Photo may be seen here (in Christmas Delight): http://feastyoureyes.smugmug.com/<br/>Terrific cookies. I made them on Dec 22 and I'm pretty darned sure that they aren't going to last till Christmas! They do spread nicely and make lovely crisp counterpart to the fluffy filling. I found that 9 mins baking time gave me the best results. Everyone in the family from the kids to the grandparents will enjoy these lightly spiced and yummy cookies. Thanks so much for this 5 star cookie BK. :D

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend.
Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed.
A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
