Butter Spritz Cookies
Butter Spritz Cookies are a classic cookie that are so easy to make. Christmas cookies are always the best! I recently received my great-grandmother's cookie press. I love it. I love that it was my great-grandma's and that I can use it with my kids. We had fun using all the different plates to make different shapes. They loved the butterfly and scotty dog. If you don't have a cookie press, get one! They aren't expensive like this Cookie Press on Amazon. They are so much easier than cut … [Read more...]
Shortcut Linzer Cookies
These are another favorite cookie of mine. They remind me of Christmas, since that is when my aunt makes her Linzer cookies and give them out to us. They are so melt-in-your mouth delicious. They are very dangerous to eat. I can never stop at just one!The traditional Linzer Cookie has two layers with the jam in between. I made a shortcut version that tastes just as amazing with less time and effort.I add finely crushed pecans, but you don't have to. But I think you really should. You … [Read more...]
Crescent Cookies
These Crescent Cookies just scream "Christmas!" to me. My aunt's family is from Germany and she makes these for us all every Christmas. Only her way takes one week. Yes. One whole week. She doesn't use any spoons, mixers, nothing. Just her hands. And she makes a ton of them. Then they have to sit in the dark for a week. I look forward to them every year. She also makes another kind called "Linzer Cookies" They are similar to these Crescent Cookies only they are two layers with a cutout on the … [Read more...]

Eggnog Donuts
Eggnog Donuts have that delicious flavor that is so loved this time of year! These donuts couldn't be any easier to make. Who's ready to start their holiday baking and neighbor gifting? I like to keep things simple since we live in a tiny community and pretty much give treats to everyone. That's a lot of treats to make. Big batches of Christmas cookies, fudge or other edible Christmas gifts are what I lean towards. I love the non-food gifts but that can add up when gifting over 30 families. … [Read more...]
Totally Tasty Tuesdays #206
Happy Almost Thanksgiving! I hope you all enjoy your meal and remember all you have to be thankful for. As of right now, my husband will be gone to WY for Thanksgiving, which makes me so sad. My kids and I will be at my family's this year for Thanksgiving, which helps a little, but I still hope he gets to be with us. So I could be bitter and mopey, but at least he has a job. I could say, Dang BP and their stupid lack of family values for not shutting down the oil field during the holidays. … [Read more...]
