I make these cookies for Thanksgiving and Christmas as presents. Decorating them in the colors of the season makes for a nice present. If I just would stop nibbling on them, my presents would be larger :) Cookies are not real sweet, but are soft and moist and perfect for tea. Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening |
2 tablespoons milk |
1 teaspoon apple pie spice |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 egg |
2 cups whole wheat flour |
2 teaspoons white sugar |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 pound mini candy-coated chocolates |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). 2. In large bowl, combine first 10 ingredients and blend well. Stir in whole wheat flour. 3. Shape into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with a fork. 4. Combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over each cookie. Decorate with M and M's. 5. Bake in pre-heated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. |
