Martha’s Cookies

Cookies

Things have been quiet around here since I’ve been on break from school. Later this month, I’ll be starting Pastry I and Baking II, and hopefully I’ll have some things to share with you.

I took these cookies over to my parents’ house this week for my dad’s 59th birthday. The chocolate ones are ‘Grammie’s Cookies’ from Martha Stewart’s Cookies, and were very popular with my husband. I replaced the vanilla with chocolate extract for an extra-chocolatey boost.

The others are ‘Icebox Butter Cookies’ from Martha Stewart’s Baking Handbook. They taste just like the Danish cookies we’d get in a tin every Christmas, and are super-easy to throw together and keep on hand in the freezer. I’ve made them several times now, and want to try adding nuts or herbs to the mix soon.
