My grandmother made the best cookies, period. It didn’t matter what time the year it was, it didn’t matter what day the week it was. When we visited my grandmother, she ALWAYS had one or two kinds of homemade cookies waiting for us. Christmas at my grandmother’s was special. She would have DOZENS of cookie varieties for our family and every guest that came to visit. We swear that she started baking those batches in September just to be ready for the holidays. From her small kitchen she would produce thousands of the most amazing cookies for all to enjoy! I once asked my grandmother what her favorite cookie was, and she told me that they were all her favorites. She elaborated that it wasn’t because they were delicious, it was because her family and friends thought they were delicious. When my grandmother passed, we found a few pieces of paper tucked into the pages of a notebook with her cookie recipes written in her beautiful handwriting. Missing were some recipes, like her vanilla sugar wafers (we believe that she made those from memory), but the recipes for almost all of the cookies she ever made were there. Some instructions were in bits and pieces, but we were able to recreate them fairly accurately. For the first time, I present to you my Grandmother’s all-time favorite cookie recipes. I hope that you make each of these, find your favorite, and share them with your family and friends.
