Almond Joy Macaroons should be renamed Yucky Yuk Things.
Well, maybe not that bad. I'd only eat one because I'm not mad keen on coconut and dislike almonds. The plus side of that is I might avoid strychnine poisoning one day.

Thanks, Zip. I think I'll skip on this recipe since I'm iffy with it in the first place. I'll just stick with the three I already have now. That is enough work...whew!

Chirstmas cookies I made for my nephew's teachers and to give to my friends. I was super busy and tired so I forgot to take a picture until they've all gone into containers.

You know what blows my mind? It's cardamom, (not picking on you Lola, any copy-and-paster is absolved of responsibility, ) and awhile back on Top Chef Just Desserts not one but two of the pastry chefs kept saying "cardamon" in interviews. How can you be a professional chef and not know the correct name of a common spice?

Those cookies do look really good though, Lola.

To be honest, I don't even know that spice, and I don't use it either. I omitted it and added an extra 1/2 tsp. cinnamon.

I ate a few and gave the rest away. I have a week left to lose down another inch to win a bet.

Anyways, I have to put away the mixer (darn heavy thang) and stop making cookies for a while. My mom is getting a bit upset that I keep on baking and giving everything away, hehehe.

It's a savory spice, used a lot in Indian cooking. Very pungent. Can come as whole brown seeds, or ground up. Cinnamon probably tasted much better.
