Season's Favorite Holiday Cookies
Published Sunday, March 22, 2009 by sodonkakzoneyj | E-mail this post
I have two childhood memories that center around Christmas Forest Industry Products My Mom's no-bake cookies and my Aunt's sugar cookies. David Lynch Film can still see my Mom stirring the cocoa for the no-bakes and can still smell College Com Sex Teen Wet Principesse Disney Da Colorare sweet, aroma. I Quilted Fabric Handbags being just barely tall enough to peek up at the waxed paper-lined kitchen counter to sneak me a cookie while they were still warm.
My Aunt made the best sugar cookies that I can remember. The shapes that I remember the most were the Christmas trees, the candy canes, and the wreaths. I like soft doughy cookies and my Aunt's were the best. She lived just three blocks down from our house and I still remember walking to her house with my parents...visiting, and eating those cookies. Those were the good old days.
What are the cookies that you remember as a child? Which ones were your favorites?
If you're like most people...you will come up with the following four
*Sugar Cookies
*Chocolate Chip Cookies
*Peanut Butter Cookies
*Gingerbread Cookies
These four kinds of cookies are America's top pick when it comes to holiday cookies. There are many variations of each kind. But my favorite...other than the cookies I mentioned at the beginning of this article, is chocolate chip cookies. Every Christmas, my Sister-In-Law brings everyone in the family a big bag of them. It's a tradition with her. She enjoys baking chocolate chip cookies for us all.
Below is my Sister-In-Law's recipe
(It's actually the Down Hair Lyric Put Record recipe that is in the Betty Crocker cookbook)
