Nutmeg Cookie

Dejavu, I feel like I did this last night minus the blog. I can't believe this is my second to last cookie to blog about and I am speechless! This cookie was even faster than the last I baked. This recipe called for fresh nutmeg but due to the busy weekend I opted for pre bottled nutmeg. If I had more energy today I would have made the trip to the store. But convenience won out.

Mixing the dry ingredients was a breeze. then it called for the butter, egg, and vanilla. In haste I put them in with the dry ingredients instead of pre mixing them seperatly. I think this is why my mixture was alot dry and did not melt down the the way the picture shows. I had to give them an little pat mid way through or they would have come out like green little balls. Good news is they taste great. I will deliver both sets tomorrow. Have a great day and I will be back in 4 days with my final blog. The best part of having these daily deadlines is that it keeps me accountable. I will miss this....

  1. Gotta love those easy recipes especially after a busy weekend. They look great.

    I can hardly believe you girls are almost done with the book. I'm sure you will put your heads together and find something else to keep you "accountable!" Theresa G.

  2. Angie what an up close and personal way to find out which cookies in a cook book are no brainers and which ones you might like to fuss a little with. Just bake your way through the whole book. Yours look so cute in their packages all ready to be delivered.

    I think you Julia's could just blog about your everyday lives. That alone has been very entertaining. L. Sharon
