Sugar Cookies
Peppermint Hot Cocoa Cookies
Chocolate, peppermint and marshmallow come together for a much more portable version of cocoa in these delightfully delicious holiday treats.
Grandma Tibbitts Sugar Cookies
This recipe was handed down from my great grandmother. It took a few years to figure out the exact measures. These cookies are very soft and if you want to use a cutter, the dough should be refrigerated a couple hours. I use a three inch biscuit cutter. You can also drop these if you are short on time. Sprinkle tops with colored sugar or whatever decorative confection you like. These are good plain also.

A cookie coated in graham cracker crumbs making it soft in the inside and hard on the outside.

These are amazing cookies that everyone loves. Oh, are you pregnant or do you not feel well? Well, these cookies have been mentioned by friends and family to make them feel better.
Siri’s Heart Sugar Cookies
This recipe I revised from my grandma’s Christmas angel roll-out cookies. They are sort of cakey, but this can be reduced by omitting half of the cream of tartar, though I prefer them thick and soft. Top with your favorite cream cheese or basic cookie frosting. I find it’s best with almond extract and coconut on top. Enjoy!
Pumpkin Spice Soft Sugar Cookies
If a homemade pumpkin pie and a soft sugar cookie had little cookies of their own, well, let these speak for themselves. Add your favorite seasoned nuts if you wish. I happened to have had some caramelized sugar I had previously made and I crushed this up and added to the top of some of the cookies just before baking.
Gram Opal’s Sugar Cookies
My grandma, Opal June Carlson (Gram C), made these cookies whenever my dad and I came to her cottage on Lake Okoboji for a visit. Although at the time I picked off the pecan halves that my 7-year-old self didn’t yet appreciate, these simply delicious cookies were amazing and will live forever in my heart along with my Gram C!

Roll and cut cookies, a real easy to work with dough. Can be rolled again and again. Makes lots of cookies!
