BTW....I usually spend a fortune on ingredients for my cookies...I have kids to buy for too.  Last week Acme had butter onsale buy one, get one free. I got alot of butter! My chocolate topped oatmeal cookies take 12 sticks alone, cause I have to triple the recipe. I like to give out tins to random people like the doorman at my office or the kids crossing guards. Buy a nice tin from the dollar store (shh, they look nice),toss some colored red and green tissue paper in the bottom, fill up with a variety of cookies, throw some Christmas Hershey kisses on top and Voila, a nice little surprise for someone. I love to give at Christmas. It is all about the kids for me. In fact today is our annual family baking day. All the women in the kitchen, the kids decorating. The only thing I hate is the damned cut outs. I do not like rolling pins. I would prefer to cheat and use premade sugar cookie dough. Grandma will not allow that! Paula, I will let ya know which ones we tried today..we all bring one or two new recipes each year. |
Thanks.
I spend a bunch of $$$ for ingredients too. I have finally figured out to buy the basics at a small discount grocery store (we have Aldi's here - it's cheap cuz everything's stacked up on shelves & you bag your own groceries) and look out for coupons for other stuff.
How'd your cookies turn out, kel?
