These are the perfect basic cookies for decorating. If you like, reduce the vanilla to 1/2 teaspoon and add 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract. To decorate, use our Royal Icing recipe.

Earl Grey Tea Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:26-05:00

If you like, experiment with different types of tea. Jasmine tea would make a lovely variation.

Maple Leaf Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:23-05:00

The small amount of baking soda in these cookies gives them a little lift, but not so much that they lose their shape. Be sure not to over bake these cookies; they are delicious when they're a bit chewy.

Zesty Lime Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:18-05:00

You will need 2 limes for the cookies and icing, be sure to zest them before juicing them. If you are using the icing to pipe decorations on the cookies, rather than simply frosting them, be sure to strain the pulp from the lime juice.

Buckwheat Honey Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:17-05:00

For a bold honey flavor, use buckwheat honey in this recipe.

Mocha Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:15-05:00

If you chill the dough for longer than an hour, you may need to let it soften on the counter before rolling it out. These cookies are also good cut small and dusted lightly with coarse sea salt before baking.

European Chocolate Butter Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:15-05:00

These cookies have a substantial, but not over the top, chocolate flavor. You can, of course, use regular butter in these, but they will be slightly less crisp and flavorful.

Pumpkin Spice Halloween Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:10-05:00

Our quick, no-chill sugar cookie recipe gets a dash of Halloween spice with cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and pumpkin spice extract (McCormick, Rodelle, and Watkins all make good pumpkin extracts). Decorate with pumpkin-spice flavored Royal icing for cookies so good, it's scary!

Eggnog Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:07-05:00

Eggnog cookies are Holiday baking tradition at our house. Egg, Rum Flavoring and Nutmeg give these sugar cookies that festive eggnog flavor. Nutmeg is widely available ground, but it's also fun and satisfying to buy it whole and grate it with a rasp style grater for a stronger, fresher taste.

Peanut Butter Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:05-05:00

One 16-ounce jar of peanut butter provides enough for both the cookies and the icing, for this reason, I prefer to use smooth peanut butter. If you like peanut chunks in your cookies, including the optional dry-roasted peanuts, be sure to process them to very small crumbs otherwise the dough will be difficult to roll out

Cornmeal Cookies

2023-12-15T13:12:01-05:00

Be sure to use finely ground cornmeal only. Medium or coarsely ground cornmeal will make the cookies gritty.

Chocolate Cherry Cookies

2023-12-15T13:11:58-05:00

You can leave out the cherries if desired, although the yield will be slightly smaller. For the best soft texture, be sure not to over bake these cookies; they are done when the tops look completely dry.

Maple Walnut Cookies

2023-12-15T13:11:57-05:00

Maple sugar is a finely granulated, slightly powdery sugar; it's usually sold with the other maple products or in the specialty foods section of the supermarket. For cooking, I prefer to use Grade B maple syrup because it has a stronger maple flavor than other grades.

Valentine's Cayenne Pepper Chocolate Cookies

2023-12-15T13:11:55-05:00

The cayenne pepper and black pepper give a gentle sensation of heat to these chocolate cookies. Be sure not to over bake the cookies; they should be slightly soft inside.

Sugar and Spice Cookies

2023-12-15T13:11:50-05:00

Freshly grated nutmeg tastes best here (and everywhere). You can purchase a single nutmeg in the bulk spice isle at most natural food stores and they last indefinitely. Grate the nutmeg into a small bowl with a rasp style greater or over the smallest holes of a box grater, then measure.

Spelt Almond Cookies

2023-12-15T13:11:49-05:00

Spelt flour gives you the benefit of whole grains with a milder, sweeter flavor than whole wheat. For the best textured cookies, it's important to let the dough rest in the refrigerator for a few hours, but the dough is easier to roll out if you let it warm up slightly, for a half hour or so.
