PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH SOFT SUGAR COOKIES
These drop cookies are like little butter cakes. They are soft, rich, and melt in your mouth. There are some preparation and storage hints I would suggest in making these. I also found this dough very soft and sticky, so I added about 1/2 cup extra flour (use your judgement when you make it), then refrigerated it for about an hour. I still found it extremely soft and sticky, so my solution was to keep a glass of warm water next to me while I formed the cookies. I dipped my cookie scoop (which I recommend using) into the water about every 3 cookies to keep the dough from sticking to it, and I found that worked perfectly, giving me evenly shaped cookies that didn't stick to the scoop. If you're using a spoon you might not have as much trouble, but keep the glass of warm water next to you for you spoons and/or fingersjust in case you find it difficult to push the dough from the spoon. I would also suggest storing them, loosely packed, in an airtight container with wax paper between the layers; if they are touching, eventually they will discolor slightly at those spots where they do touch because of the moisture in them. Even if they do discolor slightly, however, they are still delicious! The recipe is from The Beechmont Inn.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375; line cookie sheets with baking parchment paper for best results, but you can grease or use non-stick spray if necessar-- I use the non-stick spray all the time.
- Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
- Cream together sugar and butter.
- Add eggs one at a time and beat; then add the vanilla and beat.
- Stir the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, into the sugar mixture, stirring until smooth.
- Drop by tablespoons or a small scoop (about 1 tablespoon capacity) onto the prepared cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with additional granulated sugar (I will flatten the tops just very slightly to hold more sugar) and bake for 7-10 minutes, until just firm.
- Wait just a minute and then remove from the cookie sheets and cool on a rack.
- *Asa substitute for the buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice to a measuring cup and add milk to make 1 cup; let stand for 10 minutes before using.

Steps:
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Pulse almonds and hazelnuts in a food processor until very finely chopped. Add candied peels and dates, and pulse until finely chopped. Add almond paste, and pulse to combine. Add jam, and pulse. Add eggs and brown sugar, and pulse. Add flour mixture, and pulse. Transfer dough to an airtight container, and refrigerate overnight (or up to 3 days).
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Using a 2-inch ice cream scoop (1/4 cup), drop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing cookies 3 inches apart. Place 3 almonds close together on top of each cookie. Bake until golden brown, about 14 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.
- Whisk together confectioners' sugar and milk, and brush over cooled cookies. Let stand until set.
CARDAMOM COOKIES
We love the smell and taste of cardamom around the holidays and found this recipe in our local paper. Cardamom tastes like a mixture of ginger and maybe cinnamon and can be very strong. If you're adding more, go with a light hand.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon and flour and reserve.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-hgih speed, beat sugar and butter together until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add egg and beat until thouroughly combined. Reduce speed to low, add flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Roll dough into balls and transfer to baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Carefully press dough with flat bottom of drinking glass and bake until llightly browned, 14 to 16 minutes. Remove from oven and cool 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Add milk, cardamom and cinnamon and beat well. Reduce speed to low and add powdered sugar to reach desired consistency. Spread icing on cooled cookies.
- Note: This icing is fairly soft, and does not harden. If you like your icing to be a bit stiffer, try adding slightly less milk and more confectioners sugar.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so use the best quality chocolate you can find.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at a moderate temperature so that they have a chance to set before they brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving: The cookies will continue to set as they cool, so let them cool completely before serving.
