LOOKING for: Christmas Cookies
Comments (96)These cookie bars are so easy to make and very delicious. You can't eat just one! 2 sticks butter 1 c. granulated sugar 1 c light brown sugar, firmly packed 2 large eggs, well beaten 2 c. self-rising flour 1 c. toasted pecans (I used walnuts) 2 tsp. pure vanilla Directions: Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Melt butter and add sugars. Blend well by hand (no mixer). Add beaten eggs, stir well. Add self-rising flour and stir until the lumps are gone, just until blended. Add pecans and vanilla. Turn out into a greased and floured 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread with your fingers or a spatula dipped in water. Bake approximately 40 to 50 minutes (ovens vary) being careful not to over bake. When cool, cut into squares. Note: You can dust these with powdered sugar while still warm. I have also added a pinch of cinnamon to the sugar. You can use pecans or walnuts, both or good. I have also thrown in a 1/2 cup simi-sweet chocolate chunks, however the cookies are delicious without the chocolate. I made these in the medium pan I melted the butter in. No need to dirty a bowl. Quick & easy! You will like them!...See MoreAre you baking Christmas cookies? What kind?
Comments (104)I found the Eggnog Snickerdoodles on the cooking forum years ago. I made them last night and they were very good! I couldn't find Brandy extract so I just used cognac instead. I also added a little bit of cinnamon. Eggnog Snickerdoodles 2 3/4c flour 1 1/2c sugar 1 c butter, softened 2 eggs 2 tsp cream of tartar 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 tsp brandy extract 1/2 tsp rum extract 1/8 tsp nutmeg Sugar mix: 1/4c sugar 1tsp nutmeg Mix butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat. Add flour, cream of tartar brandy and rum extract, salt, soda and nutmeg. Mix well. Chill. Shape into 1 tsp sized balls. Roll in sugar mix. Bake 8-10 minutes at 350° or until cookies are lightly browned. Yields 2 dozen. Recipe easily doubles with no problem....See MoreChristmas Cookies Past....Diane/Craftyrn's Cuccidati
Comments (26)Anna's right. Miniature lemons in tubs do fruit nicely and are somewhat portable. I never thought of bringing it inside. What a great idea! Anna, does yours fruit in the Winter? Back on topic, y'know what we haven't made in forever and is a total classic? Oatmeal cookies! Surely they still exist. Or are people so stuck on their instant oatmeal, they won't buy a proper box of oats....See MoreChristmas Cookies
