Christmas cookies!
I was off this afternoon, and decided to help out my wife by starting the first batch of cookies for the season. We have a series of recipes from my paternal grandmother, and my wife also makes chocolate chip cookies. For the latter she (confessions) just goes with the recipe on the back of the Hershey's semi-sweet chocolate chips (generous on the usage of the chips). Nothing complicated, but great. And I could live off the dough.
As for the rest, see below. She'll definitely be making the first two. My mom offered to make a batch of the third. I happened across the fourth while looking for the first, and I probably haven't had them since Christmas 2003 (my grandma passed away the following Spring).
Peanut blossoms:
1/2 LB Hershey kisses
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 Tbl milk
1 tsp vanilla
1.5 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
granulated sugar
Heat over to 375
Beat shortening and peanut butter until well blended.
Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar, beat until light and fluffy.
Add egg, milk and vanilla and beat well.
Sift together flour, salt and soda and slowly beat into the rest.
Shape into 1 inch balls, roll in granulated sugar and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8-10 minutes, or unitl lightly browned.
Remove from the heat and push a (disrobed) Hershey kiss in the center.
Buckeye Balls:
1 LB melted butter
3 LB powdered sugar
1 LB (or just a little less) peanut butter (plain or chunky)
1.5 LB semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted)
Mix sugar and butter well, until sugar can no longer be seen. Add peanut butter, mix by hand. Roll into balls, a little less than an inch, and place on cookie sheets covered with wax paper (you can stack in layers with more paper in between). Put them in the fridge until firm. Dip the firm balls in the melted chocolate, put back on the wax paper, and back in the fridge.
We usually halve that one.
Toll House Cupcakes:
CUPCAKE:
1/2 cup soft butter
6 Tbl granulated sugar
6 tbl brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 cup flour (plus 2 Tbl)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Heat oven to 375.
Combine butter, sugars and vanilla and beat until creamy. Beat in egg.
Sift the flour, salt and soda together, then slowly add to the rest.
Spoon rounded Tbl into paper lined cupcake cups. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Remove from the oven.
TOPPING:
(make sure this is ready to go when the cupcakes come out the first time)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp salt
6 oz chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional, but not really)
1/2 tsp vanilla
Combine sugar, egg and salt and beat well. Stir in chips, nuts and vanilla. Spoon 1 Tbl into each cupcake.
Return cupcakes to oven for 15 additional minutes.
Lady Locks:
3.5 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 Tbl sugar
1 cup shortening (1/2 margarine, 1/2 crisco)
2 tsp butter
2 egg yolks
1 cup evaporated milk
2 tsp vanilla
1 package active dry yeast
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup powdered sugar
Sift together flour, baking powder and sugars. Add shortening and butter, and cut them together as if making a pie crust.
Combine egg yolks, evaporated milk, vanilla and yeast. Add to the flour mixture and mix well. Chill overnight.
Heat over to 325.
Work with small pieces of dough, rolling them out on a board covered with a mixtre of 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 cup powdered sugar. Roll thin, then cut into 5 or 6 inch long strips, about 1/2 inch wide. Wrap around foil (lightly greased) covered wooden clothes pins, and bake 10-15 minutes. Remove (carefully) from pins immediately, and fill (see below).
Filling:
2 cups milk
4 rounded Tbl flour
1 cup softened margarine
1/2 cup crisco
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla
dash of salt
Combine milk and flour. Cook on low heat until thickened, then cool completely.
Beat mixture with an electric mixture, then add all other ingredients and mix until light and fluffy.
Fill shells with the mixture using a pastry bag.
So, what you got?

Thanks. I had to scroll up to make sure I didn't spell "cookies" wrong.

My mom used to yammer at me because I insisted on real butter and real vanilla extract. Even (especially) after I quit drinking--the vanilla has alcohol. My one continuing alcohol indulgence (I use it to flavor my greek yogurt--whereas it isn't cooked off. Confession.)
Love my Toll House cookies. That's all I got.

