Rosettes- I have an iron I bought in a Swedish shop in Leavenworth, and they are the best cookies ever. Take forever to make, but they are soooo good!

Let me know when you're making them, so I can come over. (They are SOOO good when they're fresh out of the oil!)

One year I went TOTALLY overboard on cookies -- I think I made 5 or 6 kinds. The favorite from that year were chocolate mint press cookies, dusted with powdered sugar.

Yum! I fail completely at press cookies. All my cookies look like some weird mutants.

I THINK the trick might be to use a specific press cookie recipe, or else one that doesn't 'puff' too much. Same thing happens to me when I use Pillsbury dough and cookie cutters with 'designs' in the middle (that you have to roll to EXACTLY the right depth) -- they always puff so much you can't tell what the shape is.

(If I was better at my baking chemistry, I'd tell you what ratio of ingredients puff more/less, but no such luck here)

Oh, and I always go for the most basic shapes - either the rings or trees!

Would someone be willing to share a buckeye recipe with me. Please! My friend from Ohio brought me some one year and they were divine!

I always make rum or bourbon balls, chocolate crinkles, Russian teacakes, fudge, sugar cookies, party mix(not a cookie but husbands family tradition), lemon bars, magic cookie bars and chocolate chip of course!

This year I'm making Pfeffernusse(pepper nut) cookies for my 86 year old neighbor. He is so excited, he hasn't had them since he was a child. I just hope I can do as good as he remembers, I haven't made them for many years but I'm willing to try!
