Snickerdoodles and Snowballs

Crisco for the first and butter in the later!

.We made a double batch of each. 12 dozen--ish!

We 'cross' the snickerdoodles with a fork when we press them on the sheet..
The kind we make are not 'light' but more crisp and great for dunkin'.

The snowballs are just sugary-goodness!!!
These are rolled in powdered sugar when warm and more when they cool!

I grew up making these with the family.
If you eat one from every tray....well, I now have a tummy ache!

We're making the obligatory cookies and milk for Santa. Nothing fancy just some sugar cookies and chocolate chippers.

Didn't make any, however, my mom always makes a ton and then sends them off to us kids that can't make it home for Christmas.

This year it's:

cream wafers
peanut butter cookies
2 types of sugar cookies
chocolate oatmeal
raisin
chocolate covered cherry
krumkake (norwegian waffle cookie)
chocolate kiss cookies
gingerbread
snickerdoodles
spritz cookies

and
english toffee

I wonder if the snowball cookies are similar to a cookie my mom makes from time to time called "russian tea cakes." She didn't make any this year unfortunately.

Made a couple of batches of no-bake cookies. Milk, butter, sugar, cocoa, peanut butter and oatmeal. Lay em out on wax paper and they harden right up if you did it right!

Here's the recipe I've been using: http://allrecipes.co...s-i/Detail.aspx

Wife was a machine this year:

10 pumkin nut rolls (these are killer, and a magnificent pain in the ass (PITA))
15dozen pizelles (family recipe)
15 dozen christmas cookies (basically plain sugar cookies)
4 dozen chocolate chip (store mix)
4 dozen chocolate chocolate chip (store mix)
about 5 pounds of micorwave fudge (cheater's fudge made of chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, butter salt...stuff like that)

Secret Recipe Chocolate Chip Cookies! Awesome cookies! Sorry, recipe is a secret!

[beyond the band]

We had a cookie exchange party Saturday. I baked all the cookies on our end, cause I'm the resident cook/ baker.

Made a double batch of my famous chocolate chippers, a batch of snickredoodles for the first time, a batch of peanut butter chocolate chipers, and a double batch of sugar cookies that the kids used the cutters and decorated.

last week I made caramels CARAMEL Holy effing shit this was freaking awesome!
