WAFFLE-IRON COOKIES
The recipe for these cookies is the easiest to find in my book because the page is a beautiful mess covered with fingerprints, flour smudges and memories of more than 30 Christmases! I made these with my daughters, and now I make them with my granddaughters. -Judy Taylor, Quarryville, Pennsylvania

Yield About 24 two-and-one-half-inch cookie sandwiches
Number Of Ingredients 4
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll dough to a rectangle on a floured board using a lightly floured rolling pin. Dough should be between one-eight and one-quarter-inch thick. Lift dough onto an unbuttered cookie sheet.
- Score half of the sheet of dough in two to two-and-one-half-inch squares, using a sharp knife but not cutting through the dough.
- Bake in the middle of the oven until golden brown - about 30 minutes.
- While dough is still hot, cut scored section from unscored.
- Spread a thin layer of jam onto warm, unscored rectangle of crust. Lay scored section over jam as when making a sandwich.
- Beat egg white with confectioners' sugar, adding enough sugar to make a thin white past that can be piped from a pastry bag, through a tube that has a three-eighth-inch opening.
- Pipe icing in waffle pattern over scored squares. Cut through squares into individual sandwich cookies and dust with confectioners' sugar.

VIENNESE VANILLA COOKIES
Steps:
- Cream butter and add sugar. Add 1/2 cup of flour mixing after each addition. Add remaining ingredients. Shape into a disk and then chill for 30 minutes. You can also put the dough in the freezer at this point.
- Begin to roll the dough the dough so that it is about 1/4-inch thick or a little more. Cut with cookie cutters. Place dough on parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet. I prefer using parchment paper. It's just easier.
- Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Bake for 12 to 13 minutes or until the edges are a bit brown. You may need to lower your oven to 325 degrees F.
- You can also freeze or chill the dough in a log shape rather than a disk. If you do this, simply cut small rounds about 1/4 inch thick and place these rounds on the lined cookie sheet. These bake for 15 minutes. (This works well, if you want to transport dough to a friend's house and have kids form the cookies.)
- Once the cookies come out of the oven, either cool them on the cookie sheet or move the parchment paper to a cookie rack. As the cookies cool, but before they're fully cooled, sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
- Arrange on a plate and don't blink because they'll disappear before you open your eyes. Eat.
- That's the classic Brown family cookie. Without it Christmas simply isn't Christmas. Sometimes I bring a batch from my Chicago home and that simply doesn't work. My sister and mother are upset that the house doesn't smell like Christmas...no cookie smell in the air. I'm often required to make many batches...and the cookies are eaten at all times
- and for all meals.
- These were the cookies we left for Santa...He regularly gobbled them up, leaving only a few crumbs on the plate and a note that said, "These are excellent cookies, the best I've had." In retrospect, the writing looked an awful lot like my father's... If they're good enough for Santa, I think they're good enough for anyone.
