Let's Share Cookie Recipes

I have to start my Christmas cookie baking. I usually make five to seven different batches of cookies every year. I put them in the freezer, buy some decorative plates and I can whip up a wonderful plate of cookies when invited over to friends house during the blessed holiday season. I try one or two new recipes every year, but stick to a few basics also. My husband and boys would strongly protest if I didn’t make my Peanut Butter Cookies, they are the house favorite. And I have to make a double batch, one for the freezer and one for them. A double batch requires muscle with an Eclectrics® Mixer and would be much easier to mix with a Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer. Anything that helps me spend less time in the kitchen makes me happy. And since I’m seeking a stress free holiday season a Hamilton Beach® Mixer can help me in that quest. I can share my Peanut Butter Cookie recipe with you!