Re: Christmas cookies!
We got my mom some upscale vanilla for Christmas, and reading the label I was surprised at the alcohol content. I knew vanilla had alcohol, just not that much.
I suppose pride can only help keep you from falling off the wagon for the sake of yogurt toppings.

It came from the Bourbon Island, what did you expect?
Fantastic call Cerrano, that pic is awesome.
Howard, I was wondering about the etiqtette of cooking with booze for a large group. I put a small amount of scotch in my broccoli and brought it to an office pot luck. I thought maybe it wasn't a good idea, because I don't know these people well enough to know if any of them are on the wagon. At the risk of sounding completely ignorant, could that cause a problem for an alcoholic? The sauce is cooked in a wok at a high temp, but I doubt it all burns off.

Re: Christmas cookies!
We make sugar cookies, fudge, special k bars (like crack. it's the corn syrup), sand tarts, shortbreads, mint meltaways, dipped oreos and I'll probably make some peanut butter freezer fudge soon.
Yeah, it's stupid. But they're all so, so so good.

Re: Christmas cookies!
syb, as far as etiquette, I'm not quite Emily Post. I would offer a disclaimer--just let folks know, with an announcement and/or a label, and then people can choose to eat it or not.
Alcohol is pretty volatile, iow it cooks off very quickly and easily. You can still have plenty of scotch flavoring and still be comfortably sure the alcohol is all gone.
As a big broccoli eater, and a former scotch lover, that sounds delish. Gotta try that sometime; I'll call you to dispose of the extra cheap scotch. Little danger of relapse on that count; even as a drunk, I was too high and mighty to drink anything lower than red label. Just the thought of Dewars or JB makes me retch.

Funny, I had a fifth of Dewars which was used solely for cooking. Now that I am almost out of my Chivas, I don't know what I will cook with. I can't waste my Talisker's in broccoli! Lets get a Swamp potluck on the calendar!

Re: Christmas cookies!
Good timing. Just finished making mint meltaway cookies (chocolate cookies with creme de menthe and an Andes on top). It's insane how much stuff we have at my parents' house.rass wrote:Bump!

Doubled a recipe aiming for 40 cookies (original recipe just said roll into balls and aim for 20) and hit 39 so I’m pretty fucking impressed with myself.

Re: Christmas cookies!
Since you got one less than you desired, it's safe to say you took down the cookie.
My gall is sufficiently mitigated. Thank you for your concern.

Bout to make some balls. Might save the dipping for my wife.

I noticed that but figured if no one pointed it out maybe we could all ignore it.

Re: Christmas cookies!
We just call them Buckeyes. Our kid made some for Girl Scouts in early November (a recipe for a food from somewhere else and apparently, Ohio counts). Made me very annoyed that the Reese's cups from Halloween were hanging around.rass wrote: ↑Sat Dec 18, 2021 7:39 pmHells yesrass wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2013 5:04 pm Buckeye Balls:

Re: Christmas cookies!
The wife and kids spent most of the day yesterday making cookies, while I unfortunately had to catch up on work so I don't have to work next weekend. So I had nothing to do with it, but the containers are packed with butter beer cookies, Russian tea cakes and Puerto Rican coconut kisses.
How do you all get your death notices since I left?
Re: Christmas cookies!
I want the ones in the bottom left.
(Its also weird to see those three together. My family was/is so chocolate-centric that if there are 3 varieties, the O/U is 2.5 for containing chocolate.)

Totally fucked these up yesterday, way overcooked/baked. Only thing I can figure is that I made them a bit too small. Sad!rass wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2013 5:04 pm Toll House Cupcakes:

Re: Christmas cookies!
Went to a friend's house last night and watched them make pizzelles. Because Italians.
And then I taught them how to pronounce the word properly. Because I'm pedantic.
They came out delicious.

Re: Christmas cookies!
Our son took my wife's family pizzelle recipe (along with an old pizzelle iron, a photo her new electric iron, etc.) to school for his presentation in the class's culture fair last month, including copies to hand out. One of the copies went to a kid whose mother owns a bakery in town. She is now no longer looking for a recipe for the pizzelles used in the bakery's cannolis (she holds the anise oil).
