Oh, I love looking at everyone's cookies! Nice job, everyone, especially you, Guts - VERY good decorating skills! Thanks so much for sharing your pics with us, everyone.

I've been baking for a few days and still don't have all the cookies made, but we needed to take a plate to friends tonight, where we are invited for dinner.

From the top, clockwise, are hazelnut cookies (made with Nutella), cranberry bars, double chocolate espresso cookies, sugar cookies, cranberry/pecan/white chocolate cookies, and fudge. In the center is my new favorite: almond ginger shortbread, with bits of crystalized ginger. Really yummy.

OH YUMMY Karen!! I am interested in the double chocolate espresso cookies recipe, almond ginger shortbread, with bits of crystalized ginger recipe and the 2 cranberry recipes. I want to bake but I think I will wait till after the Holidays. My family is gone or moved away, no co-workers (mine or hub) to give to and my friends are on diets or no carb diets.

OK guys, I posted all the recipes under "Cookies": (but I should have posted the cranberry bars under "bar cookies"). Mod? Help?

Edited to add: I always use unsalted butter unless specified otherwise - I don't think I wrote them up that way.

Karen, I'm afraid I can't take credit for those cookies it was just a poor excuse on my behalf for cookie humor. I wish I could decorate like that, a friend of mine sent me this picture in an e-mail titled why men should not make cookies. I was just trying to interject some humor in the thread, sorry.

Dee, those look just like the ones I used to get at the cookie shop in the mall! Was the cookie peanut butter?
