GRANDMA'S PEPPARKAKOR ~ SWEDISH SPICE COOKIES
This is a family favorite! Grandma always had plenty of cookies for Thanksgiving and Christmas. She was known for her Pepparkakor and Spritz. I'm the only one that has carried on the tradition. My brothers in-law only get these little gems when I make them!

Steps:
- 1. GRANDMA'S DIRECTIONS Sift flour with soda and spices. Cream butter and sugar, add syrup and egg. Add dry ingredients. Mix until well blended. (form dough into a ball) Roll out thin, about 1/16 of an inch, on floured board, and cut into shapes. Bake at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes.
- 2. THIS IS WHAT WORKS FOR ME After the dough is formed into a ball, divide into 4 smaller balls, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for about 30 minutes or so. I also roll the dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Cut into shapes, pop the sheet into the freezer for a couple of minutes. It makes it easy to remove the cut outs from the parchment.
- 3. **** Not stated in Grandma's directions, YOU KEEP ROLLING ALL YOUR TRIMMINGS, UNTIL ALL THE DOUGH IS GONE! It's a labor of love!
GRAMMY'S SPICE COOKIES
This recipe for spice cookies came to The Times from Claire Will of San Francisco after a callout for favorite holiday recipes. At first, it seemed rather plain Jane, but the hefty dose of ground cloves (3/4 teaspoon) was what lured me into testing it, and I have to admit I was skeptical. I was soon a believer. Of the five kinds of cookies I served to a group at a holiday party, those crisp-edged, soft-centered beauties were the first to vanish. One friend texted on his way home, "send recipe for spice cookies a.s.a.p."

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick liners.
- Using an electric mixer, beat 12 tablespoons butter with the granulated sugar, molasses and egg until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Slowly beat in flour, baking soda, spices and salt.
- Shape dough into walnut-size balls and place 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake until firm, about 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on wire racks.
- To make the icing, beat remaining 4 tablespoons butter with the confectioners' sugar until smooth. (Go slowly so you don't create a sugar storm.) Beat in the vanilla and enough cream or milk, and whiskey (if using), to make a spreadable frosting. Slather on fully cooled cookies.

GRANDMA'S ICE BOX COOKIES
A family favorite that Grandma always includes in her cookie tins at Christmas. When melting the chocolate, adding in a few tablespoons of creamy peanut butter (or more, depending on your taste) makes the cookies easier to slice after freezing without really flavoring the chocolate. Easy to keep a frozen log in the freezer to bake in a hurry.

GRANDMA'S CHRISTMAS SPICE CUTOUTS
My great-grandmother made these, and the tradition was passed down in the family-without a written recipe! My mother would always start them the day after Thanksgiving, which was exciting for us kids, as we knew Christmas wasn't far off. They are easy to decorate with family; my grandchildren always look forward to them.-Elaine Phelps, Cornell, Wisconsin

GRANDMA M'S SOFT RAISIN SPICE COOKIES
I have craved these for weeks and it took me that long to find them in her collection. Grandma has been gone for two years and I miss her baking so much. I couldn't find the recipe because she called them Delicious Drop Cakes but they are cookies.
