Ahhh…One of my favorite yearly activites – baking Christmas Cookies. I dust off my almond-tone KitchenAid Stand Mixer (the greatest device I own) and flex my baking muscle (that is a joke). This year, my daughter helped out with cracking two eggs (which she is so unbelievably good at – bumps them on the kitchen island’s flat surface and seperates over the bowl – unreal) and with spooning the finished batter on to the sheets. I use a recipe that is a modified and, frankly, perfected (thanks mom!) adaption of the one printed on the back of the Nestle semi-sweet morsel package. Delicious!
For the 2nd year in a row, the Mrs. and the little one each ate a still warm cookie, with a glass of cold milk, while laying under the Christmas Tree.
Yum!
