"To my way of thinking, most folks love cookies. In the case of holiday cookies, for many it's not just for their splendid taste and texture. Fondness is often linked to memories of warm kitchens and pleasant family times. Baking cookies is old-fashioned holiday fun. Of course, those cookie treasures can be sealed up in zipper-style plastic bags for enjoying at home or given as gifts (I like to keep one or two bags in the freezer for emergency cookie raids)."
"Tillie's Brown Sugar Shortbread Buttons My old friend Tillie loved to prepare these easy-to-make cookies. They look like buttons and are loosely bound together with a holiday ribbon. If making these with children, they may opt to top the cookies with a judicious amount of sprinkles, avoiding the holes that are created with a chopstick. Yield: About 2 dozen INGREDIENTS Nonstick spray"
Holiday cookies often carry sentimental value, linked to warm kitchens and family times, and provide old-fashioned seasonal fun. Cookies can be packaged in zipper-style plastic bags or decorative tins for storage or gifting; freezing extra bags provides quick emergency treats. Cookies vary widely in shape, size, flavor, and texture, including crisp and chewy varieties. Three crisp cookie recipes are presented. One recipe, Tillie's Brown Sugar Shortbread Buttons, yields about two dozen and features butter, brown sugar, and flour. The cookies are flattened, indented with a chopstick to make four holes, and may be decorated with sprinkles when made with children.
