If you’re like most people, you probably think of your dad as the man who cooked dinner and cleaned up after you when you were a kid. But there are many other things your dad did for you during your childhood and adolescence. Here are some delicious Father’s Day cookies that will show how much he loved you.

  1. Dad’s favorite cookie: The classic chocolate chip cookie. Dad would often make these cookies at home, and they’re always a hit with the family.
  2. A special treat for dad: A father’s day cake is always a special occasion, and this recipe from The Pioneer Woman is no exception. It’s made with layers of chocolate cake, cream cheese frosting, and a layer of peppermint extract-scented cream cheese frosting.
  3. A sweet memory: One of the most cherished memories your dad has is when he made you his first batch of cookies on Father’s Day back in 1978. They still taste as good today as they did then!
