Who doesn’t love Christmas cookies? I can’t get enough of them. Seriously, there’s not a single kind of cookie I can’t eat a couple dozen of, as long as I’ve also got a tall, cold glass of skim milk (skim’s better for the waistline, you know). All cookies, that is, except maybe sugar cookies. I’ve never understood the appeal of those things. If you’ve got other cookie options, sugar cookies definitely seem like a wasted choice.
Today’s holiday-like recipe is for watermelon cookies. Before you scoff at the notion of making a Christmas cookie shaped like a summertime favorite, I should remind you that watermelon’s color scheme (red, white and green) is a whole lot more holiday-appropriate than most sugar cookies (plain, plain, and plain).
I was going to post the recipe in this entry, but like most made-from-scratch cookie recipes (i.e., the very best kind of cookies), it’s a bit lengthy, so I’ll just link to the recipe instead and post the above photo of the finished product. Enjoy!
