Cookie Tin With Homemade Cookies

RE: Cookie Tin With Homemade Cookies Post by Deborah Hill (1) | (01/03/2008) Contact This is a wonderful suggestion. I also make various homemade gifts, from toiletries to Christmas decorations to bake goods. I have also made hot chocolate mixes or various beverages mixes or ingredients with recipes or a mini homemade cookbook. You can also find great tins at JoAnn Fabrics when they have 70% or more off. Many are less than a dollar.

I find you can use pretty much any chopped nut in them (maybe not peanuts). Pretty much every recipe book has a recipe for one of those names. The Walnut Balls recipe link above looks pretty much like the one I use. They are dense, like balls of shortcake and have no eggs or other leavening. My very favorite Christmas cookie.

I made some homemade fudge and homemade beef jerky for my in laws. I also found the tins at garage sales and the goodwill. The most expensive part of the whole gift was the shipping!! RE: Cookie Tin With Homemade Cookies Post By Nellio (Guest Post) (12/05/2007) I'm wondering what the round white cookies in the tin are called and if you'd share the recipe? I've been wanting a recipe for those because they are Delicious...but I have no idea what you call them.

RE: Cookie Tin With Homemade Cookies Post By Chris (Guest Post) (12/04/2007) I have also found beautiful Christmas tins at garage sales. Plan on making homemade cookies as well and giving them as gifts to coworkers. Your cookies look yummy. Have a Merry Christmas.
