Swedish Christmas Cookies From Food Network Kitchens























2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour


2 teaspoons ground cardamom


1/4 teaspoon fine salt


1 cup unsalted butter, (2 sticks), at room temperature


1 cup confectioners' sugar


1 large egg, room temperature


1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract


1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest


Colored sanding sugars or chopped toasted pecans





Whisk the flour, cardamom, and salt in a bowl.


Put the butter and confectioners' sugar in a food processor, and process until smooth. Pulse in the egg, vanilla, and lemon zest until combined. Add the flour mixture and process to make a soft buttery dough. Divide dough in half onto 2 (12-inch long) sheets of plastic wrap, using the plastic, shape into rough logs. Refrigerate the dough logs for 30 minutes until just firm enough to shape into uniform logs, 8-inches long by 2-inches in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.





Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.





Scatter either the sanding sugars or toasted nuts on a work surface and roll the logs until completely coated. Cut into 1/4-inch thick cookies and space about 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until golden around the edges, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool cookies on the pan on wire racks. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.





these are also yummy!


ANISE CHRISTMAS COOKIES





5 large eggs, well beaten


1 lb. box of powdered sugar


1 teaspoon anise OIL (It is much better to use the oil)


1 teaspoon baking powder


about 5 cups flour





Beat eggs till very frothy. Add powdered sugar a bit at a time, until all sugar is used.





Add anise oil and baking powder. Slowly add the flour to the mixture. When it gets too stiff for beaters, I continue the rest by hand.





When dough has lost most of the stickiness, roll out on a floured board to about 3/8-inch thick. Then cut out into shapes. I use my Grandma Jed's old wood cookie cutter. Place all cookies on a clean sheet on a table to set all night.





The next morning, bake on a ungreased cookie sheet for about 12 minutes in a 325 degree oven. They should be just starting to brown. Keep cookies in a tightly sealed Tupperware with a piece bread included to keep them soft.Does anyone have any unique cookie recipes to use for the holidays?

What Are Some Good Horse Cookie Recipes?

My horse is allergic to oats and molasses so anything that doesn't use these as ingredients.What Are Some Good Horse Cookie Recipes?
Easy no cook snaps





4 Cups of bran


4 Cups of applesauce





Directions: Mix ingredients together. Batter should be doughy. Roll out with rolling pin, cut shapes with cookie cutter. Let dough dry and serve.

What can you do if your cookie mix is too liquidy? Can you use cookie recipes and turn them into cakes?

No, you cannot turn a cookie batter into cakes. The proportion %26amp; type of leavening is completely different.





However, most cookie batters do not contain liquid other than eggs. What is it you are doing to get a mix that is too liquid? If you are not doing anything unusual and are measuring your flour correctly, then you need to refrigerate the dough for a couple of hours.





Don't try to add extra flour or, worse, knead the dough. Extra flour and over-handling will make your cookies as dry and tough as old shoe leather!What can you do if your cookie mix is too liquidy? Can you use cookie recipes and turn them into cakes?
If you are sure you are measuring the ingredients correctly, maybe you are over mixing the dough. In which case, it is unusable. You can not turn cookie recipes into cakes.What can you do if your cookie mix is too liquidy? Can you use cookie recipes and turn them into cakes?
It would be too hard for a cake. Continue kneading, adding more flour until it feels spongy and does not stick to your fingers.
Start over...
Start over, or just add more flour. A little at a time, you can add more,but you can't take away.

What are the names of some simple (not cutout) Christmas cookie recipes?

I'm giving Christmas cookies out to a group of 500 people who are typically ignored and forgotten. Last year, I was only able to make 100, but my goal this year is 500. Therefore, cutout cookies are out of the picture. It may be best to modify a drop cookie recipe and just sprinkle red and/or green sprinkles on top. Does anyone have any rather quick and not too expensive Christmas cookie ideas? What are the names of some simple (not cutout) Christmas cookie recipes?
Peppermint Meringues


yield: app. 48 cookies








2 egg whites


1/8 teaspoon salt


1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar


1/2 cup white sugar


2 peppermint candy canes, crushed





DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with foil.


In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar to soft peaks. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until whites form stiff peaks. Drop by spoonfuls 1 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Sprinkle crushed peppermint candy over the cookies.


Bake for 1 1/2 hours in preheated oven. Meringues should be completely dry on the inside. Do not allow them to brown. Turn off oven. Keep oven door ajar, and let meringues sit in the oven until completely cool. Loosen from foil with metal spatula. Store loosely covered in cool dry place for up to 2 months.

Investigate getting one of those kits that has the ';gun'; looking thing (can't think of what it's called) that you fill with the dough/batter and you can shoot the cookies out quickly on a cookie sheet. I know they have them at Hobby Lobby and Michael's and you would be able to make a lot of cookies fast. It should give recipes for different doughs that would work in the press. (that's it, it's a cookie press!!) and then you could put sprinkles, flavored extracts, or color the dough even. Good Luck!!!

Anyone have delicious sugar-free cookie recipes?

I'm making cookies for friends and family holiday gifts this year, and my little brother is diabetic. Every sugar-free cookie recipe I have tried is gross, and everytime I sub Splenda for sugar, it tastes wierd to me. Any suggestions?Anyone have delicious sugar-free cookie recipes?
No, that is actually an oxymoron, ';delicious sugar-free cookies';. If they were so delicious without sugar, don't you think the sugarfree type would be mainstream and the cavity mongers wouldn't rule the roost?Anyone have delicious sugar-free cookie recipes?
I use splenda instead of sugar on these and they taste great :

http://www.recipesforvegans.co.uk/spicyb鈥?/a>
Spice cookies work best- the taste of the spices is enough to hide that there isn't sugar. If you try to substitute something else for the sugar taste- it is nasty- LOL- you have tried, I see.





Well go for this, hope you like it. (If you like ginger snaps, you will...)
