First on the list is Linzer cookies! THEY WERE SO HARD TO MAKE OMG. Do you know how hard it is to roll dough a uniform width? Really. Really. HARD.
(recipe)
Fucking difficult ass cookiesNext up were my holiday favorite Chocolate-Mint cookies, made with Andes mints
Chocolate Mint cookies
1 box of Andes green mints (cut into halves)
¾ cup butter
1 ½ cup dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp water
2 cups (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 eggs
2 ½ cups flour
1 ¼ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
Chocolate sprinkles
1. In a heavy saucepan, melt butter then add brown sugar & water. Add chocolate chips and stir until partially melted. Remove from heat and continue stirring until chocolate pieces are completely melted. Pour into large mixing bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.
2. With mixer at high speed, beat in eggs one at a time. Reduce speed to low and add dry ingredients until blended.
3. Chill dough about 2 hours.
4. Preheat oven to 350 F and line cookie sheets with foil. Roll Tbsps of dough into balls and separate by about 2” on sheet. Bake 12-13 minutes.
5. Remove from oven and immediately place Andes mint on each hot cookie, then swirl the mint when melted. Decorate with sprinkles and allow to cool (but don’t stack the while cooling, they will fuse together)

Everywhere you look, delicious cookies!
Yeah. I made these.Kolacki
2 sticks of butter
8oz cream cheese
2 cups flour
apricot, prune, blackberry, etc filling. (strawberry and grape not recommended)
1. Mix all ingredients like pie dough and form into ball. Refrigerate overnight.
2. Roll out on floured board, cut into desired shapes (I used a heart-shaped cookie cutter for the ones below, but squares and circles can be used too). Add 1 teaspoon (tablespoon if your cut-out are larger) of filling and fold cookie up.
3. Bake at 400 F for 10-12 minutes or until light brown.
4. Remove from over and allow to cool. When cool, dust with powdered sugar.
Pastry goodness, like buttah in yer mouth. Probably has something to do with the 2 sticks of butter...Happy Holidays, etc
