Form Cookies
My ex-mother-in-law is a wonderful cook. Her home was always full of delicious food, especially around the "Holidays" and one of my favorites were her cut-out cookies. This is the best form cookie recipe I have ever made. This is a "hand" made cookie! I still make these every Christmas!! They are good with or without icing, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
