Christmas Memories VIII

Candy Cane Cookies!!!

Since my Dad was a diabetic, my Mom didn't make a lot of baked goods. But....
at Christmas time, she always made these cookies.

They were a little sticky coming off the pan, but I increased the flour a little and if you use parchment paper they work pretty good. My nephew doesn't think I should share the recipe, so keep it to yourself!


1C Butter
 1 1/2 C Sugar
2 Eggs
3 C Flour
2 tsp Cream of Tarter
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla
1 C Crushed Candy Canes

Cream butter and sugar, add rest of ingredients. Chill dough 1 hour, roll or cut into 1" balls or squares. Bake exactly 8 minutes at 350 degrees.
