Eggnog Cookies I
These cookies will sadly not win any beauty pageants. Mine turned out lumpy and bumpy after trying to manhandle the sticky dough into a passable shape, and I can see that the suggestion to use a cookie press or pastry bag would have resulted in a prettier product. That being said, the taste and texture is very nice, which was a happy surprise. I don't think these cookies will "wow" anyone or be highly sought after on a cookie plate, but they are a tasty addition.

Homemade Crispy Seasoned French Fries
How can you improve upon fried potatoes? By battering them, of course :) I thought this was a simple yet pretty tasty recipe. Definitely follow the directions of placing potatoes in the oil one by one, or you will have clumps o' fries (although that makes it pretty easy to turn them over!) I used the restaurant Red Robin's seasoning, which had pretty much the ingredients listed here, making it that much simpler.

Chicken Katsu
I've had some sort of "cooker's block" when it comes to frying chicken correctly, so I really appreciated this recipe - all the coating stayed on the chicken as it cooked, and the result was moist and delicious. It was the first time I had used panko crumbs, and actually, this ended up being the recipe on the back of the box, so apparently it is tried and true. You will need to use an exciting sauce to pep up the flavors of your meal as recommended, since there is nothing overtly exotic about the chicken itself.
