Cookie production line

On Saturday I went into full-scale Christmas cookie production. Most of them are now being enjoyed in sunny Florida -- the rest of them are being devoured by Ricardo's office.


I set up my dining room table with all my cooling racks, and here's the 1st batch fresh out of the oven.

In a few hours time I had the whole table filled.

I made 3 kinds of cookies: spicy molasses (my personal favorite -- they're REALLY good)...

... key lime thumbprints -- hopefully the Florida natives will appreciate these (and YES, I used real key limes)...

... and finally my famous chocolate chip cookies, back by popular demand!
