Almond Bars

Submitted by: Sandy Kerrison 
'This is one of my favorite recipes for last-minute school bake sales,' writes Sandy Kerrison from her home in Lockport, New York. 'The cake-like snacks are the first items to go...that is, if they're not grabbed by a teacher first. I also include them in Christmas cookie gift baskets.'

Anise Cookies (Springerle)

Submitted by: judy 
This is a 100 year old recipe from Germany. I use it every Christmas. Its traditionally served with black coffee to dunk the cookie in. I prefer to eat them when they are still warm as the lemon flavor and the anise is a wonderful combination and the lemon is stronger at that time.

Mother prepared these soft cookies for holidays and special-occasion meals. My seven siblings and I gobbled them up as fast as she made them. I still can't resist the cinnamon-sugar coating. --Jerri Moror, Rio Rancho, New Mexico

My mother used to bake these mouth-watering cookies for an after-school treat. Though it's been 55 years since I first found out about them, I still savor the smell that fills the house as these cookies bake. They stay moist and fresh for a long time, or the dough can be stored in the refrigerator for several days so you can bake as you need them.
