  • Snow ball cookies this recipe is over 100 years ago passed down from generation to generation

    Plus they are also vegeterian no eggs

    one cup butter or margarine
    1/2 cup sifted powder sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3/3 cup finely chopped walnuts

    Mix butter, sugar and vanilla
    sift flour and salt. Blend with mixer.
    Mix in nuts. Roll dough into a big ball and put in refrigerator to chill

    Heat oven to 400 degrees

    Shape rounded teaspoonsfuls of dough into one inch balls. Add a Hershey Kiss in the middle if desired. Place 1 inch apart onto ungreased cookie.
    Bake 10-12 minutesor until they set not brown. While they are still warm, roll in powdered sugar. Let cool and roll again in powdered sugar.

    These cookies are always my favorite. You don't have to add the chocolate if you don't want to. We also used to make these crescent moon shape as well. Always my favorite cookie my Mom made. Actually she lost the recipe when she moved when my Dad died so I was thrilled when I found the recipe. She is going to get some UPS to her.
  • it should be 3/4 cup finey chopped walnuts for the snowball cookies

    i told my family that id make cookies for christmas what kind should i make???? dont really give a damn about healthy for christmas
    There's some really fun cookie cutters called ABC's. Already been chewed... they are 3 stainless steel Gingerbread men cut outs only each one has a bite out of it someplace. :bigsmile: You could do these with a simple sugar cookie recipe and dress them up a bit with frosting in a glad bagged piped to outline them..

    Check around your local fun stores (Spencer gifts etc) or online and you'll find them... they crack me up every time I see them!

    those^ ( i always use about 1 or 2 entire bags of chocolate chips & butterscotch chips for a 13x9 inch glass baking pan) my family LOVES them! be sure to let them sit for a little while before you cut them! think peanutbuttery rice crispy treats with a layer of chocolate and butterscotch!

    ETA - They're called scotcharoos!

    Here's another easy recipe for peanut butter cookies.

    1 cup of sugar
    1 cup peanut butter
    1 egg

    Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients till smooth. Spoon drop batter on cookie sheet. Can mash the tops with fork to make them pretty. Take them out when the edges are brown usually around 7 or 8 minutes. They are gooey and so good! Makes 1 dozen. I dont know the calorie stats on these, sorry.

    I hope these help, Merry Christmas!

    Think it is great you want to help with cookies!! Bake classics...they always make people smile!
    i was thinking about making classic sugar cookies and cutting them into trees and candy canes and other christmasy things

    Well, look out Betty Crocker!! :wink:
    Can't go wrong with good 'ol sugar cookies!! If you have nieces, cousins (or kids of any age, for that matter), bake out the cookies ahead of time & have them help you decorate them with icing & sprinkles! I started this with my nieces a few years ago & it's so much fun. They make tons of different sprinkle colors, shapes, designs & the kids have a blast!
