Best Cookie 2009 goes to Rhonda Jeffers! Jeffers took the gold at our Annual Cookie Contest, coupled this year with a Family Christmas Movie night.
“No family secret or anything, just something I threw together yesterday,” says the cookie pro.
Want a taste? Here it is:
You’ll need:
- 1 package of sugar cookie mix
- 3 oz of cream cheese (softened)
- 1 stick of butter (softened)
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of chopped pecans
- 1 can cream cheese icing
- finely chopped pecans for garnish
Cream the butter and cream cheese until fluffy, add the egg and vanilla and mix well. Add the cookie mix. Mix until soft dough forms, stir in the pecans. Bake in 350-degree oven 8-10 minutes or until edges start to brown and cookies are set.
Microwave the icing for a few seconds (until it’s kinda runny), drizzle over cookies and sprinkle finely chopped nuts over the icing. Voila!
