Christmas Cookie Number Four: Crush it

12:48 pm Christmas Cookies

Here’s a twist on a couple of old favorites. Like sugar cookies? Like butterscotch and peppermint and other hard candies? Make your sugar cookie dough, and then use your rolling pin or mallet to crush some hard candies. Sprinkle them over the tops of your sugar cookies and bake as you normally would.

Speaking of rolling pins and mallets, I am looking for a tip or seven about what to do with my kitchen implements. I love gadgets, and there are several that I would love to have, but I just don’t have any place to put them. Short of buying a dedicated kitchen tool storage cabinet, do you have any ideas for me? I do have a place I could put such a cabinet, but I would prefer to avoid that option.

    A rolling pin rests nicely on the tines of a steel rake head. You know, the garden rake. Paint it up, lay your rolling pin there, and hang other utensils from the tines!
