Virtual Cookie Exchange Blog Hop with Marney

I am so excited to be part of the 2019 Virtual Cookie Exchange and Blog Hop hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt. I hope you will visit the other bloggers and enjoy their many yummy cookie recipes.

I am a paper piece pattern designer from Wisconsin, and I LOVE to create holiday patterns. Last Christmas I designed this HOLIDAY BUDDIES table topper .

HOLIDAY BUDDIES TABLE TOPPER

I love the Caroler, and thought he needed a caroling partner.

This is my CAROLING DOGGIE.

These CAROLING BUDDIES would make an adorable set of holiday potholders.

Let’s make some cute as can be Christmas cut out cookies to match my new potholders. My cookie recipe collection has been growing over the years. Some of my favorite Christmas cookie recipes were shared by friends and co-workers. The recipe I am sharing with you is for Christmas cut-out cookies and was shared by my secretary at school, Marge. I have always loved these cut outs, and they work especially well for thicker cut outs, which are my favorites! You can click on the title of the cookie to get a downloadable PDF version for your recipe files.

Marge’s Sugar Cookies

  • 1 1/2 cups sifted confectioners sugar
  • 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp almond flavoring
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cream of tartar

Mix sugar and butter. Add egg and flavorings, mix thoroughly. Stir dry ingredients together and blend in. Refrigerate 2 hours (I cheat here).

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Divide dough into “manageable” amount to roll on lightly floured surface.

Cut with cookie cutters. Place on lightly greased cookie sheets.

Bake7-8 minutes.

Cool and frost with your favorite frosting. I am going to cheat and buy some canned vanilla frosting.
