Cookie Monster - Why wait until Halloween to satisfy your sweet tooth when you can get a head start this month and snack on cookies all month long? October is national cookie month and cookies reign supreme at The Beechmont Inn in Hanover, Pennsylvania where Kathryn, the innkeeper bakes a fresh batch of cookies daily ranging from lemon, ginger snaps, chocolate chips, white chip, mint chip to oatmeal raisins. Guests can even make special requests for their favorite cookies in the morning and look forward to a sweet surprise by mid-afternoon. Don’t be surprised if you find the cookie jar empty in the morning, just put in your request again the next morning while sitting down to a gourmet breakfast of spice pancakes with lemon sauce, bacon, fresh fruit and homemade bread and muffins.
If traditional cookies seem like a bore, stop by The Artist’s Inn and Gallery in Terre Hill, Pennsylvania and let Jan, the innkeeper impress you with unique cookie recipes ranging from sour cream chocolate chip, coconut oatmeal to the inn’s signature raspberry chocolate chip. Guests don’t have to look very hard to find the never-ending cookie jar as the aroma of fresh-baked cookies permeates throughout the inn. Sit down on the porch and have your cookies with hot cider, hot chocolate, tea or wine. Don’t forget to ask the innkeeper for your favorite cookie recipe and be sure to sample some local Amish fare while you’re in town.
