Re: Favorite Christmas Cookie Recipes?

My kid is a freak for SnickerDoodles.  My dad is an oatmeal cookie junkie. So both are staples for Christmas though neither is necessarily a Christmas cookie.  I will have to see if I can do a spy mission to snake the recipes from my bride and my mom.

I love them all.  Though we do not have them in our home. Ever.  I have not upgraded my insulin pump with the super charger option.  Though when we are at my parents and my bride and my mom are tag-teaming and doing their baking and cooking magic together, I have been known to make a middle of the night acquisition mission downstairs to raid the cookie horde. 


If you can't listen and learn, you will have to feel.  WLR

Lemon Italian cookies

2 sticks butter melted
1 cup sugar
½ cup sour cream
3 eggs beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla or lemon extract

Beat eggs, add sugar, sour cream, and vanilla. Whisk together, add cooled, melted butter and mix well.

4 cups flour
¼ teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Mix with wooden spoon until soft dough forms. I use a kitchen aid mixer…this is an old school recipe though.

Drop by rounded teaspoon onto lightly greased cookie sheet….i just round them in my hands.
Bake 375 degrees 8-10 minutes on middle rack in oven.
Frost when cooled.

Frosting
¼ cup milk
Confectioners' sugar
Flavoring of your choice lemon/ anise
