It that time of the year again — Cookie Time!
My wife is on her 6th and more types of Christmas Cookie.
I can’t keep up — there are Snickerdoodle's, chocolate chip squares, peanut butter cookies, gingerbread cookies, a soft salty sweet chocolate chip cookie that can’t be described, and others.

This is only a few of the butter cookies she made using her grandmothers recipe. They are “melt in your mouth” and I got in trouble by eating the 6 of them that were on the upper right of the cooling rack. I tried to redistribute the red and unsprinkled ones to cover the rack but was caught.

@Lil D makes a snickerdoodle with apple butter in it that is hands down one of the best cookies I’ve ever eaten.

I have the ginger at home to start the gingersnaps, will probably candy a bunch tonight. Alton Brown recipe, minor tweaks.

Thinking about my grandmother’s Gigulanas feel free to give it a try:
Gigulana

Ingredients
7 cups Crisco, that's 3 1/2 pounds)
5 cups sugar
2 oranges, zest only, grated
9 eggs, beaten
1/2 quart milk
3 1/2 ounces baking powder
2 pounds sesame seeds
24 cups flour, that's 6 pounds

Directions
Cream shortening.
Add sugar and grated rind.
Add beaten eggs to batter, then milk, then flour and baking powder.
Knead until dough leaves hands.
Roll pieces of dough between palms to form 2 1/2" long cylinders. Wet the seeds slightly and roll the dough in the seeds.
Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees.


May also make her Bucellati this year, gotta find that one. You guys are making me feel like I’m behind!

My mom has made a hobby of making and decorating cookies the last couple years. To brag on her, these are some she made to sell for the holidays.

The cookie stealing doesn’t bother me as much but when @Burt Gummer steals all the crispy parts off a casserole or a pound cake he gets popped lol.

I'd have put myself in hospital trying to get through that whole stack!

I suppose that could be interpreted two ways. ::beatup::
