White Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Cookies

Hello, Readers!  Sorry for the delay in posting - work has been busy and I am still trying to find a good sandwich loaf recipe.  Here is a recipe for cookies that I recently made, from Picky Palate.  I have made a lot of her sweet recipes and they always turn out delicious.  I highly recommend checking out her blog.

Below are some pictures of the cooking baking process:

Enjoy!

Margarita Cookies

This isn't the first use of the KitchenAid - but I the 1st recipe that I actually took pictures.  Please bear with me as I hope my photography skills improve.

Who doesn't love a margarita?  I know I am always down for a little tequila. I found this recipe at Smitten Kitchen - one of my new favorite kitchen blogs.  Deb lives in Manhattan, NY and is an inspiration because she makes wonderful, gourmet food from a tiny kitchen.  She also has some great tips on maximizing the most space in your tiny kitchen - something I have trouble doing.

So, this is her recipe for Margarita Cookies.  I won't post the entire recipe - but here is a link: cookies.
Here are my photos from the recipe journey!

Ingredients: Butter, Confectioner's Sugar, Salt, Flour, Tequila, Grated lime & orange zest, Egg yolk

Getting ready to soften the butter

Before I formed the ball

Spit into 2- just an estimate

Check out all that lime and orange zest!

Rolled in sugar & salt, Cut into cookies using my bench scraper

Try not to eat too much dough

Cooling off before I gobble them down

The recipe states it makes about 50 cookies.  I got around 62 because some of my sizes were off.  A helpful hint: Roll the dough into 4 logs instead of 2 to get equal width.  If you make the recipe, you'll know what I'm talking about. 

ENJOY!
