My Great Grandmother Lina, loved to made Snicker Doodle Cookies for us and we loved to eat them!  I wish I had her recipe, but this one is close in taste and it is a shortcut recipe so it saves you time.  I think Grandma would have approved. :)

I have lots of leftover baking items that I had planned to use at Christmas time.  I don't want to stuff my cupboards with them, so I am using them up.  My husband loves these cookies, and is very happy with this plan.

Honey Nut Cheesecake Cookies

½ cup butter, softened

4 ounces honey nut cream cheese

1 cup sugar

1 cup all-purpose flour

½ cup pecans

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In medium bowl, cream butter and cream cheese.  Add sugar.  Mix until fluffy.  

  

Add flour.  Mix well.  

 Add pecans.  Mix well.   

Drop by teaspoon 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake 12 to 14 minutes.  Makes 18 cookies.

You can change the flavor of this cookie by simply changing the flavor of cream cheese.  You can also leave the nuts out if you would like.  That is one of the things I love about cooking; you can take a simple recipe and make it your own by adjusting the flavors to suit you.

No-Bake Cookies

2 cups sugar

½ cup butter

½ cup milk

½ cup peanut butter

3 tablespoons cocoa powder

½ teaspoon vanilla

3 cups oatmeal

In large saucepan over medium high heat, combine sugar, butter, and milk.  Heat until boiling and then boil 30 seconds to one minute.  Remove from heat.   

Add peanut butter, cocoa, and vanilla.  Mix well. 

 

Add oatmeal.  Mix well.   

Drop by tablespoon onto waxed paper.  Cool.

When it is too hot outside to heat up your kitchen baking cookies, this is the recipe I make.  When I got married, one of my friends gave me a recipe book with several of her favorite recipes in it and this is one of them.  

  It is a wedding gift that I continue to treasure and think of her every time I use it.
