so big He was willing to give His life so we could be saved.

I’ll never be able to repay that debt but I’ll spend every day I have in gratitude and use His atonement that He made for me. For each of us. It will not have been in vain for me.

God be thanked for the matchless gift of His Divine Son 🙏 He is risen! #heisrisen #comeuntochrist #easter2021
Bluebird day up at Snowbird! It was 70 degrees and Bluebird day up at Snowbird! It was 70 degrees and we kept trying to figure out to take off layers while also protecting ourselves if we fell 🤣 This is my mom and step dad - my ski buddies who I always go skiing with!

I ended up getting sunburned on my arms 😂Welcome to spring skiing in Utah!! 😍 ❄️ ⛄️ #snowbirdresort #springskiing #greatestsnowonearth
