This holiday season was an amazing one for baking cookies. Although we didn't get to do all the cookies we wanted, we did make some new ones from the norm.
My sister in law wanted to take her chances with Italian Butter Cookies. With the appeal, she decided to give them a whirl. After many teaks, they turned out FANTASTIC! She dipped the ends in milk chocolate and "Jimmies" of all different colors. My favorite were the rainbow ones of course. These cookies didn't stay around long after Christmas Eve dinner. The recipe she used was from Cooks.com.
My favorite cookies are the ones my mom used to make, "Santa's Whiskers." These contain candied cherries with the dough rolled in coconut. You can find the recipe on Betty Crocker or Land O lakes websites. For the first time this year, I didn't roll it in coconut. My husband isn't a big fan. The problem was that they were so moist and yummy, that they broke apart easily. I still have a bag of all the pieces, perfect bite-sized yummies.
My next blog will be regarding my new testing of cupcake recipes. These will be coming from cupcakeproject.com.
