Default What kind of a cookie day is it?

I have a craving to make something homey and spicey and nicey...

Lessee, what's in my repertoire?

Ultrabite ultra pukes...

Dead birds in a nest...

No, seriously... Do Snickerdoodles sound good?

Me thinks so.

What is your vote? Come on, it's a cookie day.

I'll never forget as a child, getting in trouble for stirring food counter clock wise.
My Mother insisted you had to stir clock wise.

Can you believe that?

I got in trouble for it!!!

What the??? She was serious!

I still do it though! I can't stir backwards now, for all of my life!

Peanutbutter cookies, they have to be squished with a fork before you bake them.....................they just don't taste the same if you don't squish them.

My kids made chocolate chip cookies a few days ago. I don't think they got them quite right, though..... I guess I better have them try again! :grin: Luckily, our cat does not hunt.

Jennie, my Mom taught me the same thing, everything had to be stirred clockwise or she would throw it out and make me start over. I sure do miss her Christmas cookies. I'd tell you what they were, but I can't even begin to spell it.

<font size="2" face="verdana,arial,helvetica">I stir counter clockwise. Not to be a rebel or anything. I stir counter clock wise because I am left handed. Sometimes you will hit a tough bit to stir and it seems like you get less jumping out of the bowl when you stir clockwise for a right-hander and counter clockwise for a left-hander.


Have you tried Poppy Seed Pinwheels
Makes 2 dozen

1/2 c white sugar
1/2 c butter
1 3/4 c all-purpose flour
1/2 t vanilla extract
1/4 t salt
1 egg
1/2 c poppy seeds
1/2 c ground walnuts
1/4 c honey
1/4 t ground cinnamon
3/4 t orange zest
4 T butter

Directions
In a large bowl, beat sugar and 1/2 c butter with mixer at high speed until light and fluffy. Add flour, vanilla, salt, and egg; beat on low speed until blended, occasionally scraping bowl.

Shape dough into ball. Wrap and refrigerate 1 hour, until firm enough to handle.

To Make Filling: Stir remaining ingredients and 4 T butter untl mixed. Set aside.

On waxed paper, roll half of dough into 10 by 8 inch rectangle. Spread dough with half of the poppy seed mixture. Starting at narrow side, roll jelly-roll fashion. Wrap and refrigerate 1 hour, until firm. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Slice one roll cross-wise into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place 1/2 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool on wire rack and repeat with remaining dough.

pdxkevin, I'm left handed too, but Mom thought that was a bad thing and made me do everything right handed. Now I'm just confused [img]graemlins/1zhelp.gif[/img]
