I've been meaning to make more Christmas cookies. About a week and a half ago, we hosted a Christmas party and I made my favorite Christmas cookies, Russian teacakes. This is how they looked when they came out. I think I laughed out loud. This had never happened to me before, but then I have never let the cookies sit on the counter for 20+ minutes before baking them. I suppose the butter had warmed up too much to hold them in their circular form. Needless to say, these cookies went "right in the garbage". Thankfully it only takes a few minutes to whip up another batch and I was able to make some more. But they are gone now. Can we have Christmas next week, so I have time to make more cookies first?
I plan on Christmas baking next week :). Really, what we need is two surprise days we didn't know we'd get right before Christmas. If we knew we'd get them we'd make plans instead of cookies.
ReplyDeleteI see they stayed on the cookie sheet. That's a plus.
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny laughing out loud. :)
Sheri, if they weren't so dangerous, I'd be baking Christmas cookies all through December and into New Years.
Oopsie! I was looking at the picture before I read your post, and I was trying to figure out what kind of cookies those were supposed to be. I never would've guessed Russian Tea Cakes...haha!
