Thanks for the recipe sister! Tried this one out for the holidays and it turned out well. My son couldn’t stop eating it. Made me regret doing only half a recipe. hahaha.

Use a timer, set at 10 min. so you can check the cookies before they burn. Or, chill the cut cookies on the sheets in the fridge and bake them consecutively after all the shapes are cut out. I’m glad you enjoyed making them and hope you have a Merry Christmas!

whit, just divide everything by half, simple math, you should be okay. Number of cookies depend on size made.If you’re only going to make half a recipe don’t bother, go buy some cookies.

marketman, 50+++ cookies are way too much for me. can you (or Sister) provide measurements if i only want to bake half of the quantity of the orig recipe? i know baking is an exact science and i dont want just to halve everything – baka magkamali pa, yikes! Salamat! :)

Betty Q- my kitchen is painted tomato soup red. Different shades actually, depending on the year and the last paint job.

Here is another information overload for you Jun…also Chinachix…anything that comes fromyour kitchen just like Sister’s Kitchen…(Sister, what color is your kitchen…just a thought..wouldn’t it be neat if your kitchen is kknown as say THE PURPLE TURQUOISE KITCHEN!!!)…anyway, as I was saying people look forward to! So, in this light, i start my cookie baking First week of December!…these will be the ones that will be mailed…so I use salted butter …salt acts as a preservative as well without using those things I cannot spell off the top of my head at this very moment!

chinachix, You can use salted butter. I only recommend unsalted because generally it is fresher because of a shorter shelf life and it is the butter of choice of most pastry chefs.The additional salt is very minimal.
