I loved these cookies. I made them yesterday and they are already gone. My kids had fun making them with the cookie press. One thing I learned though, if you're using decorative sprinkles put them on after the cookies come out of the oven or they will burn. -
These are so good and easy to work with. I split it in 3 parts and added red and green food color for variety. So yummy they melt in your mouth! -
These are the best things I've ever tasted. I am Swedish and I always cook them around Christmas time. I had originally had a different recipe (I'm pretty sure it was the same type of cookie) but this one was so much better. I LOVE THESE SO MUCH!!!!!!

I am retired and enjoy cooking for family and friends. Being Swedish, I always have swedish food over Christmas, most of which I prepare myself. My all-time favorite cookbook is the one that my Grandmother left me with all the old Swedish recipies, some that you can't find any more.
