Instead of celebrating Valentine's Day this year with the usual box of chocolates, I created a set of cookies inspired by the Galentine's Day episode of Park's and Rec. These cookies are decorated with royal icing and feature a portrait of Leslie Knope, a plate of waffles with a dollop of whipped cream, and plaques with some of my favorite quotes from the show 🙂
