What is your favorite holiday cookie?

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Since we have so many cultures and countries represented here I thought it might be interesting to see what type of Christmas cookies we all liked or grew up with as a kid.

So tell me what your favorite Christmas cookie is.

Mine was and still is my Mom's sugar cookies. She would get a glass and take the bottom and get sugar on it and press the cookies out until they were very thin. When she cooked them they would get brown around the edges and a bit crispy just on the edges. That was my favorite part

I used to live in Europe and never quite understood why a cookie was called a biscuit.

We used to get those cookies when I lived in Germany that tasted like liqoruce (sp?) they had the strangest name can't quite remember it but it was something like Pfarfenuess or something like that.

Actually, I like to call all those smallish crunchy cakes as "biscuits" (or "pipari" in finnish)

tia...my favs are similar to yours...

except we'd dip the cup in sugar and then squish the cookie down...

we'd use cookie cutters...angels...xmas trees, stars and bells. *swooons*.

umm..and yes the edges were crunchy...

my bfs aunt makes sugar cookies...but they taste more like butter coiokies cuz they aren't that sweet..you know what I mean...

I dont like those...I like the stuff that rots your teeth.
