ready for the cookie exchange: our favorite cookie recipes ever
I like to wait until last week before Christmas to make cookies for the holidays. I have a few that I insist on making, like pizzelles, and always throw in a new recipe just for kicks. Here’s a round up of some of the ones that I use again and again.
Aunt Jean’s famous Pizzelle cookies – time to dust off the waffle pan!
Wendy Gaynor’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe – still the best ever!
Oatmeal Maple Cream cookies — a new kind of sandwich via my neighbor Jane
Salty Sweet Peanut Butter Cookies — just typing their name makes me crave them
Gingerbread Men — a favorite of Santa’s, I hear
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Buckeyes — my husband hails from Ohio, where these are a tradition
