With my new apron on, snow falling outside, and Christmas music filling the house, it was a perfect day to bake cookies!
Here are the two recipes I made today:
First, was an Andes Mint cookie from Mrs. Clark's Kitchen. Karen is the mother of a good friend from college, and I can tell you without even trying them that I recommend everything on her blog! She has great tips for this cookie - there really isn't much to add. They are DELICIOUS! Here's how mine turned out:
The second recipe I made was a shortbread cookie. This was one of the top shortbread recipes on allrecipes.com, called Melt-in-your-mouth Shortbread, and it truly does! One tip for this site if you haven't used it before is to always look at the reviews! Some people rate the recipe very well, but make a lot of changes. Some people have tips that may have been left out of the original recipe, as well. Luckily, they are sorted by which are most helpful, so by reading the first 10-15 reviews, you should get the information you need. With the help of some of these reviews, my cookies turned out great!
If you're in town, come see us, because we have plenty of cookies to share!!
