👩‍🍳What are the three guidelines to follow when baking cookies?

• Use measuring cups and spoons to accurately measure ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, and leavening agents. Too much or too little of any ingredient can affect the texture and taste of your cookies. I know the grandkids will love this Santa set of measuring spoons!
• It's important to follow the recipe instructions carefully. Pay attention to details such as mixing times, oven temperature, and order of adding ingredients.
• Avoid overmixing the dough as it can lead to tough cookies. Mix until the ingredients are just combined. Also, if a cookie recipe states that the dough should be chilled before baking, you really should chill the dough. It helps solidify the butter in the dough, resulting in cookies that spread less and have a better texture.

🥣Christmas Baking Memories

What are your favorite memories of Christmas baking?  Growing up my mom went all out baking cookies. 

My sister and I loved helping her prepare the cookies, which she would proudly display on a beautiful crystal dish. Every year, she would have it all set up, ready for guests to drop by during the joyful holiday season.

We always had guests ringing our doorbell, eager to visit! They would sit in our living room, enjoying the cookies and a cup of eggnog with my parents. Christmas was such a special and enchanting time for me as a child!
