I may be a little late in terms of publishing posts that help others for the holiday but there is still time. Â This is a cookie recipe that you make the dough into a log, let it set in the fridge and then slice it when you are ready to bake it. Â The cookies are also topped with a buttercream frosting. Â I thought this type of frosting was only reserved for cakes.
I would say the frosting is a good touch because the cookie is light. Â I think if I tried this recipe again I would do more of a glaze for a topping. Â So feel free to try either.

I love the Hanukkah recipe! If I may, I’d like to invite you to submit your photos to the new YumGoggle, a photo sharing site with the philosophy that if you worked hard to cook it and photograph it, we should show it off! Hope to see you there soon! http://www.yumgoggle.com/gallery/
