Answer 1

I have 2 suggestions:

1. is a peanut butter blossom (peanut butter cookie with the kiss pressed in the middle) -- see recipe below

2. not really a cookie, but EASY: pretzel rods dipped in chocolate and then sprinkles. OR small pretzels topped with one caramel kiss each (place in oven at 275 for about 8 min to soften). When you take out gently press a pecan half onto the kiss. MMMMM - its a "turtle" treat

Answer 2

I'm sorry to say this, but the best Christmas COOKIES are the ones you get at the store, and you peel the cookies out of the dough. Those are DELICIOUS, but I forgot the brand, so that doesn't really help you. The best Christmas TREATS are called Peppermint Bark. Here's what you need: 3 Bags of White Chocolate (Tiny bags, the ones that are two-thirds of a foot long) 12 Candy Canes About 3 cookie trays It needs to be winter, or you need a REALLY big freezer Instructions: 1. Put the candy canes in a bag and crush them, not to powder, but to tiny chunks. 2. Melt the white chocolate in a bowl (Microwave or oven or stove, however you do it) 3. Mix the peppermint chunks into the melted chocolate. 4. Put the mixture onto the tray (with plastic paper on it) 5. Spread it around until it fills the tray 6. Repeat until all chocolate is on a tray 7. Put the Peppermint Bark outside to freeze, or, put them in your freezer for 10-15 minutes. Enjoy!

This one is one of mine. Some say it is a cookie and some say that it is candy.

Corn Flake Candy

1 2/3 cup Corn Syrup
1 2/3 cup sugar
Boil until sugar is melted, remove from heat, then add
1 2/3 tablespoon vanilla
2 1/2 cup peanut butter
* * *
10 cups Corn flakes

In a big pan that is coated with butter, put in 10 cups Corn Flakes.
Pour the above mixture over the Corn Flakes and stir with a large spoon that is coated with butter. I have even coated my hands with butter for the last of them to be put on wax paper so not to burn my hands as it is still very hot.
Stir until Corn Flakes are covered. Spoon out on wax paper and let cool.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMDev

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 7

I use the sugar cookie dough from Pillsbury and slice the cookies as directed.

After they have dried, I use green icing from the can (cake icing, I believe). I use the tip for leaves or for scallops. I ice all around the cookie to make a wreath. I add Cinnamon drops to make berries for the wreath.

We call these "wreath cookies" and, they are a family favorite.
100% sugar and they are worth it! :)

They aren't a lot of trouble to make. It doesn't take long to decorate and they look cute.
