TONIGHT: THE BAKING BEGINS.
Why is it not snowing yet though, my life is so sad I need snow to bake Christmas cookies properly!
Anyways here are the plans thus far!
- Sugar cookies (new recipe! Because the one I have been using...sucks. I will be making some alterations to this one as well to make them a bit sweeter, also maybe almond extract rather than/in addition to vanilla?)
- Chocolate sugar cookies (same recipe as always because they are tasty and also Tophercrack)
- Shortbread cookies with OUR NEW COOKIE PRESS OH MY GOD I AM SO EXCITED and we are dipping some in chocolate and omggggg
- Stained Glass cookies
- Gingerbread cookies probably?
- SNICKERDOODLES and not-snickerdoodles especially for Topher but I will probably eat a bunch as well
I'm probably forgetting some but anyways tonight I am starting by baking some of
these to test if they can be altered slightly to make good gift jar cookies. Just going to see if the malt can be added at the same time as the other dry ingredients. I suspect it will be fine.
