No date on Valentine's Day? Gather a group of your best girlfriends and have a girlie night in with these delicious Galentines Day Cookies! If you already have plans, you can still make these for your besties!

There's something ever so comforting about cookies and they make a great gift, whether it be for Valentines or Galentines Day!
Note: most of these recipes require baking in the oven (well except for the jelly recipes at the end). After so much baking- I just delivered an order of 10 jars of peanut cookies- I realise that the placement of the oven at counter-height is so important for preventing backache!

Tip: you can also try substituting half of the butter in these recipes with bacon fat, to give your bakes even deeper flavour.

Galentines Day Girls night = cookies + gossip + movies! Since I've provided the cookie recipes, I should also mention some films. Some of my favourite movies about female friendships include:
- Beaches - old but gold
- Romy and Michele's High School Reunion
- Wild Child
- The sisterhood of the travelling pants
- Sex and the City (the original series not the movies!)
