(Strange, but I do like making my dogs homemade cut-out biscuits...that dough's easier to work with!)<BR/><BR/>I remember seeing some woman on one of the cooking shows years ago, who did cut out cookies and used royal icing. Her cookies were works of art, really beautiful! And she made it look so easy...just can't think of her name right now. I'll probably try some cutouts this year - my 3 year old will enjoy it! <BR/><BR/>My favorite simple cookies are the ones that you roll into balls and either roll in sugar for the crackle effect or flatten with a glass. And of course, my chocolate Italian Spice Cookies (see my blog today and the recipe at Grouprecipes!)ChristineMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02851502547567088841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424347085268921925.post-60297178445352696422008-12-16T16:31:00.000-05:002008-12-16T16:31:00.000-05:00Thanks LB...but 7 1/2 hours?

I'm happy, though, that they looked pretty. I've got a box of them mailed off to the Seminarian we "adopted" and another box ready for the next door neighbor. About 10 cookies bit the dust during my icing troubles and I have only about a dozen leftover for the family, and Santa, to enjoy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01169693305157071792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424347085268921925.post-67021611158501719172008-12-16T13:44:00.000-05:002008-12-16T13:44:00.000-05:00Check you out - that is fantastic!

I'm going to try my hand with some cookies soon and if they turn out half as wonderful as yours do I'll be happy.L.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03932409909043501781noreply@blogger.com
