White Trash... Classy, huh?
I found this recipe earlier this month and whipped up a bunch earlier this week. It was so easy to make! It literally took 15 minutes to whip up. I halved the recipe and still had plenty. The original recipe came from Heather's Helpings blog. Here's a link to the post:

Christmas Cookies
These are the ONLY Christmas cookies that we made when I was growing up. We usually make a double batch of the recipe shown below. Mom said when she copied it over she tripled the recipe from the original. This is a recipe that Grandma Sites makes each year for Christmas, along with a handful of others.
Sugar Cookies
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. oleo
3 beaten eggs
4 1/2 T. milk
1 1/2 t. vanilla
1 T. baking powder
3/4 t. salt
4 1/2 c. flour
Roll out 1/8” thick on floured board. Cut in desired shapes. Sprinkle with colored sugar. Bake at 400° for 5-8 min.
We DO NOT frost these cookies! People think we're weird but these cookies get sprinkled with colored sugar instead of getting frosted. These are the only cookies I think of when I'm hungry for Christmas cookies.
My brother and I like these just barely cooked through. Seth calls them burnt when they have just a hint of tan color on the bottom. Mom likes what Seth calls really burnt ones, the ones where the bottom is a nice toasty brown color.

Daddy Bread
This is a recipe I stumbled upon through e-mails from Lehman's Hardware Store. Aunt Deb and Uncle Gary love going there when they go to Holmes County. I've ordered a few things online from Lehman's, so now I get the e-mails on various deals. There was one on a bread bowl that had a link to this recipe.
Like the Four Cheese Chicken Fettuccine, this was part of the last meal I made for Kurt before he proposed.
Here's the link to Daddy Bread. I've only made it once, but I intend to make it again. It was very good!
Try it this holiday season. It makes three loaves, so you can keep one for home and take a couple to family gatherings.
