"What is your favorite kind of Christmas cookie?" - Ali
I have to say i really enjoy a well made oatmeal raisin or oatmeal chocolate chip. The kind where you can taste the clove and cinnamon put into it and it's just the right amount of spice to the oatmeal in order to play off the sweetness of the raisin/chocolate. I also really enjoy a nice crisp gingerbread cookie. I really can't stand the ones that are soft and chewy. I've always been a fan of the kind you need to dunk and soak in milk before it's even possible to chew it without waking someone up from the crunching.
I also love my best friends chocolate chip cookies. She makes the absolute best chocolate chip cookies I have ever tasted! They come out nice and chewy like they just came out of the oven. Even after they have cooled down they are still nice and chewy and soft baked. They are even better to throw in the microwave for about 10 seconds just to get them warm and gooey again. Her secret to keeping them so soft and chewy? Instead of using butter or margarine, use shortening. ^_^
