Uncle Bill's Whipped Shortbread Cookies
I have been making these melt-in-your mouth shortbread cookies for over 40 years. The are so easy and simple to make. Instead of the cherries, you can use sprinkles, half an almond or half a cashew on top of cookies before baking. A thumbprint in the cookie, filled with your choice of jam is also very tasty!

I love making these cookies to get into the Christmas spirit. Great for work treats and loved by kids and adults alike.

I picked this recipe up overseas: peanut butter cookies rolled in sugar then topped with a chocolate kiss. They are my hubbies favourite and he even likes to help.
Gingerbread Cookies
I found this recipe recently on the web, but I believe originally the recipe came from Good Housekeeping magazine. Although I have changed a couple of things from the original.
Sugar Cookies
Soft and chewy inside with a delicious crispy edge. So scrummy-yummy.

Chocolate Chip Cornflake Cookies
These are my all time favourite biscuit. The recipe comes from my maternal grandmother. I have very fond memories of going on summer holidays to her house and enjoying snacking on these incredibly tasty treats. Crunchy on the outside and chewy in the centre - though be careful, they're addictive and the whole batch will be gone before you know it!
Chocolate Star Cookies
Another great cookie cutting project to share with the kids. Once cooled, you can ice them, add sprinkles, dust with icing sugar or simply dip them in melted white chocolate. (They need 2 hrs refrigeration time before rolling out)
Yum Yum Chocolate Cookies
These delicious cookies are like a chocolate shortbread - with coconut and cornflakes. They have a nice bite to the taste which the lemon icing helps to brings out. They are a real family favourite as they are easy and quick to make.
