SPECIAL WISH ON THIS CHRISTMAS DAY
Dear Readers:
I know that most of my readers celebrate the Christmas Season, some may have other traditions that they observe, and even some who do not celebrate at all. However you choose to observe, may you pass on a kindness everyday, without any expectation of receiving anything in return except for a feeling of joy knowing that you have given a smile to the one you have helped. My wish for all of you is to have a moment of peace and love with family and friends, but most of all within your own heart.
Merry Christmas!

SANTA'S 2ND FAVORITE CHRISTMAS COOKIE - PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES RECIPE
PEANUT
BUTTER COOKIES
Here is another of my grandmother's cookie recipes.
This recipe also has to be about 100 years old. After she would bake the
Rocks (see BELOW), she would then bake the peanut butter cookies. The
holidays were the only time she would bake these cookies. Me? I
like to bake them anytime, but I always bake them at Christmas. Just
today, I baked the Rocks, some of which I will give as gifts. Tomorrow is
the Peanut Butter cookies. When baking cookies, use parchment paper on
the cookie sheet. You do not have to place a new sheet for each batch you
bake, just reuse. Parchment paper keeps the cookie sheet clean, just wipe
it off when finished baking.
1
cup shortening
1
cup sugar
1
cup brown sugar
2
eggs
3
cups flour
1
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2
teaspoon salt (I use sea salt - better for you)
1
cup peanut butter (I use natural peanut butter) smooth or crunchy - your option
Cream sugars and shortening. Add well-beaten eggs and
vanilla. Mix together flour, soda, and salt then add to mixture.
Mix. Add peanut butter and mix well. Roll dough into individual
balls about the size of a walnut. I usually 'roll' the whole batch of
dough, while waiting for the first batch of cookies to bake. Place the
balls on the cookie sheet and using a fork that you've dipped in some flour,
press down on the cookie. I usually make a criss-cross pattern.
Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
When I bake these at Christmas, I put red and green
sprinkles on the top.
