Spicy chocolate gingerbread men will make your cookie tray stand out this year, and they make great gifts, too.
Cut Out Cookies
Granny’s Filled Cookies
My granny always made these around Christmas. They are the easiest, best tasting cookies around. Be warned, they are addictive.
Swedish Rye Cookies
This cookie has been hung on the family Christmas tree for generations. Guests take a treat from the tree and sit down for a cup of cheer. The first request from family members who cannot be home for Christmas is that we send a box of these as soon as possible.
Pepparkakor I
A traditional Swedish Christmas recipe, they are crispy, brown, and delicious plain or decorated. Different from your everyday gingersnap!
Cranberry Cornmeal Linzer Cookies
Having lived in Wisconsin all my life, I have come to love the different products produced here. This recipe combines two Wisconsin favorites: cranberries and cornmeal. These deliciously different cookies with their tangy cranberry filling are hard to resist!
Refrigerator Cookies II
Melts in your mouth – a rich cookie! Dough may be kept in refrigerator as long as 1 week, freeze dough for longer storage.
Kruschicki
This recipe is from my grandmother: the secret is to roll the dough thin for a light, crisp cookie. Polish bow tie cookies.
Grandmom’s Sand Tarts
My Grandmother didn’t have much money. She was widowed young and she had seven children, so at Christmas she would make these cookies and give each family a box. These cookies are a very fond memory for me. I now make them for my Grandchildren.
Snowflake Cookies
This is my mom’s Christmas cookie recipe that the kids and I have made for years. Great fun to make and decorate.
Pinwheel Cookies I
These cookies are mixed, wrapped in wax paper, chilled, sliced and then baked. My grandmother and my mother both made these and now I make them for my family.
