These yummy bar cookies are so quick to make I hardly had time to take pictures of the process. Also they are so good to eat I never got any more pictures of the cute little yummy squares of these. Now they are gone. But they were so good! The recipe has been around for years. I remember Patti making…

Raspberry Swirl Cookies
I found this recipe on Food.com while browsing for cookies and these looked nice. They were a pretty addition to the cookie party. Didn’t blow anyone away but kept the variety interesting. Not too hard to make and can roll up, freeze or refrigerate to bake later. INGREDIENTS 1⁄2 cup butter, softened (not margarine) 1 cup sugar 1 large egg…
Raspberry Almond Thumbprint Cookies
I guess I never took pictures of these close up! These were really pretty too! I found the recipe on Sally’s Baking Addiction and used one of her beautiful pictures. Mine turned out almost as pretty but equally delicious. Well, I can’t really say since I haven’t tasted hers but mine were really yummy! Here is a picture of our…
Molasses cookies
I made so many cookies with Henry this year these didn’t get photographed. They turned out picture perfect though. They were chewy and had the cracks in the sugar coating and the spices tasted great. I still have some dough in the freezer. When I thaw that out for another batch I will post some pictures. For now look hard…
Italian Christmas Cookies with Ricotta
These cookies are very light and cake like with a yummy frosting. For our Christmas cookie party I made the frosting with almond extract and vanilla extract. For New Years I dug out my homemade vanilla from last january and found the one I made with whiskey instead of vodka. The vanilla had a whiskey smell and masked the vanilla…
Holly Leaves and Berries
These turned out so pretty! Again, I used the Kittencal cookie recipe, dipped in green melting chocolate and added 3 sour cherry balls. When I dipped the cookie in the melted chocolate (or green colored melting candy coating) the gravity as it drips makes a pretty pattern in the coating. The cookie itself was good. Not a fan of the…
Stained Glass Cookie Experiment
I really wanted to make these stained glass cookies this year. I used the Kittencal’s cookie recipe and crushed jolly ranchers for the stained glass. The first time I tried making the Christmas light bulb shaped cookies. I call this a fail. They didn’t even taste good because the candy was too hard to eat. The next try I made…
Kittencal’s Buttery Cut-Out Sugar Cookies
I don’t know who Kittencal is but her recipe for sugar cookies is a good one! She also includes the recipe for icing that hardens but we never tried that as we were dipping in melted chocolate. I followed it exactly and it was perfect! INGREDIENTS 1 cup butter, softened 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla 1⁄2 teaspoon…
