National Shortbread Day.

 

Today is National Shortbread Day.

What is a Shortbread Cookie? Well “Shortbread or shortie is a traditional Scottish biscuit usually made from one part white sugar, two parts butter, and three to four parts plain wheat flour. Unlike many other biscuits and baked goods, shortbread does not contain any leavening, such as baking powder or baking soda. Shortbread is widely associated with Christmas and Hogmanay festivities in Scotland, and some Scottish brands are exported around the world.” Click HERE to read more on the history of this little cookie.

While reading some of the wonderful history around Traditional Scottish Shortbread Cookies, I came across The Daring Gourmet. She has a beautiful little story of her trip to Scotland and her recipe.

Whipped Cream Cookies

 

Today is National Whipped Cream day and I got to thinking about how Cool Whip makes some yummy cookies. So I went to All Recipes and found a wonderful recipe for Some Cool Whip Cookies.

“Whipped cream is a sweet treat that we’ve been creating for centuries. As air is beaten into milk with a high enough fat content, the fats trap the air in tiny bubbles. With enough bubbles, the cream loses its liquid qualities and starts to hold its shape. The earliest recipes for whipped cream date back to Italy in the mid 1500’s. Not actually called “whipped cream” until the late 1600’s in England, early recipes dubbed the confection “snow milk” and recommended beating heavy cream with a willow branch until foamy. Now that we have sanitized whisks and modern food processing machinery, whipped cream is widely available in a range of flavors and textures. You can find chocolate whipped cream, mint whipped cream, and tubs of whipped-cream substitute that never goes flat. Then there’s heavy whipped cream, which has a higher fat content for a richer taste and sturdier peaks. Whether you like the convenience of whipped topping from a can or the sweet satisfaction of whisking up a homemade batch, be sure to celebrate the joys that whipped cream has brought you personally —and to all of us around the world —on National Whipped Cream Day this January 5.”

National Pfeffernusse Cookie Day

 

Today is National Pfeffermusse Cookie Day. Did you know “Pfeffernusse, also known as ‘pepernoten’ or peppernuts, originated from Central Europe. A confectioner from Offenbach am Main, named Johann Fleischmann, is believed to have created the recipe in 1753. Since then, the cookie became very popular, attracting the interest of so many people, including renowned individuals like Felix Mendelssohn.” Learn more about this cookie HERE.

All Recipes has a great recipe HERE.

National Cookie Exchange Day

The Spruce Eats has a great way to throw the Ultimate Cookie Exchange Party.

“A cookie exchange party is a fabulous way to celebrate the holidays, or ring in the New Year. Nothing brings us together like baked goods, and unlike a White Elephant party where the guests bring gifts, a cookie swap event asks each guest to show up with a dozen or more home-baked cookies. At the party, everyone gets to sample an assortment of cookies baked by other guests, and then leaves with a take-away container of their favorite cookies—and a whole lot of delicious cookie recipes. Host a cookie exchange for the ones you love with our complete party planning guide, including a detailed timeline.”

Seven Layer Magic Cookie Bars.

These are a staple that I make every year. They are perfectly sweet and crunchy, but not so much so that you get a cavity just eating one. I wanted to share this recipe from All Recipes.

These cookies have an interesting start “The tale behind the name Hello Dollys is probably the most fun. It’s rumored that the recipe became popular when Carol Channing was starring in Broadway’s Hello Dolly! musical, according to Southern Living. Thus, the bars were named for the show, though any real tie to the musical is still a mystery.”
