Thanks, DawnNYS! What are your favorite cookies to make around the holidays?

Hi everybody!

I wanted to introduce myself. I'm from sunny California and I love food, baking, and reading. I like spicy things, but have a major soft spot for sweets! smileys/smile.gif

Easy and good ones are lime meltaways, snickerdoodles, molasses drop

cookies, and spritz (well those aren't easy, but they're very good and worth the effort). I think I've posted them here before, but if you need recipes I can post them again.

It's a great group... lots of info and heart.
